On this edition of Your Call, we’ll discuss how the mass shootings in Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay have led to even more anxiety and trauma within the AAPI community.

Between March 2020 and March 2022, there was a massive surge of anti-Asian hate, with over 11,400 reported incidents, according to Stop AAPI Hate.

We'll discuss policy solutions and mental health resources to address this collective trauma.
