#DearAsianStories & #DearPasifikaStories
In honor of API Heritage Month, #DearAsianStories/#DearPasifikaStories is a social media campaign led by Dear Asian Youth, NextShark, Asian Americans Advancing Justice | AAJC, and Zenerations to empower Asian and Pacific Islander voices across the globe by raising awareness, amplifying API voices, and uniting against API hate.
This is a showcase for their stories of what it was like to grow up Asian — whether that be moments of pride, crucibles of personal significance, reflections on cultural values, or experienced animosity.
We invite YOU to participate in our campaign by posting a photo on Instagram with the hashtag #DearAsianStories or #DearPasifikaStories or submitting through our anonymous form and sharing your story of what it was like to grow up as an API!
