Asian Americans Have Always Fought for Their Place in the U.S.

1. Reflection Questions

How do the stories highlighted in this video support or challenge what you previously knew about US History? 

What are some similarities between the stories shared? What are some differences? 

 

2. Take Action

Spread Awareness. Many people don’t know about the unique and vastly different contributions that Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander community members have played in several historical milestones in the United States. The free PBS Docu-Series Asian Americans highlight these contributions and several others. Is there someone in your friend, community or family circle that you can watch this series with to help elevate these experiences?

3. Healing + Resilience

Taking information breaks. Sometimes that amount of information in the world can be overwhelming, especially if it all feels like bad or hard news. If you start to feel overwhelmed by learning too much information too fast, take an information break! Take some time to talk with someone about what you’re learning without taking in any more information. You can also write your thoughts in a journal or check out this link for journal apps, online diaries and digital scrapbooks.
