Since the pandemic started, there have been more than 3,000 incidents of hate reported by the community organization Stop AAPI Hate, a coalition of non-profits advocating for the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) population.
There is both fear and concern among the Asian American community about how best to address these unprovoked attacks. Members of the Latino Leadership Circle and guest panelists Jennifer Chan and Reyn Cabnite will talk about why Latin@s should care and what we can do to help fight the hate against our Asian American brothers and sisters.
