Asian American and Pacific Islander history is American history, but the unique experiences, challenges, and contributions of AAPIs are rarely taught in American schools. For many Americans of Asian American or Pacific Islander descent who grew up in the United States, there continues to be a startling lack of opportunity to learn about our own history in our country.
