A statement on the Atlanta Attacks

Our hearts go out to the victims of the Atlanta attacks, their families and friends, and the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities more broadly. We denounce senseless, racist violence—specifically, the recent surge of hate crimes against the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities over the past year.

To our Asian American and Pacific Islander communities, your words matter. We are listening.

We ask all members to engage in courageous conversations to confront and resist hate, violence, and discrimination. To get started, visit our Critical Classroom Conversation resources.
