Join us on March 27th for a national day of action demanding an end to anti-Asian racist violence, an end to violence against women, and an end to white supremacy now!
The ANSWER Coalition stands in solidarity with the Asian community in the midst of the horrific, racist, and misogynist massacre that took place in Atlanta on March 16th. Six Asian women were among the eight shot dead at point blank range.
The alarming rise in hate crimes over the past year correlates to an increasingly hostile U.S. foreign policy towards China.
The opportunistic scapegoating of China during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with the intensity by which China is deemed the enemy and adversary of the United States, has driven a widespread anti-China sentiment nationally. The Asian American community and women in particular suffer the brunt of the hatred fomented as a weapon of war. To date, there have been over 3,800 self-reported hate crimes against Asian Americans!
The mainstream media’s failure to label the Atlanta shooting as a hate crime demonstrates the gross disregard and injustice that our communities are facing. Racism is a sick symptom of a capitalist system that profits from war and violence. We will unite and fight back!
