NYC is using $2.5 million from the city budget to advance AAPI studies in schools
New York City public school students could soon learn more about Asian American and Pacific Islander communities as a part of their curriculum.
That’s because the city council included $2.5 million dollars in this year’s budget to advance AAPI studies in city schools.
CUNY’s Localized History Project and the Asian American Education Project will work on exactly what that curriculum will look like.
Shreya Sunderram is the director of CUNY’s Localized History Project and Clarissa Kunizaki is a rising senior at Brooklyn Technical High School and a founding member of the localized history project. Stewart Kwoh is the co-executive director of the Asian American Education Project. They sat down with WNYC's Sean Carlson to talk more about what AAPI studies could look like in New York City public schools.
