Why this petition matters

Started by Alodie Xia

The deadly shooting in Atlanta was a sad wake up call to many Americans.  No one can turn a blind eye to anti-Asian racism and violence in this country any longer. Here are simple actions we can take that will make a difference right now: 
1)     The State Legislature should list Asians in Equity bills that has suffered from systemic racism. 
2)    The Governor should fund and launch a statewide marketing campaign to educate the public on Asian Americans’ contributions to combat the ingrained notion that Asian Americans are ‘forever foreigners’.
3)   School districts can prioritize Asian American History study in curriculums. Asian Americans’ contributions and hardships should be taught in school. 
4)    We call on education institutions, government agencies, and employers to exam and recognize the implicit bias associated with the image of a “model minority” and terms such as “Asians are overrepresented”. 
5)    We call on prosecutors, state troopers, police and sheriffs to enforce the law on hate crimes against Asians. Justice should be brought to victims of anti-Asian hate crime.
