Community leaders and lawmakers revealed a campaign Friday to educate the public about anti-Asian hate and provide resources for victims.
"How did we get here." That is the question Megan Sapigao with the Asian American Liberation Network presents. Her organization is part of efforts to address anti-Asian hate through a public awareness campaign organized by the Laban Group, a Filipino ethnic media collaborative. Laban in Filipino means to stand up, fight, or combat.
Two years ago, an incident at a south Sacramento butcher shop was investigated as a hate crime after surveillance video showed a man dumping a dead animal in the store's parking lot. A partner in that store is Chinese American. Attorney General Rob Bonta, who is Filipino American, says the state has stepped in to help."It's not going to happen on its own. It requires agency and action and leaning in and people power and communities rising up, and that's what we're doing today."
