A Moment of Silence

Curated by Trao Thao

A major part of our work at YDN is working towards social justice. Each and every person deserves to feel safe, culturally, emotionally, and physically. Violence motivated by racism, misogyny, and hatred takes safety away from so many people.

We cannot continue our work until we acknowledge the recent events that took place in Atlanta Georgia, and across the nation. In the last year we have seen an increase of violence against Asian and Asian-American and Pacific Islander communities.

Please offer your prayers and strength for the hope of bringing healing to our communities, our cities, our state and our nation.
