Asian Americans are posting videos of themselves washing their hands while sharing personal stories of racism following the coronavirus pandemic
“In my 40 years here in the US, I haven't seen this level of blatant attacks,” says Kristen and urges followers to take action. “Let’s just say ‘no’ to that, let’s refuse to go there. Please let’s wash away the hate and bring in the love!”
President Trump called coronavirus the “Chinese virus” for a week, prompting more harassment of Asian Americans, then last Monday he voiced support for the Asian American community in a press conference saying that he doesn't like the "nasty language" used against Asian-Americans around coronavirus.
“It is very important that we totally protect our Asian American community in the United States, and all around the world. They are amazing people, and the spreading of the Virus… .is NOT their fault in any way, shape, or form. They are working closely with us to get rid of it. WE WILL PREVAIL TOGETHER!” Trump also wrote on Twitter.
It is very important that we totally protect our Asian American community in the United States, and all around the world. They are amazing people, and the spreading of the Virus....Away from the American shores, the French newspaper Le Courrier Picard sparked outrage with this headline on its front page which read ‘Yellow Alert’ and showed a Chinese woman wearing a mask.
People took to Twitter with the hashtag #JeNeSuisPasUnVirus to condemn the reference to ‘yellow peril’, a racist fear that East Asian people pose a threat to society. Je sais que tout le monde a peur au virus, mais pas de préjugé, svp.
