Co-executive and associate editors of “Endless Tide” will discuss the failings of the current legal framework and raise a call to action by elected officials, law enforcement, and community organizations to keep the AAPI community safe in America.
The impact of the pandemic on the Asian-American community in New York City is particularly profound. Beyond the pandemic’s effect on public health, economic growth, education, medical services, food supply, and international relations, the Asian-American community has been blamed for the pandemic and the target of hate and violence. Co-executive editors Chris Kwok and Karen King will present the Asian American Bar Association of New York’s recently released report that discusses the data showing that anti-Asian hate and violence have skyrocketed in 2020, focusing on the New York City region.
