Hello AACP Newsletter Blog Readers.

Wow, we just finished seven events in a six week period. One of these events was a two day conference. We actually had an eighth event on our calendar that was canceled due to rain. Even though it was canceled, we still worked on being at this event until we were notified of the event’s cancellation.

If you recently tried to subscribe to our emailed newsletter, please try again. It’s now working. We didn’t realize that the subscription form was not functioning until someone at the California Council for the Social Studies Conference informed us of this. We apologize for this inconvenience.

------------------

In my last blog post, I didn’t get to tell you about our latest newsletter (the AACP February 2025 Newsletter). I already highlighted most of the things in this newsletter in my editor’s message for it (so have a look).

One of the things I didn’t mentioned about AACP’s anniversary date is that the organization really got started in 1969 when our founders met and began planning the future of their collaboration. Its official incorporation was not done until February of 1970 and we did not get our approved nonprofit status until December of that same year. So we really have multiple anniversary dates in which to we could celebrate our founding.

Regarding our second article, which contains some videos and photos from our poetry event (AAPI poetry for Peace, Love, and Understanding), it’s still not done. I have one more video to post and some photos too. I’ll try to let you know when it’s completely done in this blog.

That’s all for now.

Have a wonderful March.

Hello AACP Newsletter Blog Readers.

We’re pretty busy this weekend. We are at the California Council for the Social Studies Conference and I am going to the Stockton Lunar New Year’s Celebration tomorrow.

I’ll be very brief and hope to update this on Sunday when these events are all over.

Our newsletter subscriber form was not working. It’s working now. So if you wish to subscribe please do so. New subscribers between now and the end of March and that have never used Bookshop.org will get a 20% off coupon to use that service.

So please subscribe and tell your friends to do so too.

Take care.
