Asian American History Inclusion Benefit Concert 

“Asian Hate” has been a problem that existed for a long time in the United States. The pandemic saw a rise in violence against Asians as people blame them for causing this widespread disease. The shooting in Atlanta on March 16 resulted in the death of six Asian women and shocked the entire Asian American community. The tragedy has led many to contemplate and examine the injustice against Asians over the years. Why are Asians excluded from American society when they have contributed to building this country? Why are Asian American veterans, who are just as courageous and selfless as any other veteran, not receiving well-deserved recognition? Why are the contributions of Asian Americans reduced to mere paragraphs in our history textbooks as though they were not part of the hundreds of thousands who made America what it is today?
