✨ In honor of Asian American Pacific Islander month, I thought this deserved to have a permanent place on my page. ✨ As a girl born in the small island of American Samoa 🇦🇸 now living in the mainland, it’s nice to tap into my roots. It reminds me of where I came from and who I am amidst the hustle and bustle of the Capitol of where I now live. #aapiheritagemonth #aapipride Swipe left for a high school throwback with one of my favorite teine Samoa, Ms. Sally ❤️
May💐 Has been a month of so much AAPI pride and ❤️ I love my culture so much as it’s a part of me that makes up who I am.

Being able to share this month with so many talented AAPI performers is a blessing and I’m so thankful I get to share the stage with all my AAPI Fam. Not only was I given lots of opportunities this month but I also discovered new love unexpectedly and I’m excited to see where this new adventure goes🥰 Cheers to SIMPIIIIIIINNNGGG🥹 #trans #translove #dragqueen #bayareadrag #loveislove #aapiheritagemonth #may #explore #explorepage #queer #drag #aapipride #filipinx #fijian

Approximately 28% of Asian Americans have limited English proficiency, which can hinder communication with dental providers and understanding of oral health information. That's why we take the time to listen, learn, and adapt our approach to suit our patient's cultural needs.

For this Memorial Day weekend, I chose a quote from one of my greatest heroes and inspirations, the late US Senator from Hawaii and Medal of Honor recipient Daniel Inouye. Someday I hope to see a movie made about his life- a soldier who lost his arm fighting for his country in the 442nd regiment during WW2 while his fellow Japanese Americans were forced behind barbed wire in various prison camps throughout the US; a rehabilitated veteran who later became the highest ranking AAPI politician of his time, as senator from the newly annexed state of Hawaii; an outspoken and tireless advocate for equality and justice for all Americans. I was lucky enough to have met him once while he was alive, and on this Memorial Day weekend I will be thinking of all those who served with him and after him, who could not come home to be celebrated. #aapiheritagemonth #aapipride #memorialday #QOTD #mood #instagood #dermatology #skincare #skincarejunkie #beauty #skin #aesthetics #botox #antiaging #plasticsurgery #doctor #dermatologist #aesthetic #medical #medicine #health #cosmetics #skincareroutine #naturalskincare #acne #microneedling #cosmetic #dailyinspiration #inspo #discoverunder10K

Their mission is to ensure that their quests “Eat Good. Do Good. Feel Good after a visit to Silantra.

Cindy and Sam have always been deeply invested in giving back to their community. Over the years, they have donated tens of thousands of dollars and thousands of pounds of food to local nonprofits like Power Packs Project, Water Street Mission, Lancaster Food Hub, and more. They now host fundraisers where they dedicate a day to a local organization and donate a generous percentage of the sales to give back to their mission.

I had the honor of baking some ube cookies for @acttochange for the 6th annual National AAPI Day Against Bullying and Hate. Grateful to my friend @deck723 who tapped me for this project and understands my passion to help and my pride in my Filipino heritage! My fellow AAPIs can probably tell you when their first brush with racially-charged bullying was because one never forgets. I was only 8 when another kid told me to “Go back to Vietnam where you came from.” I recall the confusion I felt, knowing that I was an American-born Filipina and belonged here just like everyone else in my class. And while this was many many years ago, this still happens everyday to kids who look like me. We can’t ignore these types of interactions that happen to our AAPI youth. NO ONE should ever be made to feel that they don’t belong because of their appearance, their heritage, or their culture. When hate goes unchecked, it grows, and evolves from microaggressions, to blatant hateful words, and eventually to physical violence. As we celebrate AAPI heritage month, be part of the solution to make our world safer and more supportive of our AAPI youth as well as all those who are marginalized. Kids deserve a world where they can thrive and feel proud of their unique identities. We can work together to make this world kinder to all. ❤️
So excited to share this illustration I created for @asiangirlsignite to rewrite the narrative of AANHPI youth mental health! 💜 Asian Girls Ignite is a non-profit organization that creates spaces for AANHPI girls and gender-expansive youth to explore and define their identity on their own terms. I created this piece for their campaign, “Spark Courage: Igniting AANHPI Youth Mental Empowerment”, in honor of AANHPI Heritage Month and Mental Health Awareness Month. ✨ As an Asian American who’s lived with depression for as long as I can remember, it took me a long time before I was able to talk about mental health and seek help. Growing up, I was never able to openly talk about my mental illness and I carried a lot of internalized shame for years. When I finally started going to therapy, it literally saved my life. I know so many of us are unable to seek the help that we need. There’s so much stigma surrounding mental illness, especially in Asian cultures. This is why organizations like AGI are so important - I know it would have made such a huge difference in my life if I had access to an organization like theirs when I was growing up. That’s why I’m so excited to collaborate with them and support their campaign. I would love for them to meet their fundraising goal of $20,000 to support their educational programs. Please help AGI reach their goal by donating via the link in my bio. 💕 Thank you for your support! #AsianGirlsIgnite #AANHPIHeritageMonth #AAPIHertitageMonth #AANHPImentalhealthday #AAPIMentalHealth #AsianMentalHealthMatters #AsianMentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #StopAAPIHate #StopAsianHate #AAPIYouth #AAPIStrong #AAPIPride #AAPIRepresentation #AAPIHeritage #AAPIExcellence #AAPIVoices #GiveInMay

Did you know? ~ Você sabia? Cerca de 6% da população dos EUA tem raízes asiáticas ou das ilhas do Pacífico. FYI: No Canadá, quase metade da população imigrante é originária da Ásia. No mês de maio, as instituições governamentais desses países promovem eventos culturais e os museus apresentam exposições especiais para educar a população.
Besides immersing yourself in another country or living in someone else's home for a year, one of the best ways you can better understand a culture is to read a story. Read several while you're at it, because all #AAPI voices aren't the same just like all Black voices and Latinx voices and more aren't the same. Check out a few of these titles (if you dare!): 📘Dawn Raid by Pauline (Vaeluaga) Smith: 1976 | A 13-year-old girl's older brother starts talking about marches and protests and overstayers, and how #PacificIslanders like them are being bullied by the police for their passports and papers... 📗All You Can Ever Know by Nicole Chung: Growing up in Oregon, Nicole always believed the story her white adoptive parents told about her #KoreanImmigrant birth parents. As an adult—and a pregnant mother-to-be—Chung discovers that her biological family and origin story are more complicated than she knew. 📕Bengali Harlem by @vivekbald1857: Delve into the #forgottenhistory of #BengaliMen who arrived via Ellis Island as silk traders and ship workers, and who made new homes in Black, Hispanic, and Creole neighborhoods. 📙Blame This on the Boogie by @rinayay: Ayuyang chronicles growing up #FilipinoAmerican in Pittsburgh, under the lights of disco and the silver screen in this colorful, exuberant graphic memoir. 📔The Best We Could Do by @teabuoy: This deeply intimate illustrated memoir depicts Bui's family in war-torn Vietnam, their escape to the U.S., and the lasting effects of displacement. 📘Dear Girls by @aliwong: Intimate Tales, Untold Secrets & Advice for Living Your Best Life | Stories from the comedian's college study abroad experience in #Vietnam and more. 📗The Dream Builders by @oindrilamukherjee1: After living in the US for years, Maneka Roy returns home to India to mourn the loss of her mother and finds herself in a new world... ...got any I should add to this list?
I was finally able to bring this idea to life at @circusofsin and I'm so happy! As always, thank y'all so much for the wonderful photos. And kudos to @princxslayher for not only filling in last minute, but incorporating me into his act two minutes before he went on haha!
