Podcasts about anti asian hate

In this powerful episode of Everyday Conversations on Race, host Simma the Inclusionist sits down with Emmy award-winning journalist and author Dion Lim to confront a question too many are avoiding: "Why has the conversation about anti-Asian hate gone silent"? Dion takes us behind the headline-making DM that changed her career — an anonymous video of an elderly Asian man being brutally beaten in San Francisco — and reveals what it took to bring stories like his to light when her own newsroom resisted.  From the murder of Vincent Chin to COVID-era scapegoating, she traces the deep historical roots of anti-Asian racism in America. She explains why the silence after the peak of BLM and Stop AAPI Hate is not just disappointing — it's dangerous. Topics in This Episode: Why anti-Asian hate is "as old as the Gold Rush" — and why we're erasing that history The cultural shame that keeps Asian American victims from speaking out The death threats and hit pieces Dion faced for reporting the truth How DEI rollbacks are affecting communities right now What Black-Asian solidarity actually looks like on the ground The role food, music, and pop culture play in bridging racial divides Dion's new book Amplify: My Fight for Asian America (foreword by Olivia Munn) You'll hear: The anonymous 12-second DM that changed everything — a video of an elderly Asian man being attacked while collecting cans in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood Why Asian American victims often don't come forward: cultural conditioning, family shame, distrust of media, and generational silence Anti-Asian hate isn't new — from the Gold Rush to Vincent Chin to Yik Oi Huang and Vishal Ratanapakdee How COVID gave people permission to blame Asians — and how "kung flu" and "China virus" language fueled violenc The backlash Dion faced: a Washington Post hit piece orchestrated by a former DA's team, death threats from people who denied anti-Asian hate was real Why the Asian American community isn't monolithic — income inequality, cultural differences, and the "model minority" myth The connection between Black and Asian communities — shared history, manufactured division, and what solidarity actually looks like on the ground Grassroots response: patrol groups, the Blue Angels in Oakland, and the role of everyday people showing up for each other Simma's own history with the original Rainbow Coalition — The Young Patriots, the Black Panthers, the Young Lords, and Asian groups working together in the late '60s and '70s The immigrant parent dynamic: silence as survival, pride as a long time coming, and what it meant when Dion's father finally expressed pride after her 20/20 appearance What Dion wants for the next generation: be loud, find your community, take care of your mental health, and don't be afraid to take up space TV recommendation: Warrior — the series about the rise of the Tongs and how Chinese workers were treated in California The ask: get Amplify on the New York Times bestseller list — and why it matters beyond sales Key Learnings: Silence is not safety. When institutions stop talking about race, hate doesn't disappear — it goes underground and grows. The rollback of DEI programs and race coverage in newsrooms makes communities more vulnerable, not more comfortable. Anti-Asian hate has deep American roots. This isn't a COVID story. It goes back to the Gold Rush, the Chinese Exclusion Act, and the murder of Vincent Chin. Understanding that history is the first step to not repeating it. Cultural conditioning keeps people quiet. Many Asian Americans are raised to not cause a fuss, not draw attention, not inconvenience others. That silence protects no one — it protects the people doing harm. Division between communities is often manufactured. The tension between Black and Asian communities didn't come from nowhere. It was seeded deliberately, and it dissolves quickly when people actually get to know each other. You don't have to share someone's experience to show up for them. The people who moved Dion most weren't Asian — they were people from every background who said "I didn't know, and now I do."

