Celebrating AANHP Heritage Month

In celebration of American Asian Native Hawaiian Pasifika (AANHP) Heritage month, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge and honor the history, culture and contributions of our AANHP community.

Recognizing heritage months provides an opportunity for us to celebrate the diverse communities that make up our region and to better understand how systemic racism has impacted these communities, both past and present, and the work we can do together to help dismantle it.

Today, the AANHP communities still face overt racism and discrimination.

Metro stands with our AANHP community against hate and discrimination and commits to fighting structural and institutional racism.

I encourage you to spend time exploring the numerous AANHP community hubs, businesses and restaurants throughout our County and region. Providing access to them is one way Metro honors and celebrates these communities in our everyday work.

Read the full message from Metro's General Manager Michelle Allison on our?Metro Matters blog [ [link removed] ].?
