The month of May is Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, during which the significant contributions of Asian Americans to American culture are highlighted. Fandom is participating this month under the theme Visibility and Amplification by shining a light on individuals, amplifying voices, and creating spaces for people to share their story.

What else?
Are you part of the AAPI community and would you like to participating in general, then please react on the blog with an answer to one of these two questions:
In the last few years, there has been an exponential rise of hate towards the AAPI community, which gave rise to the #StopAsianHate movement. How has this movement impacted you and what actions can we take as a society to fight anti-Asian discrimination and violence?
What does visibility mean to you?
We would love to quote you, so we may amplify your voice!
As always, it would be fantastic to have you join us! Should you have your own project within this community, let me know so I may promote it a little more!
