The aim of this project is for you to learn about Asians and Asian American Pacific Islanders who have made an impact on society or culture, and to celebrate them by sharing what you’ve learned. We encourage you to investigate your featured person through books, articles, websites, videos or documentary programs, and more. Here are a few links that may be helpful in getting started, but you need not limit your resources to these.
