[A picture containing diagram  Description automatically generated]The Society of Ohio Archivists condemns violence against Asian American and Pacific Island people.

April 8, 2021- We stand with AAPI communities as they face rising discrimination, violence, and hate crimes. Just last week, another racist attack was recorded for the world to see, as 65-year-old Vilma Kari was knocked to the ground and beaten, while bystanders did nothing. This happened two weeks after the horrific attack and murder of Soon Chung Park, Hyun Jung Grant, Suncha Kim, Yong Ae Yue, Delaina Ashley Yaun, Paul Andre Michels, Xiaojie Tan, and Daoyou Feng in Georgia, fueled by anti-Asian racism and misogyny. We are angry and we will not be silent bystanders.

The AAPI community is enduring increased acts of hatred and violence largely because of the racist rhetoric that has been so prevalent since the beginning of the pandemic. However, we know that racism towards Asian Americans and Pacific Island people is not new. As archivists, we understand and have a responsibility to not only shed light on these truths, but to also foster safe spaces for discussions about these painful and traumatic histories. We also commit to celebrating AAPI stories of joy, not just those of pain and violence. AAPI people are Americans, they belong, and their stories are part of the fabric that tells our shared past.

We endorse the statement made by the Midwest Archives Conference<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.midwestarchives.org%2Fstatement-in-support-of-aapi-community&data=04%7C01%7Ccarleton%40ohio.edu%7Cdc58bf04d6fc4353f92c08d90049e368%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637541139609559079%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=q5GaOYnQ511juKggiyW7R8275NLsrOeYHsO0axkTMdg%3D&reserved=0> and encourage other institutions to take a stand as well. Unity cannot be achieved with neutrality or silence.
