The rise in hate crimes against Asian Americans during the pandemic has been deeply troubling. These incidents often target the most vulnerable members of our community, leaving us feeling frightened and defenseless. But we refuse to be silenced or intimidated. Instead, we are standing up, creating safe spaces, and sharing our stories through art, music, film, and writing.
We understand that in these difficult times, it can be challenging to know where to turn for help. That's why we've compiled a list of resources that we hope will be useful to you. We are constantly updating this list and welcome any suggestions you may have.
Our hope is that these resources will provide you with some peace of mind, help you gain new knowledge, and offer a safe space for learning, healing, and growth. We encourage you to share this page with your family and friends and to stay aware of your surroundings. We know that change can be slow, but we remain steadfast in our belief that only through community support and persistent kindness can we create a better world for ourselves and future generations.
