I. AM. NOT. SENSITIVE.

I am not offended by “China Virus”. I am furious by the ignorance. I am scared of the violence that’s been unleashed on Asian American’s ever since Covid started. I am worried and concerned for my Asian American friends across the nation. I am tired of explaining to people WHY this is a problem.

You claim I’m “overreacting”????? Tell that to my friends who get harassed on the subway. Tell that to my friends who get harassed when hey go out anywhere. Tell that to the glances and the threats we get. Tell that to the way it feels to have “CORONAVIRUS” screamed at you. Tell that to my friends friend who had a BRICK WITH A FORTUNE COOKIE TAPED TO IT THROWN THROUGH HER WINDSHIELD. Tell that to all the Asian American’s who have been beaten, bruised and bloody.

If the racism towards Asian Americans didn’t spike the second Covid happened then it wouldn’t be as bad. But the fact that the President is oblivious to the damage his words have on us is an extremely huge problem.

The fact that he said “China” in a mocking tone when asked why he calls it that shows he doesn’t care. The fact that he CROSSED OUT COVID ON A DOC TO WRITE “CHINA” above it is a problem.

My friend told me that in epl (England pro soccer league) theres this player who's Korean, his name is Son Heung Min and people from opposing teams have said something racist, or made stupid asian eyes at him and they are LITERALLY BANNED FROM THE STADIUM FOREVER AND ARE IN JAIL!

If a soccer league gets it and you can’t then I am done trying to explain (Matthew 7:6 and all that)

The people who are truly friends of mine understand before I even bring it up.

I have no desire to keep people in my life that fight me on this and I have no desire to compromise on this issue.

I am angry crying as I write this and I deserve better friends and people behind me.

Asian American’s all over the world deserve better.

You won’t be saying I’m overreacting when it’s my bloody photo circulating the internet. But I hope it doesn’t come to that for my sake.
