Asian American Pacific Islander Writers: Nonfiction and Poetry

Avid Bookshop is committed to deliberately creating a more equitable workplace and community, and to amplify the voices of BIPOC writers. We encourage you to read and support the work of these Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) writers. This list is by no means comprehensive, but only a sampling of the work of AAPI writers we are currently carrying.

Please support the work of community leaders like Asian Americans Advancing Justice AAJC, Asian Immigrant Women Advocates, and Red Canary Song to honor the lives of fellow Georgians Yong Ae Yue, Suncha Kim, Hyun Jung Grant, Soon Chung Park, Daoyou Feng, Delaina Ashley Yaun Gonzalez, Paul Andre Michaels, and Xiaojie Tan.
