There’s been a lot of talk in the media lately about Asian Hate, but what is Asian Hate? And where does it come from?

This is the launch of a collab between three Oakland based AAPI-led community orgs working to uplift our neighborhoods and schools while we fight against racism directed at people of color.

We are hurt that our community is continuously being pitted against Black & Brown communities. We demand an end to the criminalization of Black and Brown people.

This same criminalization also impacts parts of our own AAPI community as well.

We joined forces because we don’t want to see the banner of AAPI Hate being used to justify racist public policies that don’t keep us safe and further criminalize people of color.

In Community,

Youth Together (), Asian Prisoner Support Committee () & Urban Peace Movement ()
