May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month. What started as a weeklong proclamation in 1979 has become a month of remembering, honoring, and celebrating the rich culture and history of these communities.  At Talkiatry, it is our philosophy to treat every person with respect and dignity, so it's important to uplift stories and voices during AANHPI Heritage Month!

In this course, you’ll get a quick overview of AANHPI history in the United States. You’ll also learn what the term “AAPI” means, including learning why some people prefer other terms. Then, you’ll explore ways to honor this month, including learning about AANHPI contributions in STEM, the arts, politics and community, and sports.