【主播的话】去年一个偶然的机会，我在纽约认识了高琴教授，还发现我们是邻居。在那之前，我已经对高琴教授的有所耳闻。她是著作丰硕的社会政策学者，在哥伦比亚大学社会工作学院任教，是讲席教授，同时担任博士项目主管副院长，以研究中国贫困问题见长。她常年组织大规模的社会调查，用数据来研究贫困的根源、影响与政策应对。她同时还是哥大“亚裔美国人”项目主任。在哥大——一个竞争激烈、精英云集、以全球化和多元化闻名、但却仍然主要由白人学者执掌的常春藤高校——能做到管理层的亚裔女性，仍然少之又少。这背后所需要的努力与卓越，超出常人想象。认识之后，邻里的便利让我们多了一些深聊的机会。串门这件事，在硕大的纽约并不常见——跟朋友约着喝个咖啡，通勤很可能要一小时以上。我们俩都来自县城，分享着从小地方到北京再到美国的点滴，在繁华的纽约这也不常见——能在这里留下扎根的华人朋友，大多数还是出身于中国的大城市，有着较好的家庭支持。我带着初到纽约的许多困惑，向她寻求过职业上的建议、也分享过生活的琐碎。而她也总是在极其繁忙的日程中挤出时间，跟我见面或者电话。我渐渐感到，她的本人比外在那些光鲜的标签还要闪光。她告诉我，自己如何开始对贫困问题感兴趣：在并不发达的山西县城长大，她从小就对贫困问题有切身感知。有乞丐上门讨食，奶奶永远会为他们准备食物，不让这些人空手而归。她那时就播下了种子，想知道：穷人为什么会如此贫穷？有什么办法可以改变他们的境遇吗？后来她离开山西、去了北京、上了北大；又离开中国、到了纽约，加入哥大，成为了全球知名的贫困和不平等研究学者。通过研究政策、改变政策的方式，为这些根深蒂固的贫困问题提出解法。在与高琴老师的数次聊天中，我时常感到启发与鼓舞。便向她发出邀请，到播客上来做一次分享，希望更多的人——特别是那些在世界不同地方被贫困、阶层、社会地位、性别种族偏见、历史周期暂时困住了的人——可以听到她的故事。【本期主播】王磬：微博@王磬【本期嘉宾】高琴：哥伦比亚大学莫里斯 · 罗素社会政策与社会工作实务讲席教授，社会工作学院博士教育主管副院长，哥大中国社会政策研究中心的创始主任，哥大“亚裔美国人”项目主任【本期剧透】01:41 童年种子：从山西农村到县城的人生跃迁07:15 从贵州/山西到北京，贫富差距与视野巨变10:33 不仅要看贫困率的“面”，更要看贫困人口具体的感受和体验的“深度”16:32 低收入人口如何界定？低收入意味着什么？21:07 中国低保制度的缘起与发展25:29 福利会养懒汉吗？中、美、欧的福利观有何不同？29:52 在美华人日渐增多，如何做这个群体的社会调查？37:37 亚裔美国人研究项目：从社会科学视角补齐历史缺失42:07 亚裔女性学者需要找到自己的勇气与能动性50:04 如何向学界证明亚裔课题的重要性？56:57 纽约生活与归属感：在第二故乡回馈社会【Get In Touch】高琴教授最近也刚刚开设了专门助力亚裔女性在美国职场发展的教练与培训服务。如果对此类服务感兴趣，欢迎发邮件咨询：gaocoaching@gmail.com【相关阅读】福利、工作与贫困：中国的社会救助Welfare, Work, and Poverty: Social Assistance in China作者：高琴出版社：Oxford University Press出版时间：2017年本书对中国主要的社会救助项目——“最低生活保障制度”（简称“低保”）自1993年建立以来的影响和成效进行了系统且全面的评估。低保制度肩负着双重功能：既要为贫困人口提供基础的安全网，又要维护社会的政治稳定。书中利用大量的实证研究证据，分析了这一全球覆盖人口最多的福利项目的实际运作情况。该书为政治学家、经济学家、社会学家、公共政策研究者以及社会工作者提供了理解当代中国社会转型和安全网构建的重要参考文献。Poverty Tracker纽约市贫困追踪者项目由哥伦比亚大学贫困与社会政策中心（Center on Poverty and Social Policy, CPSP）与纽约最大的扶贫慈善机构罗宾汉基金会（Robin Hood Foundation）共同发起。通过长期、高频的追踪，动态观察纽约居民如何进入贫困、如何挣扎以及如何脱贫。该项目于2012年启动，追踪一个由约 3,000 至 4,000 户纽约市家庭组成的代表性样本。项目最初每三个月（季度）进行一次调研，以捕获短期生活波动（如一次突发的医疗支出或失业）。自2022年起，调研频率调整为每年三次（即每四个月一次）。除了传统的“收入贫困”指标，它还衡量物质匮乏（如食物不足、无力支付账单）、健康状况以及社会流动性。其数据多次被纽约市政府用于评估最低工资政策、带薪家事假以及税收减免的效果，是美国地方政府制定反贫困政策的重要实证基础。根据其2026年3月发布的最新年度报告显示，由于通货膨胀和生活成本上升，纽约市的贫困率已攀升至 26%（约220万人）。罗宾汉基金会研究报告页面：https://robinhood.org/reports/poverty-tracker-annual-report-vol-8/哥伦比亚大学官方页面：https://povertycenter.columbia.edu/node/191全美华人调查National Survey of Chinese Americans该研究由哥伦比亚大学社会工作学院（高琴教授团队）与百人会（Committee of 100）于2022年联合开展首轮调查。它是目前针对美国华裔群体规模最大、覆盖面最广的社会调查之一，样本量接近 6,500名华裔成年人。调查不仅关注人口普查式的基本数据，更深入探讨了以下议题：身份认同与归属感：华裔如何看待自己在美身份以及“永久外国人”的刻板印象。歧视与心理健康：量化反亚裔仇恨（Anti-Asian Hate）对华裔日常生活、心理安全感的影响。政治参与度：华裔在选举、社区事务中的参与现状及政治偏好。经济贡献与差距：打破“模范少数族裔”的单一叙事，揭示华裔内部巨大的经济差距与贫困问题。该调查的数据为政策制定者、社区组织和学术界提供了极具价值的实证支持，旨在消除对华裔群体的误解，推动针对该群体的社会服务与政策改善。哥大中国社会政策中心研究报告发布页面：https://chinacenter.socialwork.columbia.edu/news/full-report-the-state-of-chinese-americans百人会官方项目主页 (State of Chinese Americans)：https://www.committee100.org/our-work/state-of-chinese-americans-survey/【本期音乐】Goldberg Variations, BWV. 988 - Variation 18.

