Yelp proactively removed more than 2,000 posts containing racist hate speech in 2022 — a nearly 10-fold increase over the year before. The largest increase was seen in reviews denigrating Asian Americans and Asian American-owned businesses. https://t.co/jsWT5njSuX

@ANCALERTS Good to see Asians making a mark in the U.S.

This is NOT acceptable. Spotted on the New Tin’s Market in Oakland’s Chinatown.

@AP Not once did I even think they were missing an Asian muppet. I’m happy they do now.

[The Associated Press @AP]

"Sesame Street" is welcoming its first ever Asian American muppet. Ji-Young is 7, Korean American and loves to rock out on her guitar. The hope is that she will be a positive force against a rise in anti-Asian hate. https://t.co/k6Qwu2F9Nt
