This piece is from a new series in progress titled UNAPPARENT that seeks to reflect the myriad perceptions of the AAPI community as its members respond to escalated, but not new, incidences of hate and violence. The work also aims to speak to the violence directly, ask what it means to be safe, explore a community’s options in the face of discrimination as well as a society’s responsibility to protect all of its members, and address the complex distortions and realities of American assimilation.
