May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI, formerly AAPI) Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the important role these communities have played in our country’s shared history. WXXI honors AANHPI Month with special programs, storytelling, events, and more and we invite you to watch, listen or join in on things we have planned throughout the month. Below are a few spotlights, but you can click the button below for a full curated list.
