Celebrate Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month with us as we honor Daniel Inouye, nominated by listener Daniel Dae Kim from Hawaii.
Inouye, born in Honolulu in 1924, served in the U.S. Army's 442nd Regimental Combat Team during World War II, displaying exceptional bravery and earning numerous awards despite losing his arm in combat. He later became one of Hawaii's first representatives in Congress and a distinguished U.S. Senator.
Join us as we explore Inouye's remarkable journey, highlighted by his leadership and enduring impact on Asian American history.
Share your own AANHPI hero with us on social media, and stay tuned for more inspiring stories throughout this special month of celebration.
