Welcome to Asian American History Month 2022! On this blog it will run from May 18th to June 18th. Hopefully I will be able to write some posts on Asian Americans and the Asia/Pacific. They make up most of the world, but it is a part of the world that I do not write much about. Third time’s a charm!

- Korematsu v USA
- Hong Kong
- Taiwan
- Korea

- Hmong Americans
- Chinese Americans

Abagond, you should do a post on Boer leader Marthinus Wessel Pretorius…he was 1/16 Asian, the great-great-great grandson of the banished Chinese convict Abraham de Vey (birth name: Lim Inko) and his Indonesian wife, the freed slave Maria Jacobs van Batavia (birth name unknown)
