Thank you to the thousands who attended Asian Justice Rally on Jan. 30, 2022 in-person in SF, NYC, LA, Philly, Chicago, Atlanta and worldwide on livestream. Grandpa Vicha will be forever in our hearts as we fight for Asian justice. #AsianJusticeRally #WeWillNotBeSilenced #BreakTheSilence

The Asian Justice Rally was a national rally on the Jan. 30th anniversary of the death of 84-year old Thai grandfather Vicha Ratanapakdee, commemorating him and the many victims of Asian hate. We rallied so that his death was not in vain, but rather serves as our inspiration to continue the fight for Asian justice.

Join us next to Break The Silence: Justice for Asian Women on the anniversary of Atlanta Spa Shootings on March 16th.
