我們亞裔的怒吼

大休斯敦地區“停止仇視亞裔群眾大會”週末在市中心綠地廣場舉行，我們大家帶著一股悲愤之激情參加了這塲感人的集會。

這是新冠疫情以來，過去一年已經有超過四千件對亞裔攻擊及仇视之事件，包括三月十六日在亞特蘭大一名白人兇手以亂槍掃射打死了八名市民其中六位是韓裔，這名二十一殘忍兇手以自己是色情魔之藉口才下此毒手，但是 我們決不相信這是唯一之理由，它一定有對亞裔歧視之潛在原因。

週末之大型集會上，我們聽到了韓裔社區人士之感傷訴求，我們也見到了在台上一字排開的民意代表和黑人民權領袖之慷慨激昂，但是，這些都無法表達我們心中之怒吼和解決問題之方法。

近年來，在我們社會中每日都在發生之種族仇恨和偏見，已經是我們國家未來最嚴重的挑戰之一。

拜登總統也親臨亞特蘭大亞裔社區會晤亞裔領袖，聯邦及地方政府也不斷呼籲大家要遵從規定，不能對亞裔做出任何歧視之舉動，但是，今天的問題可以说是治標而非治本之道。

我們所面對的是許多政治領袖他們正在不斷操作白人至上主義之偏頗主張，變成他們的政治資本，加上貧富加劇導致社會底層之激烈反弹。

一年來的疫情打亂了國家之正常運作，人民痛苦指數攀升，如果來拯救美國，全靠我們大家的智慧和努力了。

Stop Asian Hate Vigil & Rally

Just last Saturday the Asian groups in the Houston area hosted a rally at Houston’s Downtown Discovery Green on the Grace Events Lawn. My news team and I attended this sad event with many Asians in the Houston area in attendance.

We heard a lot of community leaders and politicians making speeches and expressing their outrage about the murders in Atlanta, Georgia, where six of the eight victims were Asian Americans. Even though President Biden and Vice President Harris went there to try and comfort our community, the fundamental problem is still there.

When we look back, the political situation in our country and our race issues are related to our leaders and economic conditions. Because of the pandemic, many working class people lost their jobs which created a special poor class in the country. The political elite and a few of the wealthy class were in control of our society. Now more and more poor people are suffering at the bottom of our society.

Today our community as a minority is facing the whole economic downturn directly. Many radical groups use us as a scapegoat. They are blaming Asians as the ones who are stealing their jobs and brought the virus to America.

This is a very sad time. We all need to be united. We also need to depend on the wisdom of our leader to lead us to the brighter tomorrow.
