Asian Pacific American Heritage Month (APAHM) has been officially observed nationwide since 1990. This month offers a chance for us to celebrate Asian and Pacific Islander community cultures, contributions, histories and traditions. The theme, Common Roots, calls to mind the unique journeys and contributions of the many diverse communities across Asian and Pacific Islander diasporas, while highlighting the beauty we create together as we forge connections across backgrounds and generations – just as every individual root of a plant shares in nourishing each leaf and branch, so the entire being thrives.
