We stand in solidarity with Asian and Asian American communities.

Over the last year, there has been a rise in violence and hate crimes towards our Asian and Asian American colleagues, friends, community members, and relatives – including the most recent tragedy in Atlanta. Terrorists everywhere must be held accountable for their actions.

We also recognize that anti-Asian racism and xenophobia did not begin a year ago with the pandemic. They are a painful reality that Asian and Asian American community members have experienced daily, past and present.

The Museum of Us stands against any form of racism and racial violence, including hate crimes against Asian and Asian American Communities.

We condemn these atrocities and will continue to work toward positive social change for present and future generations.
