AAPI Voices: Amplifying the Voices of Asian Pacific America

New data-driven storytelling project from 18 Million Rising and National Asian American Survey



Happy Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. If you haven't checked it out already, I want to point your attention to the hot content coming out of the newly launched AAPI Voices, a collection of curated writing by AAPI journalists, activists, researchers, artists, bloggers, and culture creators.

A collaboration between our friends at 18 Million Rising and National Asian American Survey, each piece featured in the #AAPIVoices project will highlight data related to our communities and experiences. Their aim is to combine the power of compelling data with the brilliance of storytelling to paint a fuller, truer picture of what it means to be AAPI today.

Each week in May, in observance of Heritage Month, posts in AAPI Voices will focus on a different themed topic: Racial Identity and Categorization; Health; Immigration; Age and Generational Differences; and Education. Read it all here, and check back throughout the month for new, fresh content.
