Thank you Chief McLean, Captain Barry and Chief Equity Officer Martha Duffield! It is great effort to engagement the Asian community! The attendees from CAAL are Hua Wang, Melanie Lin, Wendy Qin and Yifang Gong.

On International Women’s Day (March 8), the Chinese American Association of Lexington (CAAL) announced a partnership with Lex See Her to help expand inclusive educational programming related to the monument.

Melanie Lin, Co-President of CAAL, noted that “Asian women have made significant contributions in modern U.S. history. In this moment of surging anti-Asian hate that especially targets Asian women, what can we and should we do? We look forward to seeing this exciting monument in town, as teaching history is the best way to build better future.”

Here is the report from Lexington Minuteman

早春二月, 虽春寒料峭，然萧瑟中暗藏生机; 且看涓涓细流，河开雁来，春芽萌动, 春天正以万物为张描绘新的时光，问候这个风云世界。人心向暖，岁月不寒。愿冬疫消散，世界一家，四方安平！心到，春来！
