In 1992, Congress passed Public Law 102-45 designating May as Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month. Since the designation, there have been many Asian/Pacific American firsts in the arts, literature, politics, sports, and beyond. Celebrate the 35th anniversary by reading recently published books by or about Asian/Pacific American people and culture.
