Stop Asian Hate
It started with dirty looks, name calling, and telling us to go back to China. Then it became pushing, yelling, and spitting. Now it's stabbing, lighting on fire, and knocking heads to the ground. They typically attack in groups of 2 or 3, and ambush defenceless, unsuspecting Asian seniors and teens. The attacks are usually from behind or by surprise – like a prison shanking.
It's disgusting and cowardly that they're targeting the weak and defenceless, and it's tough to watch from afar. I'm angry, I'm frustrated, I'm confused... and I'm not sure how I can help. But I'm a creative, so I created a collection of posters to spread awareness, start conversations, and express what many of us are feeling inside.
Our ethnicity is not a virus. #StopAsianHate

Audra Brown and I sat down to chat about the rise of Asian hate crimes, and the campaign I created to help spread awareness and give Asians a voice.
