Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and
Pacific Islander history is American history. The unique experiences,
challenges, and contributions of AANHPIs are an integral part of our country's
development, but they are rarely taught in American schools.

For many Americans of Asian American,
Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander descent who grew up in the United States,
there continues to be a startling lack of opportunity to learn about our own
history in our country. Even today, over 70% of Americans have little knowledge
about AANHPI history or confuse it with Asian history. Fighting to Belong!
Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders, 1900-1970,
written by best-selling writer Amy Chu (Wonder Woman, Deadpool, Ant-Man,
Iron Man) and Alexander Chang and illustrated by Louie Chin (Bodega Cat),
shares this important and dynamic part of the American experience in an
accessible and engaging graphic novel format.
