More than 100 Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community members, leaders, and allies gathered in Long Beach on September 11 at a “Reclaim Our Streets” Rally.
“We are here today to reclaim public spaces and to defend our right to live and thrive in our communities,” said Manjusha Kulkarni, Executive Director of AAPI Equity Alliance.
Asian American and other immigrant organizations warned of grave consequences after Monday’s Supreme Court ruling essentially greenlighting racial profiling.
At a California restaurant, a man of Taiwanese descent was told he was getting deported and that he should enjoy his last meal, the man later recalled.
Nearly half of all Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) adults in California—48%—experienced hate in 2024, according to a new report from Stop AAPI Hate.
