Asian-American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month is under way, and ABC News is getting in on the action with a monthlong series of coverage.

The network says it will "share stories that celebrate the history, unique heritage and culture, and contributions of the AANHPI community to the fabric of America."

Among the highlights: Good Morning America will feature an interview with astronaut Amanda Nguyen, the first Vietnamese and Southeast Asian woman to go to space.

Nightline will air a sit-down with Nguyen, the activist behind the Stop Asian Hate movement, to discuss how she overcame adversity to pursue her dream of space travel.

ABC News Live will feature an interview with Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan, the first person of South Asian descent and the youngest person ever to lead the organization tasked with enforcing the nation's antitrust and consumer protection laws.

ABC News Digital and Good Morning America Digital will spotlight stars of business, arts, and pop culture, including chef Esther Choi, social entrepreneur Nadya Okamoto, eco-friendly Blueland CEO Sarah Paiji Yoo, and the self-proclaimed first Asian woman of hip-hop, Sophia Chang.