In this program, Russell M. Jeung, professor of Asian American Studies at San Francisco State University, explores COVID-19 racism against Asian Americans, which led to what he terms a period of “collective racial trauma.” Twenty-five peer-reviewed articles have since documented the deleterious impacts of direct and indirect racism on the mental health of Asian Americans. Yet Asian Americans have been resilient in the face of this trauma, and utilized their ethnic and cultural wealth as buffers against anti-Asian hate. Jeung identifies three key ways that Asian Americans responded to this trauma and even grew from this painful time. Asian Americans' posttraumatic growth, the positive psychological change after trauma incidents, is also be detailed. Jeung is the author of many books and articles on race and religion. In 2020, he co-founded Stop AAPI Hate to track instances of bias, harassment, and violence against AAPI people during Covid-19 and to fight racism.

Anti-Asian hate incidents rose dramatically during COVID, likely fueled by prominent statements about the “Chinese virus.”  VIewed through the wider lens of history, this was just the latest in a long experience of Anti-Asian hate, including the murder of Vincent Chin, the Chinese Exclusion Act, and the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII.  For those who think that anti-Asian hate has receded as the COVID has “ended,” just two days prior to recording this episode a Filipino woman was pushed to her death on BART in San Francisco. These incidents are broadcast widely, particularly in Asian News outlets. Today we talk about the impact of anti-Asian hate on the health and well being of older adults with Russell Jeung, sociologist, Professor of Asian Studies at San Francisco State, and co-founder of Stop AAPI-Hate, Lingsheng Li, geriatrician/palliative care doc and T32 fellow at UCSF, and Jessica Eng, medical director of On Lok, a PACE, and Associate Professor in the UCSF Division of Geriatrics.  We discuss: What is considered a hate incident, how is it tracked, what do we know about changes over time The wider impact of Anti-Asian hate on older Asians, who are afraid to go out, leading to anxiety, social isolation, loneliness, decreased exercise, missed appointments and medications. Lingsheng (and I) recently published studies on this in JAMA Internal Medicine, and JAGS. Ongoing reports from patients about anti-Asian hate experiences  Should clinicians screen for Anti-Asian hate? Why? Why not? Proposing the clinicians ask a simple follow up question to the usual “do you feel safe at home?” question used to screen for domestic violence.  Add to this, “do you feel safe outside the home?” This question, while providing an opportunity to talk about direct and indirect experiences, can be asked of all patients, and opens the door to conversations about anti-semitism, islamophobia, or anti-Black racism. See also guides for how to confront and discuss anti-Asian hate in these articles in the NEJM and JGIM. And to balance the somber subject, Lingsheng requested the BTS song Dynamite, which was the group's first English language song, and was released at the height of the COVID pandemic.  I had fun trying to make a danceable version with electronic drums for the audio-only podcast.  Maybe we'll get some BTS followers to subscribe to GeriPal?!?   -@AlexSmithMD

