This collection of educational resources will help students make sense of anti-Asian racism today by connecting it with history. Americans of Asian descent have lived and contributed to the development of the United States. The first Asian American arrived in the United States in the 1500s - Filipinos who landed on the shores of Central California with a Spanish galleon. Prejudice and racism against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) stretches back to the beginning of this history. AAPIs have been seen as "others" who do not fully belong in the U.S. and perceived to be a threat to American livelihoods. In this way, Asian Americans have been and continue to be seen as "perpetual foreigners." This Collection includes a lesson plan, 5 Media Galleries, 4 Images, and 1 Video for Grades 6-8, 9-12.
