Stop Asian hate!
Standing up today and every day with my AAPI brothers and sisters. We are ALL witnessing the rise in hatred and violence towards Asian Americans so I believe we can ALL come together and stop it.
Personally, I am moving beyond just being “horrified and saddened” because I’m too angry and motivated to do something about it. I will continue to share personal stories and humanize this issue, I will continue to speak up, step up and put my money where my mouth is. There is no room for hatred or violence towards any members of our community, especially if we want our children to grow up in a world where ALL people are treated with equality and respect.
Why am I sharing this on my platform? Because silence is violence and I will always speak up for targeted or marginalized communities that need more allies. But for everyone reading this, you don’t need a large platform to care or speak up. Just check in on your Asian friends and family members. Even if they are not saying anything publicly, they are scared, angry and grieving. Just letting someone know that you care can make all the difference in the world.
