…The first and most important step in solving issues is to show up. And all of you have done that…

…Think about how much potential we lose if we aren’t hiring, electing, promoting, and advocating people because of our assumptions that they are other. And think about the lives lost because of it…

…Find joy in standing up for others. Find joy in learning about other people’s culture and background. Find joy not in helping the oppressed, but helping yourself because we are all the victims of racism from an overall perspective…

…The one serious side effect of this pandemic has been a surge of anti-Asian discrimination here in the United States as a result of racist [inaudible] by people who want to blame others for something outside of their control…

…We have endured dirty looks, sideways glances, we’ve heard the racist, racial slurs. We have witnessed violence against our community. All because of our race…

State Representative Emily Weber (D-24).

…We need your voice. And your voice will be heard by getting involved….Get involved with organizations that stand with your values or issues you’re concerned about. You can also register, if you aren’t already, to vote. Then, go get five other people to vote. Then go vote in every single election. [applause] The last action item you can do is run for office. We need you on school boards, city councils, state reps, senate, U.S. Representative, everything…
