Celebrate our Asian heritage May is Asian Pacific American Heritage month.
Every group gets a month.
Each group celebrates their heritage and those qualities that make their experience here unique. It is one of those things that is only a token gesture, but if it wasn t for this small act, there would be nothing that celebrates who and what we are. I am constantly amazed that even those who I consider unfriendly to this concept called diversity somehow honor these groups during the months that are designated. I encourage the effort even if it is clumsy at best. Yet, some organizations that I always thought embraced differences seem to drop the ball and fail to honor the Asian Heritage month.
