If you can, please join @alexshibutani and me in supporting the effort @gemma_chan launched with @gofundmegb @gofundme and other partners at GoFundMe.com/ESEA. #StopESEAHate #StopAsianHate Repost @gemma_chan Whilst much of the focus regarding anti-Asian attacks has been on the US, we know the problem is global - including a disturbing rise in hate crimes against people of ESEA appearance in the UK. In London alone attacks have tripled over the past year. Like many others, I worry for family members every time they leave the house or use public transport. My mum has worked for the NHS for most of her life - she and my dad have been followed and subjected to a number of verbal assaults since the beginning of the pandemic. Whilst I’m relieved that these attacks didn’t become physical, unfortunately that is often not the case, such as the unprovoked attack on a 26 year old woman in Edinburgh last week which ended in her hospitalisation, the vicious beating of a university lecturer who was out jogging in Southampton and the physical assault of Singaporean student Jonathan Mok on Oxford Street, amongst many others. What’s even more concerning is that the recorded figures are likely an underestimation because many incidents go unreported, both to the police and in the media. There is an urgent need for increased awareness and support so I am proud to help launch this fund, which will provide grants to grassroots organisations supporting ESEA and broader communities. Please share and donate if you can at GoFundMe.com/ESEA (link in bio) Thank you to everyone who has supported this effort, particularly the teams at @gofundme @goldhouseco @capeusa 🙏🏼 #StopAsianHate #StopESEAhate #EveryoneVsRacism」5月10日 5時40分
