The inspiring youth song “We are proud to be Asian” turned the #StopAisanHate moment into a movement. It’s a movement by the youths and for the youths. It’s a movement of Asian Pride. It’s a movement calling for telling the AAPI story in school curriculum.
We can fight back by coming together. We need to build an infrastructure to support our kids’ American Identity. Our kids deserve the correct windows and mirrors so that they never have to feel anything less than Americans!

Dr. Hua Wang, CAAL President and Co-chair of NECAA, was interviewed by Boston Globe, WBZ 4, WCVB 5, WHDH 7, NBC10 Boston, WFXT 25, NECN, GBH News at the iconic Boston Common – the last stop of the #StopAsianHate Rally & Run. Please see below for some of the media quotes and links:

Hua Wang, chair of the New England Chinese American Alliance, told GBH News the event was organized as a metaphor for the prolonged effort needed to wipe out racism. “This is not going to be a once-and-done event, it’s a marathon,” he said, “so that’s why we choose the theme about covering all 8 cities and towns along the route. It’s a marathon – it’s very important for us to turn this moment into momentum.” – GBH News

This is actually a crisis moment for Asian Americans. But out of crisis comes opportunity,” said Hua Wang, co-chair of the New England Chinese American Alliance. “It’s also an opportunity for us to speak up and condemn xenophobia, hatred, bigotry and violence against Asian Americans.” “We will not be silent,” said Wang. “And we need to turn this moment into momentum.” – WBZ 4 TV

GBH News: ‘It’s A Marathon’: Local Asian Community Gathers To Mourn And Call For Action Against Racism

On Saturday, March27, CAAL joined forces with New England Chinese American Alliance (NECAA) to organize a #StopAsianHate Rally & Run through eight cities/towns along the world-famous Boston Marathon route. The event was co-sponsored by over 40 organizations in the greater Boston area including the revered Boston Athletic Association (BAA) – host of the Boston Marathon. 

With over 1,000 people joining the rallies along the Marathon route, the Rally & Run event has drawn extensive media coverage, including Boston Globe, WBZ 4, WCVB 5, WHDH 7, NBC10 Boston, WFXT 25, NECN, GBH News, WBZ 1030 News Radio, Milford Daily News, and Patch Brookline etc. 

The purpose of the event is to show solidarity in wake of deadly Atlanta and Colorado shootings, to mourn the loss of lives to the senseless killings, to condemn acts of violence and discrimination against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, and to display unity, resilience, and strength of the Asian American community.

大家行动起来参与这次波马沿线团结一致，抗击一切偏见、歧视和仇恨的活动，期待您和家人积极报名，加入沿街举牌，跑步和志愿者的行列，本周六3月27日上午9点45分Framingham 见。
