n Asian American justice group has blamed White supremacy and racism as the cause for Tuesday night's Atlanta shooting and is calling for communities of color to band together to condemn racist violence. In a statement released Wednesday, Stephanie Cho, executive director of Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Atlanta, said: “We are heartbroken by these acts of violence. Six Asian women lost their lives. Now is the time to hold the victims and their families in our hearts and in our light. We’re calling on our allies across communities of color to stand with us in grief and solidarity against racist violence in all its forms. When our most vulnerable community members are targeted, we all need to band together." "While the details of the shootings are still emerging, this happened under the trauma of increasing violence against Asian Americans nationwide, fueled by white supremacy and systemic racism. While anti-Asian violence is woven throughout our nation’s history, the Trump administration’s scapegoating of Asians for the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has increased the incidence of hate and violence against Asian Americans. According to the most recent data, hate incidents targeting Asian Americans rose by nearly 150% in 2020, with Asian American women twice as likely to be targeted," the statement continued. Phi Nguyen, litigation director at the organization, said: “That the Asian women murdered yesterday were working highly vulnerable jobs during an ongoing pandemic speaks directly to the compounding impacts of sexism, structural violence, and white supremacy.” The statement called for local and state government to "provide robust in-language interpretation and translation for crisis intervention resources, including support for mental health and immigration services. It is time for Georgia to invest in transformative justice that begins with cross racial dialogue and community-building." --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/truth-tv-2/support

The Oklahoma high school basketball announcer who hurled racist insults during a livestream of a state basketball game has apologized for his actions. In a statement obtained by CNN, Matt Rowan said he "most regrettably made some statements that cannot be taken back." He said that he is a Type 1 diabetic and during the game his blood sugar was spiking. He offered a "sincere apology" to all involved in the game and said it's "not unusual" for him to become disoriented and say inappropriate and hurtful things. "While the comments I made would certainly seem to indicate that I am a racist, I am not," he said. "I have never considered myself to be racist, and in short cannot explain why I made those comments." On Thursday, the Norman High School girls' basketball team was about to play Midwest City in the Oklahoma 6A state basketball tournament -- a game that was being livestreamed by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Network. A video of the livestream shows that when the Norman players kneeled during the National Anthem, Rowan began to hurl insults at them. "They're kneeling? F**king n***ers," Rowan is heard saying. "I hope Norman gets their ass kicked." After a short pause, with the National Anthem still playing, the insults continue. "F**k them," Rowan says. "I hope they lose." "C'mon Midwest City -- they're gonna kneel like that? Hell no," Rowan says. Rowan uses the same slurs one more time before the audio on the recording cuts out. The Tahlequah Public Schools athletic department said in a statement that it contracted the crew to broadcast the basketball tournament, but the crew is not a part of the Tahlequah High School or the athletic department. The school system has terminated its contract with the company, Matt Cloud, athletic director for TPS, said in the statement. CNN has reached out to Rowan's attorney for additional comment but has not heard back. In a statement released Friday, NFHS said that it was "sickened by the comments made last night." "The thoughts expressed in no way represent the NFHS Network and we are outraged that they found their way into our production," the organization said in its statement. "We are aggressively investigating the incident and have immediately cut ties with the third-party production crew that was involved." In a series of tweets on Friday, Norman Mayor Breea Clark said she is "livid and absolutely disgusted about the racist and hateful comments directed towards the young women on the Norman High School basketball team." --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/truth-tv-2/support
