Hi friends, exciting news, I'm working on a new podcast about Asian American identity for @CapRadioNews! And we're looking to hear, if you're Asian American, how do you identify yourself, your heritage/background, and why? Email me a voice memo, [email protected]!

Don’t make the terrible mistake of blaming ethnic Russians in America for the atrocities of the Russian nation. I’ve personally witnessed where that can lead, and I’ve sworn to help ensure it never happens again.

So glad to see that Zurg can go home to rest. And that @AGRobBonta has responded to Siskiyou’s Hmong community. Sincere appreciation to community members raising their voices against injustice. We stand with you!
Sending love and healing to my Hmong and Asian American community in Siskiyou. The people’s @AGRobBonta has responded & Zurg (who was entering day 19 of his hunger strike) can finally go home to rest - bc the larger fight has just begun. #SibPabSibHlub #ZurgStrong
