The Movement Against Anti-Asian Racism
FUEL Milwaukee is hosting The Movement Against Anti-Asian Racism:
“With racial equity taking center stage around the world, the Asian American community is battling a surge in hate crimes stirred from COVID-19. A recent report found that hate crimes against Asian Americans increased by nearly 150% in 2020.
Join FUEL for a discussion about the fight against xenophobia and Anti-Asian discrimination. During the discussion we will explore:
- America’s history of Anti-Asian racism and recent injustices marring the community
- First-hand accounts from Milwaukeean’s who’ve experienced the pain of Anti-Asian hate crimes and bias
- Resources for individuals, communities, and workplaces affected by acts of violence and prejudice against Asians and Asian Americans
- Ways to support the movement that’s putting an end to Anti-Asian sentiment
This discussion has been designed to raise awareness and sensitivity about racial injustice. This is a safe space for everyone to learn, ask questions, grow, and become a better ally. Please register and share with your networks.”
