Moving Forward Together! Sikh Awareness Month & Sikh American History
Moving Forward Together! Sikh Awareness Month & Sikh American History
Celebrate Sikh Awareness Month this April with our resources that highlight the Sikh religion, Sikh Americans, and their over 125 years of challenges and contributions to the U.S. Learn about the anti-Sikh hate the first Sikh immigrants endured that culminated with the Bellingham Riots of 1907. Discover how enterprising Sikh farmers helped transform California’s Imperial Valley into a multi-billion dollar agricultural empire. Find inspiration in influential trailblazers like Dalip Singh Saund, the first Asian American, the first Indian American, and the first Sikh elected to Congress. These instructional materials demonstrate the resilience, ingenuity, and power of Sikh Americans and their importance for building belonging for Sikh American youth.