  As some of you may know, I was attacked by a White man walking in the park around 9:45 am.  This is a park where they hold summer camps and many kids were around. I bring my kids here on the weekends and celebrated one of their birthdays there just this past May.     The latest crime data shows that 11% of assault victims citywide in San Francisco are Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.     25% of the elder abuse victims are AAPI, the highest among all the racial groups.   As a victim, you keep replaying in your mind what you could have done differently.  And what can you do now to protect yourself and your communities.      So I am reposting this episode with Lisa Mak, where we discuss:    - Why there is a rise in anti-Asian hate. - How discrimination can cause you to lose your sense of self.  - What you can do to fight anti-Asian hate. - How choosing to speak up can help our communities.  - Why you should light a candle instead of cursing the darkness. - How we still have the ability to choose joy even during these difficult times.   Connect with Lisa https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisapmak/ and www.minamitamaki.com.

Anti-Asian hate spiked 145 percent in 2020 during the height of the pandemic. At the same time, nearly one-third of the COVID deaths among nurses were Filipina nurses. As we look back at the first three years of the COVID-19 pandemic, increasingly complex stories continue to emerge. How can religious literacy and a lens of racial justice inform the stories that we and our students hear, tell, and seek out? The Religion and Public Life program at Harvard Divinity School hosted a conversation with Professor Aprilfaye Manalang of Norfolk State University to learn about her ongoing research on religious identity, grief, and COVID with Filipina-American nurses, as well as Jeanne Shin-Cooper of Buffalo Grove High School in Illinois whose students are taking part in this critical interview project. Prof. Manalang discussed her pedagogical practice of promoting Asian-American understanding at a Historically Black University, and the process of communicating this research to a public audience via podcast. This event took place May 8, 2023. A full transcript is forthcoming. Learn more: https://rpl.hds.harvard.edu/

There are many versions of our American story. For some it is a gateway to freedom and opportunity, for others it is where only some can thrive, often at the expense of less valued communities. As always, the truth is complex and nuanced and data, when our public leaders choose to collect it, tells the true story. A global pandemic exposed and deepened America's fault lines, revealing how historical policy making decisions steeped in racism and anti-immigrant bias created strikingly disparate outcomes to the crisis. The truths are profound and unimpeachable, shocking but not truly surprising. In this episode of Power Station, Alvina Yeh, executive director of Asian Pacific Islander American Labor Alliance, explains that xenophobia and inequitable healthcare, education and workforce systems were realities well before the pandemic struck. But the story is now elevated, and it is time for new voices to inform policy makers, employers, and the labor sector about their lived experiences and how to craft policy solutions to protect and expand the rights of AAPIs, our fastest growing working population. APALA is where dynamic AAPI leaders make change and equity possible. These are stories that we all need to hear.

An Asian American student was stabbed multiple times in the head while waiting to get off a bus at Indiana University. The attack has yet to be called a hate crime, though the attacker reportedly targeted the victim because she was “Chinese.” It's clear that anti-Asian violence continues even past the surge the U.S. saw in 2020. But what more needs to be done? Reset discusses with a panel of Asian American activists and community members.

GUEST Masaru Tanabe is a 34 year old disabled trans non-binary Japanese American fiber artist. Contracting the H1N1 (Swine flu) virus in 2009 left them with ME/CFS, a post-viral syndrome which, combined with their genetic disability of Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos, has left them so disabled that they are now unable to work. They now spend their time making and selling fiber art online, and bringing awareness about Disability issues, anti-Asian Hate crimes, and Trans Rights issues.

