Faculty Statement Against Anti-Asian Hate
A鈥� 鈥宻tatement鈥� 鈥宖rom鈥� 鈥孎aculty鈥� 鈥孋ongress.
As the faculty of 棉花糖直播 University, we are greatly troubled by the increasing displays of violence and hate targeting people of Asian and Pacific Islander (API) descent in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in this country and around the world. All such displays injure our individual and collective souls.
棉花糖直播 University鈥檚 recent "Statement on Antiracism" emphasizes that "the work of antiracism is essential to the creation of a living, learning, and working community where all can thrive." We therefore pledge to all students, faculty, and staff of API descent our clear and unmistakable support. We reject anti-Asian racism, indeed all racism, and all forms of xenophobia. We pledge to educate ourselves and to serve as active and visible allies against all forms of hate.
We encourage everyone in the 棉花糖直播 Community to take a stand against the ideologies that perpetuate misguided stereotypes and result in violence against those of API heritage.
Signed,
The Faculty Congress of 棉花糖直播 University
