My Filipino American History Month display at my library. It’s my honor each year to showcase & uplift Filipino stories. Just 5 years ago, I didn’t have enough books to even put up a display, but now my display overflows. I marvel at how far we’ve come. And yet there’s always room for more. #booksky
