Building a stronger AAPI community through awareness campaigns, fundraising, and seed grants to promising leaders and upstart organizations

Asian Americans demand BART must double down on safety and enforcement of basic laws

If transit is truly for the people, the people must be protected. We don’t want to be victims. Arrest and convict the attackers and the repeat offenders.

It’s been over 6 months since the SFPD and Police Chief Scott reopened the Yanfang Wu case. Where’s the video?

Please watch the video if you’re interested in the details of this case and the timeline of events.

@SFPDChief Last July within days of the death of Ms. Wu @SFPD apparently leaked to the press that the death was an "accident." Months later the video still hasn't been released. We're asked to wait. The need to restore public confidence outweighs any reason to delay.

Release the video!

[Asian Justice Movement @AsianJusticeMvt]

The Asian Justice Movement (AJM) demands the immediate release of the video showing the fatal attack of Ms. Yanfang Wu (age 63). @SFPD dismissed the death as an "accident" last July. The same suspect just attacked a 71 year-old Asian woman.

We DEMAND justice! #JusticeForAsians

Wonderful morning at Chinese Historical Society (@CHSAmuseum) celebrating the passage of AB449. With rising hate crimes targeting our AAPI community, mandating better reporting will protect AAPI elders, our AAPI neighbors, and all victims of hate crimes. @standwithasians, I stand with you.

The @standwithasians and @asianjusticemovement #AlwaysWithUs event in Times Square yesterday, 3/16/2023, was a reminder that we are still living with a pandemic called HATE. I was enamored by the solidarity and the strive to eradicate hatred towards Asia… https://t.co/86s4FTvjEf

Moving speeches from friends Sasanna Yee & Mimi Lok together w/ somber music, bold performances, brilliant student arts over food & boba took us through the journey to #StopAsianHate violence in the past few years. Strength to stand up, vulnerability to open up! @standwithasians

Thanks for witnessing history when #MichelleYeoh won the Oscar for Best Actress for #EEAAO. She shattered a bamboo ceiling and inspired a generation. Celebrating this victory will be a lasting reminder of when our #AAPIcommunity comes together - anything is possible. #Oscars2023

[Sikh Coalition @sikh_coalition]

The Sikh Coalition's Nikki Singh joined @StandwithAAs in New York City to honor the lives of Asian women lost during the Atlanta spa shootings. We stand in solidarity and honor their memory by continuing to work towards solutions to better protect and care for AAPI communities

[standwithasians @standwithasians]

Thanks #MichelleYeoh for kicking off our Silicon Valley Asian Hollywood Oscar Watch party. The historic win shattered another bamboo ceiling, bringing renewed energy to the movement. You deserve every bit of this worldwide recognition as a global icon. This is just the beginning!
