Celebrate Immigrant Heritage Month with a Book #IHM2020 #ImmigrantHeritageMonth #HomeIsHere #CelebrateImmigrants
How do you learn about someone’s experience? You listen to what they have to say. Or in this case, you read their memoir. This list of memoirs, essays, histories, anthologies, novels and more from the New York Public Library is a great place to start:
These titles represent each authors’ unique immigrant experience, through various mediums, genres, backgrounds and neighborhoods. Each setting offers a character’s distinct perspective of someone who grapples with two lives: life back home and life in New York. But these stories capture a feeling you might find familiar: a love of New York, a celebration of where we come from and where we are now, and the magnificence of making a life that is your own. These titles brilliantly display that we all have our own New York City, one that is shaped from our experiences and histories, that is unique to us yet not unfamiliar to other New Yorkers who are also proud to call themselves immigrants.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
