Holding Space for Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay

Militantly Mixed: Mixed Race Podcast

I wanted to share some thoughts and hold space for the Asian American, Asian immigrant, and Mixed Asian communities regarding the recent mass shootings in Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay. A total off 11 killed and 9 wounded in Monterey Park and 5 killed in Half Moon Bay by two elderly, Asian men. These are both very violent and confusing incidents for the Asian Diaspora. I wish to acknowledge it, pay my respects, and hold space for the community.

If you would like to make a donation to the Monterey Park Victims Fund, please visit their GoFundMe. There is also a fund for the victims of Half Moon Bay, on GoFundMe as well.
