Just as I was about to post a happy Lunar New Year photo I received this video from 8th and Harrison in Chinatown, outside the Asian Resource Center. My heart sank.
⠀
It reminds me too much of the 84-year old Asian man who was assaulted and died in San Francisco last week.
⠀
According to the Chinatown Chamber of Commerce President, this suspect attacked several others that very same day.
⠀
It all comes he documented over 20 robberies and assaults in Chinatown in two weeks.
⠀
Today president Carl Chan felt optimistic change would be made as business owners gathered for a press conference with the mayor and city leaders.
⠀
Chinatown seniors he says “are afraid to go outside” but I’ve learned there are efforts being made to help escort them around town. This is a resilient community and there are many efforts to help which I’m looking forward to reporting on soon ❤️
