a4bl:#Asians4BlackLives is celebrating the Year of the Ram by supporting safety, justice, and resilience for Black communities. We’re passing out red envelopes at the San Francisco Chinese New Year parade to ask our communities to reflect on Black Lives Matter and their relationship to the movement.One of the traditions we honor today is repaying our debts in order start the new year on a positive note. Today, we are paying homage to the great debt we owe to Black struggle. As Asian Americans, we enjoy many rights that were fought for and won by Black liberation movements, from civil rights to immigration reform. Today, we too have the power to stand on the side of justice.The act of giving red envelopes is a way to share luck, well wishes and prosperity. We wish you and your family a happy and safe Year of the Ram, and hope you will join us in the Black Lives Matters movement and conversation by collectively wishing the same for Black folks as well. -- source link
