To decrease bullying and prevent incidents of anti-Asian discrimination, educators and families can play a critical role in helping young people understand the history and context for anti-Asian racism in the United States and around the world that has flared up due to COVID-19 first known in China.

See Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell’s statements on anti-Asian violence:

• “Oakland Stands United Against Racism“
• “I Wish You a Happy Lunar New Year, But at Same Time, I’m Outraged by Anti-Asian Violence Across the Bay Area“
• “Hatred and Violence Harm the People Targeted, but Also Society as a Whole; Let’s End These Scourges Together“
