When Alex Hanesakda saw the tragic news that eight people were shot and killed in Atlanta on March 16, and that six of them were Asian women, he knew it was time for him to speak out.
What he wrote in the post, he also submitted to the Milwaukee Neighborhood News Service (bit.ly/3dwZlBU). The editorial was titled: â âIâm done keeping my head down:â Why we must stop the hate against Asian Americans (and everyone else).â
âAt first, I was like, âDo I say something?â â Hanesakda said, recalling when he first started seeing more reports of the hate crimes. âBut then (the shooting) happened. That was the straw that broke the camelâs back for me.â
