Two Pennsylvania state senators introduced on Thursday a bill that incorporates Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) instruction in K-12 schools. Maria Collett and Nikil Saval, will require the Department of Education to create “an integrated curriculum that includes AAPI persons, history and contributions to American society” and provide AAPI-related materials to schools.
Educators in the state of Florida will soon be required to teach Asian American and Pacific Islander history as part of recent education curriculum signed by.
From the struggles of AAPI healthcare workers to the stories of Asian artists and small businesses, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month recognizes stories of resilience, community and culture.
