I have always been concerned about racism and violence against Asians in the US since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Asian community has experienced everything from physical attacks, verbal harassment, and violence leading to death, as seen in the fatal shootings at Atlanta-based massage parlors in March 2021,  many Robberies at Oakland Chinatown and so on. I was furious about the terrifying incidents so I photographed two hate rallies at San Francisco and Mountain View. Then, I start to photograph event related to this topic. My intention is to build a cultural understanding that Among Asian communities tend to remain silent when it comes to the conflict because they don’t want trouble as long as the fire was not in their backyard. I want to improve the awareness of how you fight for you own rights.

自 COVID-19 大流行开始以来，我一直担心美国针对亚洲人的种族主义和暴力行为。 从 2021 年 3 月亚特兰大按摩院的致命枪击案、奥克兰唐人街的多起抢劫案等中可以看出，亚裔社区经历了从身体攻击、言语骚扰到导致死亡的暴力等各种事件。 我对这些可怕的事件感到愤怒，所以我在旧金山和山景城拍摄了两场仇恨集会。 然后，我开始拍摄与这个主题相关的事件。 我的目的是建立一种文化理解，即亚洲社区在冲突中往往保持沉默，因为只要火不在他们的后院，他们就不想惹麻烦。 我想提高人们对如何为自己的权利而战的认识。
