Since the start of the global pandemic, there has been an increasing number of violent and verbal attacks against the global Asian community. We are appalled at recent attacks in Atlanta, San Francisco and New York and condemn the surge in anti-Asian racism across the US and other parts of the world.

At the Press, we stand with all who support diversity and tolerance and oppose hatred and discrimination. Racism has no place in our communities or our societies.

Here are some free resources to help us all stand together.
