——Asians do not to allow themselves to be pushed around
by “The Yan Limeng”
Recently, there have been frequent attacks against Asians, especially
vulnerable Asians in the United States. On March 17th, a video of 76-year-
old Asian woman Xie Xiaozhen being punched in the eye by a white man caused
a lot of media and public attention. In fact, in January this year, a 91-
year-old man in Oakland's Chinatown was pushed to the ground and accused of
contracting COVID-19; MSN News reported on March 15 that Nancy Tang, an 83-
year-old Asian woman, was spat on, punched and called a "Chinese virus" by a
white middle-aged man in Plains; and NBC News reported that some people in
the U.S. had launched an online challenge “slap Asians” to incite random
attacks by teenagers on Public Transportation in San Francisco. It is
specifically targeted at Asian seniors and women. On the 19th, a 58-year-old
Asian woman was harassed by several young people on a bus. With the spread
of the COVID-19, more and more such incidents follow. The nongovernmental
organization “Stop AAPI Hate” received 2,800 reports in 2020, of which
about 240 involved physical assault. Since last year, when AAPI Emergency
Response Network began tracking hate incidents directly linked to the COVID-
19 disease, more than 3,000 reports have been received. Asian-Americans
being spat, beaten, cut and even thrown chemicals.
