为了黑人生命运动发表声明谴责反亚裔暴力

为了黑人生命运动(The Movement for Black Lives )谴责最近几个月发生的反亚裔暴力。我们重申非裔和亚裔社区的团结是坚定的,亚裔的生命是重要的,亚裔的解放也是黑人解放运动的一部分。

今年伊始,加州和纽约社区发生多起针对亚裔的攻击,在旧金山导致至少一名84岁的泰裔移民死亡。停止亚太裔仇恨(Stop AAPI Hate)组织自2020年三月已经记录了超过3000个针对亚裔的袭击事件,而通常这个数字是100。

最近的暴力事件标志着自新冠疫情爆发以来针对亚裔的攻击进入一个新的高潮。川普和他的白人至上同盟军带动了反亚裔的节奏并为这些暴力行为添油加柴。

在危机时期,法西斯主义领导人会通过指向并责备单一族群并使多族群陷入争斗的方式从公众恐惧和震惊中获取利益,这是黑人社区曾经经历过的这个国家最黑暗的部分。

我们认识到亚裔在美国并非单一族群,他们代表不同的文化背景,来源国家,移民状态,收入状况,民族等等。我们反对用某种有害的和不准确的定义将亚裔美国人和亚裔移民社区描述为单一形态而抹杀他们的生命和贡献。

我们和亚裔美国人群体一起谴责最新的暴力,呼吁民选官员记录并调查这些事件,唤起公众对“危机点”的意识,并采取行动防范更多的暴力。这是我们所有人发出声音的时候。

我们将继续努力提升黑人和亚裔之间共同的历史和抗争,同时加深我们我们对白人至上、反黑人、和系统性种族主义在我们社区的不同表现形式的理解。

爱和团结

M4BL Statement on Anti-Asian Violence

The Movement for Black Lives condemns anti-Asian violence happening across the U.S. in recent months. We affirm our solidarity with Asian American and Asian immigrant communities whose lives and futures matter and whose liberation we fight for alongside Black liberation. Asian and Black communities have a long history of shared solidarity and struggle.

Since the beginning of the year, communities from California to New York have seen multiple anti-Asian attacks that have resulted in the death of at least one person, an 84-year-old Thai immigrant in San Francisco. Stop AAPI Hate has documented over 3,000 anti-Asian attacks since March 2020 as compared to an average of 100 attacks recorded annually in previous years.

The recent violence marks the latest in a bout of hate crimes targeted at people of Asian origin since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Trump and his white supremacist allies fueled this violence through their anti-Asian rhetoric.

In times of crisis, fascist leaders capitalize on fear and panic by singling out and blaming particular groups and turning us against one another — an experience which Black communities have borne the brunt of in this country. 

We recognize Asians in the United States are not a monolith; they represent people from across cultures, nationalities, immigration status, income levels, ethnicities, and other identities. We oppose harmful and inaccurate narratives that paint Asian American and Asian immigrant communities with one brush in an effort to diminish their lives and their contributions.

We join with Asian American groups to condemn this renewed violence and call on elected officials to document and investigate these incidents, to draw attention to this “crisis point,” and to prevent any further violence. This is a time for all of us to speak up.

We will continue our efforts to uplift shared histories and struggles between Black and Asian people while deepening our understanding of the different ways in which white supremacy, anti-Blackness, and systemic racism show up in our communities.

With love and solidarity.

The Movement for Black Lives
