An amazing story on the new #Asianam disinfo table. We at @equalitylabs are a co-chair and are proud to join our partners in breaking the silence on racist, sexist, & casteist disinfo that is dividing #asianam communities and building power to stop it: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/racist-sexist-disinformation-sowing-divisions-asian-americans-rcna42635

With #SB1161 heading to the Assembly floor, here’s a reminder from @SenDaveMin of what’s at stake: “Increasing safety is paramount to restoring rider trust & confidence in our beleaguered public transit systems.” #CALeg #NoPlaceForHateCA @StopAAPIHate https://calmatters.org/commentary/2022/07/restoring-a-sense-of-safety-could-boost-public-transit-ridership/

DYK CA allows its jails to hand people to @ICEgov for deportation *after* their sentence is over? It does! And, as our latest research shows, that policy is rooted in anti-Asian racism.
