#VeryAsian is simply about flipping the words of a racist voicemail. It is not political, divisive, or unAmerican. In fact, we use it to show that #VeryAsian is #VeryAmerican . Don't get it twisted. We all deserve to bring our full humanity to spaces, including #AANHPI folks!

A viewer told an anchor to ‘keep her Korean to herself.’ Then ‘something amazing happened.’

Korean American news anchor Michelle Li told viewers she ate dumpling soup on New Year’s Day, and one criticized her for being "very Asian." An outpouring of support followed.

I was curious to see where the journalism would take us... in this case, if you get caught being very racist to AAPI strangers on camera, you can't keep your job at a school, where there AAPI students. It's not cancel culture, it's just a consequence.

Thank u @websteru for humbling me w/ a #Changemaker Award. Our entire community is responsible for creating the #veryasian movement, but I promise to do my best to harness goodwill into actionable change. It wouldn’t be possible without people. It will always be about people.

Someone texted in our hotline today saying that the women on the morning show needed to smile and laugh less. So. There's. That.

Even when the world feels heavy and the work is endless, we have to make time for us, our people, our loves, our joys. Sundays are (mostly) sacred around here these days. I love being this little person’s mama. #veryasian #momlife #babyjj #hapakids #mixedbabies #kad #stl @stlzoo

And one more add: This is how the term "model minority" was born. A harmful myth used to pit people against each other and silence discrimination at the same time. So much long-lasting damage from this racist and discriminatory policy.

Gas station MOS is really the lowest form of interviewing but it can be a means to an end
