American
Heritage Week:
May 7-14, 1980
i—. A Proclamation ,
America's strength is in the heart of it* people ana the richness of its cultural di-
versity.
Those who have come from Asian and Pacific countries have loot a
special quality to our American mosaic. In spite of adversity, in spite of violence
inflicted on their people and cultures. Asian and Pacific Americans have shed
sweat and blood in the struggle for America's nationhood and in the quest for
freedom and opportunity. Out of all proportion to their number*. Asian and 4
Pacific Americans have contributed to our nation's progress in a wide range of
fields— science, the arts, literature, agriculture, industry and commerce. Bring-
ing with them the strong and varied traditions of their Asian and Pacific home-
lands—China. Japan, Korea, the Philippines, the Pacific Islands and Southeast
Asia—they have greatly enriched our cultural heritage and institutions.
As we welcome new groups of Asian and Pacific peoples to our shores, our
hearts are saddened by the suffering that has caused many of them to leave their
homelands, but we are proud to be able to offer them freedom and hope and op-
portunity in America.
As we work together to help them make the difficult adjustments to a new i»mt
and new lives, we are deeply aware of our debt to the generations of Asian and
Pacific Americans who have come before them. We are grateful for their
presence and glad for the opportunity to continue as a land of immi(r.m« people ’
who have come from every corner of the earth, united by a common
to human rights and human liberty.
