“I want to stop paying for this debt for being an immigrant. I want to stop feeling like anything less than death is a blessing…if we don’t report [hate incidents] we don’t exist.” @catt_phan#SAHroundtable
“I was told at least you didn’t die. Is this the benchmark? Do we have to die to take up space?” –@Catt_Phan speaks out on her experience being attacked at a concert and security not taking action & taking action herself by going to the media #SAHroundtable

In the wake of unsealed documents from the Depp v. Heard defamation trial, folks have been posting their regrets about believing Johnny Depp and mocking Amber Heard. If you too are waking up, here are some questions I suggest that you explore in good faith. 🧵
Atlantik-Brücke’s New Bridge Fellows have officially kicked off their tour of Europe. First stop: Brussels! Meeting with leaders from @GLOBSEC, Belgium’s Cabinet of Asylum and Migration, and @NATO, the group has explored how relations and political processes work.
A new cohort of @atlantikbruecke New Bridge Fellows has arrived in DC, gearing up for their trip to Brussels, Berlin and Hamburg. After a welcome reception last night, they are making first transatlantic connections today. Safe travels! @jherzstiftung @BMWK
Why does diversity in transatlantic relations matter? Deputy Chief of Mission, Axel Dittmann, welcomed @atlantikbruecke NEW BRIDGE fellows at his residence to discuss this before they embarked on a trip to Brussels, Berlin and Hamburg.

We should all feel safe when going grocery shopping, riding public transit and walking down the street. But – two years into the pandemic – we still don’t have protections in public spaces. 🧵⬇️
“Everyone deserves to feel safe, loved, and powerful. Our culture needs to change and that starts by speaking up against microaggressions and casual racism in our daily lives.”
We are so much more powerful together ❤️ Thank you @michdepacina for keeping my voice in its entirety
The last two years have shown that AAPI hate is on the rise. Our team conducted a national report to learn more about what reality looks like for many #AAPIs across the country. Here is what we learned [thread🧵⬇️]
@LiveNation_LA will you do better so no one else will experience a hate incident? Your staff did nothing, couldn’t even communicate to their own team, and made me walk behind the racists instead. I watched them leave and laugh. My policy recs and thoughts: https://t.co/ASMFugLPOe
If a tree falls & no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? If you don't record your trauma & become viral on the internet, did anything happen?
You heard me ❤️

Thank you for listening. I am in tears! Because of your support I was interviewed by @cbsla’s @RinaNakanoTV and will be able to share my story on a bigger platform!
My segment will air closer to 4:30pm on KCAL9 and 5pm on CBS2. If you see me, lmk!
You and I did this TOGETHER ✊🏽
Microaggressions & verbal abuse are NEVER justified. We ALL can nip them in the bud before they grow into something more rotten. TY @RinaNakanoTV for uplifting my story! I hope @halsey (still fave artist) @LiveNation@FivePointAmp see this & speak out #StopAsianHate#StopAAPIHate
