2022 Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month Community Panel
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, a tribute to and celebration of the cultures, histories, contributions, and achievements of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders across the country. This is a time, as it is always the time, to spread awareness and gain knowledge about the stories of these communities nation-wide and continue to learn about, value, and appreciate our own diverse Northshore community. In our house, we celebrate the differences between and among us and respect every individual who is a part of it.
As we recognize Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, the Racial and Educational Justice Department has planned a virtual AAPI Heritage Month Community Panel on Tuesday, May 31st from 4:30 - 5:15 p.m. Panelists will include Northshore students and staff.
