• Asian Americans Rally A protest and vigil was held in downtown Detroit to denounce the spa shootings in Atlanta, which left 8 dead, including 6 Asian American women. The shootings come at a time of increasing attacks against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. According to the group, Stop AAPI Hate, there have been 3,800 hate incidents recorded since the beginning of the pandemic. Hundreds gathered—people from many Asian American communities and their supporters—to voice their concern. For some, coming to the event marked their first time to speak out in public against violence and discrimination against the AAPI community.
