Given the increase in hatred and violence toward Asian Americans and those of Asian identity, largely owed to the xenophobia and anti-Asian sentiment surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, solidarity with the Asian community is needed now more than ever.

Rain or shine, please join us for the TMC-wide Stop Asian Hate Rally, tomorrow, from noon to 1:30 p.m. on the Baylor College of Medicine Jewish Research Institute lawn (1200 Moursund, Houston, TX 77030) as we stand in solidarity with the Asian community, facing rising anti-Asian sentiments in the COVID time. As rain is possible, please prepare accordingly. Find more information about the rally on the event’s webpage.

If you are unable to make the event in person, please join us via Zoom.
