call for blog submission: the indian american story

The Indian American Story is a new blog established by the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Program. As part of the Program's Indian American heritage project, Homespun, The Indian American Story is a UC-driven blog to provide a space to discuss the latest Indian American issues, culture, etc.

So far, however, they haven't received any submissions. I recently heard from them because they're putting the call out, particularly to younger folks. Your submissions can be anything, ranging from personal narratives to event announcements. The purpose of the blog is to better inform and archive Indian American history and community activities on the internet.

For inquiries regarding submissions, contact Ricky Leung at leungw@si.edu. HomeSpun is also collecting donations with the ultimate goal of creating a traveling exhibition and middle-school curriculum guide, both for Indian American history. Learn more about HomeSpun here.
