  • Akla Stands with Asian American and Pacific Islander (AA/PI) and Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) Communities of Alaska
    ALASKA LIBRARY ASSOCIATION PO BOX 81084, FAIRBANKS, AK 99708 WWW.AKLA.ORG WWWWWW.AKLA.ORG AkLA stands with Asian American and Pacific Islander (AA/PI) and Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) Communities of Alaska The Alaska Library Association stands with library workers, patrons, and the communities we serve, who are discriminated against and are subject to violence based on their race or ethnicity. We do this in support of our colleagues in the Asian Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA “Statement Against Anti-Asian Violence”) and the Black Caucus of The American Library Association (BCALA “Statement Condemning Increased Violence and Racism Towards Black Americans and People of Color”). To this day, many Alaskans are living with trauma resulting from America’s legacy of cultural erasure and racism. In particular, Alaska Natives have suffered and continue to suffer. Despite brave and tireless advocacy by individuals and organizations, institutional racism and systems of oppression remain to this day, resisting growing efforts to tear them down. Many Asian American and Pacific Islander, Black, Indigenous and other People of Color make Alaska their home today. The city of Anchorage boasts the three most ethno-racially diverse neighborhoods in the country1. AA/PI and BIPOC people represent ~42% of Alaska’s total population and are integral to our libraries and the communities we serve (U.S. Census Quick Facts Alaska). As of 2019, 7.9 percent of Alaskans reported Asian or Pacific Islander descent and Alaska Economic Trends (2014) reported that, “people of Asian and Pacific Islander descent form the fastest-growing racial group in Alaska, expanding by 60 percent between 2000 and 2010 — a gain of more than 17,000 people.” Libraries, at their core value, are communities where all are welcome.

  • Asian American-Pacific Islanders
    CB15-FF.07 April 29, 2015 Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month: May 2015 In 1978, a joint congressional resolution established Asian/Pacific American Heritage Week. The first 10 days of May were chosen to coincide with two important milestones in Asian/Pacific American history: the arrival in the United States of the first Japanese immigrants (May 7, 1843) and contributions of Chinese workers to the building of the transcontinental railroad, completed May 10, 1869. In 1992, Congress expanded the observance to a monthlong celebration. Per a 1997 U.S. Office of Management and Budget directive, the Asian or Pacific Islander racial category was separated into two categories: one being Asian and the other Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander. Thus, this Facts for Features contains a section for each.

  • Dear Families, As You May Know, May Is Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month. This Is the Time When We Celebrate the Culture, H
    May 12, 2021 Dear Families, As you may know, May is Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month. This is the time when we celebrate the culture, history, and contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) in the United States. I am always humbled when I think about the role Asian and Pacific Americans played in the formation of this city and country. From building the first transcontinental railroad to fighting for America throughout the different wars, these communities have deep roots throughout our nation. And they have made important contributions as small business owners, teachers, doctors, artists, scientists, in technology fields, and in so many other ways. As Chancellor, it is important to me that our students and educators explore the rich traditions and achievements of people of AAPI heritage. It’s also important to have the hard discussions about the horrific rise in violence against our fellow AAPI New Yorkers and Americans. In schools, we are supporting this by providing curriculum resources accessible to educators in all grades. And at every turn, we must reinforce that there is no room for discrimination of any kind in New York City’s public schools. To our AAPI students, staff, and families: The Department of Education stands in solidarity with you. We will continue to honor your diverse and powerful voices. For some amazing resources that are great for discussions at home with your children, visit schools.nyc.gov/togetherforjustice. In addition, your children can access a collection of hundreds of e-books and audiobooks honoring the contributions Asian Americans and Pacific Islander Americans have made to the lives and culture of the United States.

  • Asian-Americans: Culturally Diverse and Expanding Their Footprint
    ASIAN-AMERICANS: CULTURALLY DIVERSE AND EXPANDING THEIR FOOTPRINT THE ASIAN-AMERICAN CONSUMER 2016 REPORT DIVERSE INTELLIGENCE SERIES FOREWORD Asian-Americans’ influence on everything from food to technology continues to rise in the U.S. Asian-Americans: Culturally Diverse and Expanding Their Footprint, the latest report in Nielsen’s Diverse Intelligence Series, examines not only how the entrepreneurial spirit of Asian-Americans is contributing to the U.S. economy by boosting business start-ups, sales and employment, but also how their geographic footprint is moving beyond traditional strongholds in the Northeast and West as they make population gains across the Midwest and South. Asian-Americans are diverse, spanning the languages and cultural traditions of more than 40 different ethnicities. From an aggregated view, they lead the U.S. population (on a per household basis) for expenditures and usage, in a number of consumer categories, from food and travel to baby products, mobile digital devices, and social media. They are the most affluent (by median household income) of all major ethnic groups in the U.S., including non-Hispanic Whites, and are more highly educated than any other group. Their visibility in entertainment is increasing in Hollywood and beyond. However, we can not generalize this unique, diverse segment: a more disaggregated view is necessary to understand their consumption behaviors. Young, empowered, and growing, Asian-Americans’ economic clout will continue to expand. Understanding how to connect with this vibrant and multifaceted consumer group in today’s multicultural American mainstream will help shape the strategies necessary to succeed now and in the future. This report is a collaborative effort between Nielsen and its Asian Pacific American External Advisory Council, led by co-chairs Nita Song and Michael Sherman.

According to the National Resource Conservation Service, Asian American did not become a widely used term until the late 1960s and early ‘70s. The term refers largely to race because native Australians and New Zealanders are not considered Pacific Islanders, and white people born in the Asian region of the former Soviet Union
