Act To Change is rallying the nation -- cities, elected officials, influencers, and community groups -- to commemorate the third annual national Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Day Against Bullying + Hate on May 18, 2021. May 18 is the birthday of Vincent Chin, an Asian American who was murdered in a hate crime nearly four decades ago. This year would have been his 66th birthday.
With bullying, discrimination, and hate crimes against Asian Americans on the rise during Covid-19, it’s more important now than ever that we stand up against xenophobia and racism. Act To Change’s day-of virtual program, UNITED WE STAND, will commemorate this day with special guests and performances.
