Cherry Blossom Banners by Melissa Rothman (2022)
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AAPI) and to celebrate and honor these members of our community, we've chosen some works by and about important AAPI figures. Click the book/video covers for a direct link to the catalog listing.
Enjoy!
This virtual book display is intended to showcase a range of diverse voices and experiences within the AAPI community. It is important to recognize that this display may not encompass the entirety of AAPI literature, and there are numerous other valuable works that may not be included. The intention is to celebrate the richness and complexity of AAPI narratives while promoting cultural understanding and appreciation. Furthermore, we welcome all feedback for improving the guide, particularly from AAPI UofL community members. Please send your suggestions to melissa.rothman@louisville.edu.
