How did you come to call the U.S. your home?

This AAPI Heritage Month, Stop AAPI Hate is inviting all Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to discover the answer to this question and make sure our experiences are seen, heard, and remembered. 

To participate, you can post your story directly on own your social media account or spend a few minutes filling out the form below for the chance to see yourself featured on the Stop AAPI Hate website or social media accounts as a part of the #MyImmigrantRoots project. Your story will help others feel connected to their immigrant heritage and inspire them to share it with the world.

Whatever you choose to submit may be shared on the Stop AAPI Hate website or social media accounts as a part of #MyImmigrantRoots.

For those whose immigrant stories are under threat or still unfolding due to the current political moment, we realize there are risks to sharing your experience online. Go to stopaapihate.org/MyImmigrantRoots to learn how you can participate while ensuring your safety.

By submitting this form, you are acknowledging that your story may be shared as part #MyImmigrantRoots on the Stop AAPI Hate website and possibly on our social media channels. Please only submit what you are comfortable sharing publicly.

If you have follow-up questions, you can use this form to reach us with your questions or comments.
