Our children need to learn about the history, plight, and contributions of Asian Americans as part of their public education. It has never been more important.

It’s no secret that Asian Americans are under attack in the United States. We’ve seen an explosion of hatred and even instances of physical violence befall the Asian American and Pacific Islander community.

Unfortunately, the history of Asian Americans, including their struggles and ongoing contributions to this great country has never been taught in our public schools. As a result, our children grow up learning a false narrative, and we’ve seen firsthand how this lack of information can be dangerous.

The time is now to educate our youth, and that starts with including Asian American history in the Florida public schools curriculum. This mission inspired Sifu Mimi Chan of the Wah Lum Kung Fu Temple in Orlando, Florida to reach out to elected officials to propose a bill that will be brought before the state legislature.  The proposed bill would finally rectify this issue and create a place for Asian American studies in the Florida school system.

But we can’t do it alone.

We need your support to help make this dream a reality, to create a foundation of knowledge that can hold back the stain of ignorance, racism, and hate.

Please consider joining our petition so that we can show our elected officials that Floridians care about this appalling lack of knowledge. With your support, we can arm our youth with education and empathy, and hopefully, stop Asian hate in its tracks.
