Racism is an epidemic we need to end. We stand in solidarity with our AAPI friends, family, and colleagues. Join us in supporting and amplifying organizations and resources so we can protect Asian lives and advance racial equality.  We’ve compiled a list of resources in the Bay Area and Seattle and will continue to update regularly.