This includes cisgender, transgender, agender and gender nonconforming individuals. Ableism - discrimination against disabled people, in favor of able-bodied people. TAKEAWAYS 1. If you are a victim of discrimination, you do not owe closure to your oppressor. You do not have to suppress your own feelings in order to make them feel better about what they did. 2. Disabled is not a dirty word. It's just a fact. Talking about disability should not be a taboo. Not talking about disability keeps the disabled community invisible, and makes it harder for them to access the support they deserve. 3. The way we view disability in the west is only one of many possible ways to do so, and a better system is possible for all the stakeholders. In Japan, instead of viewing disabled people as a liability, they use technology to empower disabled people to work and to continue to be an integral part of their community. 4. Despite the Americans with Disabilities Act, the accessibility standards are not comprehensive enough to ensure access. Builders will often meet the minimum ADA requirements and neglect to add essential features such as curb cuts if they are not required to do so. 5. Anti-Asian hate crime has been on the rise since the pandemic, and many of us, myself included, do not feel safe in spaces where we are the only Asian or person of color. 6. Even if you live in a community that is deemed liberal or progressive, you cannot assume that there isn't racism. Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles are not immune to racism. If you want to be true allies, ask your friends about their experiences, and ask them how you can be of help. Most of us will not tell you unless you ask, because we don't always know how you'll react. 7. Being an ally is a title that you earn through action, not by association.

Hate crimes against the Asian American Pacific Islander community have been on the rise since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Reset talks with Seong-Ah Cho, director of organizing for Asian Americans Advancing Justice Chicago and Natasha Chan, board member for Asians are Strong, about the steps they and their organizations are taking to combat that hate.

In March 2021, a 21-year-old man murdered eight people, including six women of Asian descent, at three spas in Atlanta, Georgia. The act of violence was one of the most dramatic assaults in a wave of anti-Asian hate that surged during COVID. For many, the tragic events became a galvanizing moment, reigniting a sense of collective identity and political engagement within Asian American and Pacific Island (AAPI) communities. A new documentary on PBS, Rising Against Asian Hate: One Day in March, spotlights the movement to turn grief into action and address the challenges that exist when it comes to prosecuting anti-Asian hate crimes. Executive producer Gina Kim is an Emmy-nominated producer, and the film features narration from actress Sandra Oh, original music by Jon Batiste and is directed by Titi Yu. Join Laura and Gina for this impactful conversation on combating anti-Asian hate.“Out of the hate crimes that were being prosecuted against Asian Americans, only 3% ended in a conviction, which is incredibly low.” - Gina Kim". . . People aren't just lying down and saying, ‘This is what it is.' They're fighting back and protecting their communities.” - Gina KimGuest:  Gina Kim, Emmy-nominated Producer & Executive Producer, Rising Against Asian Hate: One Day in March Celebrate changemakers with us in beautiful Callicoon, NY!

This week in Asian American politics: - California lawmakers say #ContinueAsianHate and vote to keep the prison-to-ICE deportation pipeline, something that affects many Southeast Asians (see Phoeun You). - SF District Attorney Brooke Jenkins takes California back to the 1990s by being "tough on crime." Her team is reviewing past cases to see if hate crime labels can be applied to them retroactively. Will this actually do anything to solve the root issues leading to crime in SF? - Two noncontroversial Anti-Asian Hate bills pass in CA, just not the ones actually actively harming Asian peoples' lives (see ICE deportation issue above) - Kathy Hochul makes masks optional on all public transit in NYC. The only places masks are required now are hospitals and nursing homes.

“Because there were so few people who looked like me in my business throughout my career, I've been so cautious about drawing attention to my ethnicity, to my gender. To bring these issues to the fore has been very uncomfortable, but necessary. I hope that I've inspired people in my own community to no longer be content to sit on the sidelines. It's been an incredible experience to see this community come together.” Lisa Ling is a beloved and gifted journalist and TV star. Since the age of 18, she has traveled the world as a reporter. Lisa's reporting always gets to the human heart of the stories she uncovers. She is a bright star within the Asian American community. But in the wake of COVID-19 – as violent attacks and other racist activity against Asian-Americans skyrocketed – she stepped up into an even more powerful and visible role. This week, Van and Lisa talk about the impact of anti-Asian racism and how the Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) community has come together. They bond over the often overlooked but rich history of solidarity between Asian and African Americans in the United States. Tune in to hear what true solidarity sounds like, how we can come together in times of violence, and why it's so important that we recognize our shared goals. #StopAsianHate New episodes of Uncommon Ground with Van Jones release weekly, every Wednesday.

