Our Month
So May is our Month. Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. Like a lot of other things on the calendar, I’m not totally sold on the idea of having one month to celebrate our heritage. At least it’s not as bad or as commercialized as one day to say I love you, one day to recognize the work of mothers or one day to go out and spend a lot of money.
That being said, I do welcome the opportunity for us to collectively reflect on our heritage, to celebrate our accomplishments, and to get a chance to have a table at Barnes and Nobles that says “Asian American Literature” or maybe even a display in Tower Records that says “Music by Asian Americans.”
Here at BPR, we are going to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month by publishing a new post every day. Come discuss, reflect and share with us!!

Beau is awesome. The one thing about that video is that it was made for AZN which unfortunately no longer exists.
But BPR we do have… we ought to make our own video.
We should totally make our own video!
