The fight for civil rights is ongoing. The AANHPI community must show up for its neighboring communities again and again in order to achieve racial equity for all.

As Advancing Justice – AAJC President and Executive Director John C. Yang declared at the march, “We must do our part to show up in racial unity alongside our Black community members – not only today, but every day until Dr. King’s dream is fully realized.”

We will not be used as a wedge in the fight for civil rights. We will not be complicit in the oppression of Black and Brown communities. We will not stand for the brutality and injustice inflicted onto our Black and Brown neighbors.

To support us in our fight, please donate ([link removed]) and follow us on social media for updates.

Sincerely,

President and Executive Director