This is the story of a girl and her car. That girl is me, May, and the car is Bonnie Blue 2.0. Believe it or not, this story is related to Anti-Asian Hate and how the anxiety of this ongoing crisis has made me and others think twice about what we wear, drive, live and socialize. I'm sharing this story because it could have ended with total defeat and heartbreak, but because of the power of storytelling and connecting with others, this has a happy and inspiring ending. Bonnie Blue 2.0 served as so much more than just a pretty car. She played a role in fighting Asian Hate. 

Racism and hate crimes against those who are of Asian descent are prevalent in the U-S since the COVID-19 outbreak. Chang Kwark shows us Utah is not exempt from anti-Asian hate.

Julio is joined by Jason Wu, public defender at the Legal Aid Society's Harlem Community Law Office, and Tiffany Diane Tso, freelance writer, editor, and co-founder of the Asian American Feminist Collective. They reflect on the rise in hate crimes targeting different Asian American communities, and how to build community safety beyond policing. They also get into the opportunity for multiracial solidarity in light of the increasing white supremacist violence in this country. ITT Staff Picks: “A year after the shootings, many additional attacks on Asian Americans have continued across the country, something activists view as part of the long tradition of violence and discrimination against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders woven through the nation's history,” by Frances Kai-Hwa Wang for PBS Newshour in April 2022. In this analysis of data from AAPI Data and Momentive, professors Janelle Wong and Sara Sadhwani found that “all racial groups experienced a hate crime over the first months of 2022 at very similar rates to one another.” “In interviews with more than a dozen community members — from shopkeepers to long term residents and elected officials — one particular sentiment coursed through the interviews: The systems that were supposed to protect people — from homeless people to the elderly and women — have failed Chinatown,” writes Lam Thuy Vo in this piece for Documented.

It's been just over a year since six Asian women were among eight people shot and killed at Atlanta-area spas. Since those attacks, more acts of violence seemingly targeted at Asian-Americans have left the community on edge. In part one of a special two-part series, we examine how victims' families are coping and why advocates say it matters whether these acts are classified as hate crimes.

Seventy-four percent of Asian American and Pacific Islander women reported having personally experienced racism or discrimination in the last 12 months, according to a new study by the National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum. The news comes as we approach the March 16 anniversary of the murder of eight people, most of them Asian women, at three Atlanta-area spas. We'll discuss the latest data on harassment and hate crimes against Asian Americans and what civil rights groups and others are doing to fight it Guests: Russell Jeung, professor of Asian American studies, San Francisco State University; co-founder, Stop AAPI Hate R.O. Kwon , author, the novel "The Incendiaries,"; co-editor, the anthology "KINK: Stories," and the Vanity Fair article, "A Letter to My Fellow Asian Women Whose Hearts Are Still Breaking." Nellie Tran, Associate Professor of Counseling and School Psychology, San Diego State University.

It's been 2 years since "The May Lee Show" launched as a scrappy, experimental vodcast that set out to elevate AAPI voices and issues. It's been a challenging two years...COVID-19, Anti-Asian Hate, social and political unrest. But something happened recently that made May stop and assess her purpose very deeply...the suicide of Cheslie Kryst, former Miss USA, attorney and correspondent for "Extra". In this episode, May, a 55-year-old Asian woman, explains why the suicide of a very successful 31-year-old black woman has shaken her deeply and is prompting her to take a breath and pause. It's honest, it's raw and it's exactly what she wants to say to whomever wants to listen.

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 4! We start by talking about Michelle Alyssa Go, the Asian American woman recently killed by being pushed on the subway tracks near Times Square in New York. It's another tragic death of someone in the Asian Pacific American community. Our main segment is on the impact of Asian Americans in the Fishing and Shrimping Industries. From the Chinese in Monterey to the Vietnamese around the Gulf of Mexico, Asian Americans have had an impact in both fishing and shrimping despite discrimination and hate. We close out with a short segment on the meaning and origin of the phrase, “Chop Chop.” Is it racist? We give our take on it. Have you been the victim of Anti-Asian Hate? We encourage you to report to a group like Stop AAPI Hate. To learn more, please visit our site at https://asianamericanhistory101.libsyn.com or https://linktr.ee/AAHistory101 for social media.
