[BFASA] BFASA Statement of Support of the Asian American Pacific Islander Community

[Chanel Parrish]

Hi BFASA Family,

I know many of us have heavy hearts with the tragic and recent example of the anti-Asian hate and discrimination happening in our country. On Tuesday evening, March 16th, 8 people were killed, including 6 Asian women, in their place of work in Atlanta. BFASA stands against all violence and racism against all communities of color including Asian American Pacific Islander, Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities.

Attached you will find BFASA's statement of support and solidarity of the AAPI Community. Feel free to send out to others or share.

Please take time to reach out to your AAPI friends/family to check in and also take the time to educate yourselves on the history of anti-Asian hate and discrimination in our country.
