#asianpacificamericanheritagemonth This is yet another #asianpacificislanders #tbrstack for me. There are a lot of popular Chinese American authors that helped pave the way for other Asian American women to be published. In this #bookstack, I have a book by Vaddey Ratner, a Cambodian survivor of the Khmer Rouge regime. A young Indian woman named Madhuri Vijay found great popularity this past year with her debut novel "The Far Field." Amy Tan is probably the most important author in that stack. She was the one that led the way for Asian American women's stories to be published loved, and cherished in America. "The Joy Luck Club" was a godsend. She is the person many Asian American girls and women looked to when they searched for stories that related to who we are in America. Over the years, I grew to love Lisa See's work starting with "Peony in Love." Celeste Ng reminds me of what it's like to be mixed, growing up in the midwest. And Helen Hoang is breaking barriers as a writer with autism. QOTD: Who are some of your favorite authors of Asian descent?

Vincent, 54, is a Nonbinary Transmasculine & Queer Asian Pacific Islander in Pittsburgh #AMPLIFY "My parents and extended family do not accept my gender or sexuality. It was obvious that I was genderqueer at a very young age (5). My family severely physically and emotionally abused me for my whole life and made me homeless when I came out as Queer at 19. I found support within the very small NC LGBT community where I lived at the time. Other Queer folks gave me a couch to sleep on and helped me to get a job at the local gay bar."

My back turned to setting sun 🌅 My heart breaks for #india 🇮🇳🙏🏽 My heart breaks for #palestine 🇵🇸🙏🏽 My heart breaks for #colombia 🇨🇴🙏🏽 My heart breaks for the world 🌎🌍🌏🙏🏽 I'm navigating my heartbreak and my need to hold space for myself at the same time. I'm working on that balance between empathy and feeling powerless. As an ENFJ-A it's impossible for me to see turmoil and not be proactive. Not provide solutions and not remedy the issue. I can not stand by and just watch injustice. I'm so honored to have such amazing friends like @withlovedivya and @anjalirimi (amongst so many other beautiful souls) who are doing the work for our communities. Using their platforms and abilities to create fundraisers which provides direct aid to those in need. Navigating Mental Health admist the chaos in this world has proved to be challenging. However I'm working on understand that two things can exist - my need to help and my need for self care. I'm a work in progress but I wouldn't have it any other way. To donate to those in need here are the fundraisers for me friends - Divya partnered with @desaifoundation https://www.facebook.com/donate/367929771273584/?fundraiser_source=external_url Anjali didi is with @parivarbayarea and SITAL (Save Indian Trans All Indian Lives) https://gofund.me/28216340 https://bit.ly/3tZL9HW Cashapp: $parivarbayarea Venmo: @anjalirimi #api #asianpacificislander #asianamericanheritagemonth #indian #indocaribbean #india #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #goldenhour #lanapatel (at Temescal Valley, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPPf89ygBfU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Someone at the store just gave me a compliment and said I was “exotic” then asked if I was Hawaiian. Close lol! I’m Filipino! Islanders (like Hawaiians) of course in Asia and mixed with Spanish. I didn’t say all that of course haha. 🇵🇭 ⭐️ ☀️ 🙌 #asianpacificislander #filipina

Did you know…that the costs of over-the-counter medications will be reimbursed under a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Health Savings Account (HSA), or Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) only if the medications are purchased with a doctor’s prescription?

It's #asianpacificamericanheritagemonth. If you're looking for some recent titles, try these. I was reading on @penguinrandomhouse how important it is to read authors from all regions of Asia. Here, you'll find Indian, Korean, Chinese and Filipino. This month, I'll share more #asianpacificamerican authors, as well as other #asianpacificislanders books that I love. So stay tuned to this feed. Note: I had a little helping hand this morning.😉 https://www.instagram.com/p/B_94a0wgXFi/?igshid=w4xz5z5sawyq

Did you catch our IG Live with @getplume yesterday? It was hosted by yours truly with guest the powerhouse Trans activist @anjalirimi didi with @parivarbayarea the prolific Trans activist @ferozasyedatl didi and the amazing @mr.thaliwallah with @zameenco we came together to launch the very first "Breaking Bread With Trans Leaders" event. The event for those who didn't attend ( you can catch it on @getplume IG and Facebook along with @parivarbayarea IG and Facebook) was an intimate conversation with Trans Leaders and allies on what's happening in India (they are heavily impacted right now by the virus and a cyclone just hit and devastated three of the states that have been the hardest hit by everything prior), what's going on with Trans folks on India and how their access to resources are impacted at this time and we spoke about ways in which we can support. Parivar created SITAL - Save All Trans Indian All India Lives where there is a major fundraising effort to provide resources for our Trans community. Local community in India are making sure to get food and resources directly to the hijra community. During our IG live we raised over 1K but I know we can raise more! Please go to @parivarbayarea for the gofund.me so you can donate. You can also support by donating to the venmo and cash app as well. Every dollar counts, we have literal lives to save. 🏳️‍⚧️🇮🇳 https://gofund.me/28216340 https://bit.ly/3tZL9HW Cashapp: $parivarbayarea Venmo: @anjalirimi #parivar #sital #saveindia #trans #transgender #hijra #fundraiser #mutualaid #india #indian #southasian #desi #may #aahm #api #asianamericanheritagemonth #asianpacificislander #savinglives (at Parivar Bay Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPKzhsHAnEF/?utm_medium=tumblr
