GBH 亞美傳統月放映的部分影片

 

May 27, 2022

Resilience, ingenuity, creativity. Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders have enriched American history, society and culture and are instrumental to our past, present and future. This month, and every month, we celebrate the wide array of values, beliefs and traditions and AAPI communities' extraordinary impact on our national identity. As violence and discrimination against AAPI communities and individuals continue, it is imperative that we stand against racism and remain committed to highlighting AAPI voices and advancing understanding, dignity and justice. Explore these stories throughout the month with this collection presented by GBH and GBH WORLD.
