    On a day when the AAPI community should be gathering to celebrate Lunar New Year, we once again find ourselves grieving. On Saturday night in Monterey Park, California, a gunman opened fire at a dance studio following a Lunar New Year celebration. (1/4)

    In the year 2021, the Asian American community persisted and thrived in the face of unprecedented violence and pain. We united like never before. Thank you to the everyday heroes who served our country when we needed it the most. Here is TAAFโ€™s tribute to 2021.

    Anti-Asian hate has not stopped. It has not slowed down. From the bus attack in Indiana to the below assault on an Asian elder, our community remains the target of attacks. We must remain vigilant. We must continue to work together to create long term change to end this violence.

    Monterey Park is a city made up of 65% Asian Americans. We are heartbroken for the victims, we mourn with their families, and we are angry. Violence against the AAPI community has not gone away. (2/4)
