Honoring Asian American And Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Kansas City PBS celebrates Asian American culture throughout the year with programming and reporting. The month of May, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, provides an even broader platform to bring audiences additional stories celebrating the achievements, culture and strength of the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.

Additional programming is available online or within Kansas City PBS Passport, an on-demand streaming service available to members that provides access to exclusive programming online and in the PBS Video app.
