Actress Sandra Oh passionately addresses crowd at Pittsburgh rally: “I want to hear you say, I am proud to be Asian! I belong here!”

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris condemned racism days after eight people were killed in shootings at three spas in the metro area.ATLANTA -- A diverse crowd gathered Saturday near the Georgia state Capitol to demand justice for the victims of recent shootings at massage businesses and to denounce racism, xenophobia and misogyny.

Robert Aaron Long, a 21-year-old white man, is accused of killing four people inside two Atlanta spas and four others at a massage business about 30 miles away in suburban Cherokee County. Six of the eight people killed Tuesday were women of Asian descent. Another person was shot but survived. “Let’s join hands with our ally community and demand justice for not only these victims but for all victims of white supremacy,” she said.

Bernard Dong, a 24-year-old student from China at Georgia Tech, said he came out to the protest for the rights not just for Asians but for all minorities. “Many times Asian people are too silent, but times change,” he said.

Yes, you belong here. However, I am not proud of any immutable characteristics. I am proud to be a rational, empathetic and tenacious person. Those things in which people often categorize me are the least interesting things about me.

This is why we have this ridiculousness.these lying liberals have made ppl believe this was a hate crime.this shooter has already said he shots up these salons bc he had a sex addiction he was overcoming & they lit that fire.killing 2 white ppl inc is not hate.what bout them?

Oh sh**! Get it girl! Preach it Sandra!

Passionate American. Because of American laws and liberties that is what makes it great. Don’t listen to dishonesty. The media wants to divide America. Don’t fall for it. American diversity should be our strength.

I’m proud to be Asian

Atlanta is a Democrat bastion for decades - why are Spas allowed to foster sexual favors using illegal immigrants in the first place ? Get back to me Joe.

I am glad you are here and yes you all belong here.

Yessssssssssssss

We all need to raise our vibrations as a collective. The news agenda is to lower our vibrations through fear and divide and conquer tactics

I don't know why are people racist ? Why don't they have enough love and respect for each other Why can't they live peacefully on this one earth who loves everyone equally. worldpeace

So, only the Whites are Americans ? Because the Blacks are Africans, the Latinos..Latinos and the Chinese are ..Asians . Thats the end of a UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Destruction from within by the Lefties & PCC !

I thought that you were American ?

I'm proud to be Scottish, but nobody cares. The brits oughta!

I am proud to be Asian-American! I belong here!

Is this because someone killed someone over sex?

I’m confused, who said she shouldn’t be proud to be Asian

Who?

I miss the old days. When a minority group would go burn something down and steal a TV.

Oh man! You mean Asian lives matter also? Damn next thing you will be telling me that All Lives Matter.

... and then she and her private security team run back to Beverly Hills. lol

According to nonprofit anti-trafficking organization Polaris Project, there were more than 9,000 illicit massage parlors in the United States in 2017, mostly staffed by Chinese women, aged 35-55, with at least one child in China. Their struggle is often one for family & dignity

Are you going to riot and burn down towns now too?

Asians, Afroamericans, Latinos, Native Indians, Anglo-Saxons, Slavs ... All Fellow Americans! God bless America, land that we love ...!! All in an effort to keep our America great...!

Sorry lady, I am a shame to be one. You scream just because shit is at your door now. Weren't you guys the ones that supported Trump, now eat your own medicine. Those who attack the Asians are all Trump's followers. A present from Trump.

5 minutes

Keep up good work

I really don’t know anyone who dislikes Asians as a whole... of course there’s the stereotypes but am I missing something? I don’t think a few recent incidents mean the Asians are having a tough time out here lol

Has it been proven that Covid 19 really came from China. Where's the proof?

Don't let them confuse you. It's the CCP, not Asian Americans, that blocked Wuhan on 1/23/20, but released people to the world, causing more than 2.3m deaths. Someone here is helping to shift the focus of the China-U.S. meeting that they did not seek compensation from the CCP

They think to get attention you climb a 🌲 tree and act like a nut.

SO BRAVE! 🤣🤣🤣fucking idiot

The gunman told the police that he was a sex addict and that he wanted to 'eliminate the place that triggered his sex addiction', but the Democratic Party and the media tried hard to mislead that this was a hate crime initiated by racism. Why divide the USA for ur own benefit?

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Who said she didn’t? She’s worth 25 million dollars and supported by millions of views over many years.

Iam proud to be American 🇺🇸

🇺🇸🇺🇸👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Yes! Tell that to all the racist. Tell it because the truth is that these racist aren’t just white supremacy but white/ black/ brown...etc. I hope you r using your voice for the truth and not just for the left propaganda.

There IS more obvious Asian-dislike or hate crimes like with the woman wounded in S.F.,but that Atlanta man killed a VARIETY of people.Just like some men rape when hate OR like certain women he killed to stop his what he desired.Doubt about Asians.Those were sex PLACES for him.

Thats it ABC.. spread the lies, spread disunity, create division.. When all you have to do is tell the full facts but they dint fit your disgraceful narrative.

We're here for a reason. I believe a bit of the reason is to throw little torches out to lead people through the dark. -- Whoopi Goldberg

Blah blah blah. Very hate filled woman. Needs Prozac

Lovely ! AsiansSpeakUpForOurselves

Democrats and their media lackeys are doing everything possible to block you from complaining about inflation, higher taxes, higher gas prices and importation of illegal immigrants to take funds veterans and inner cities can't easily get.

I was shocked to hear this media narrative of skyrocketing hate crimes against Asian Americans so I looked into it. It's pretty weak. Yes, attacks did increase, but they're numerically so low to begin with in a nation of 330 Million that statistically speaking it's not impressive

Dm with your cash tag and get spoil ❤️

Part two: people have just had enough of the holier than now attitude! You can blame it on the coronavirus all you want and people saying it comes from China which it did but in reality people have just had enough of that holier than thou attitude!

This is the problem: it’s not corona!I’m in the grocery store I’m standing in line at customer service when an Asian woman cut in front of me put all her groceries on the counter and expected the customer service lady to check her out because she didn’t feel like standing in line

Fuck- she can get it! And yes, being Asian is a thing to be proud of and yes, Asian Americans belong here!

Sad how the killer in Atlanta did not appear classified as a hate crime and the media has already made up their mind that it was.

Start speaking out & naming the people & Republicans that r continuing to incite hate, bigotry& violence including former President, his lawyers, family & minions.First it was Muslims,then Hispanics,then African Americans,then Jews,then Asians while supporting White Supremacists!

America is built on racism. The very foundation of your country is slavery.

As an OWM, I wonder when our time to claim victimization will come about. Like Andy Wharol's 15 minutes of fame... we all will get a time to first be dissed by the Rising Others, then attacked..then claim our rightful place (again) in America!... Cynical , you say! Yes it is!

Beautiful!!Message of peace and unity.

Cringe.
