Introduction：The diversity and complexity of Asian Americans are significantly higher than that of other ethnic groups. Asian groups from different Asian regions and with different educational backgrounds often differ greatly in socioeconomic status, and their political, religious, and cultural barriers are quite deep, and they are quite alienated from each other. This has caused Asians to have insufficient say in American politics and social life. People should not do anything to hurt people. You can not think Asians brought the virus. Don’t think that every Asian is a bad guy.

Rosa, Amanda. “Attacks Against Asian New Yorkers: What to Know” www.nytimes.com/2021/03/23/nyregion/asian-new-yorkers-attacks.html The New York Times, March 23, 2021
Summary：In this article, the author describes a number of recent terrorist attacks caused by discrimination against Asians. In 2019, there were 29 terrorist attacks against people of Asian descent, because they hated Asians and believed that Asian victims carried coronavirus. So hundreds of people formed protest groups in New York City to protest “Racism is a Virus” and “Stop Asian Hate” protests.
Analysis：Amanda Rosa wrote this article to make people aware of the seriousness of racial discrimination, not only Asian discrimination but also serious consequences. I learned about the attack cases around the world from her article. When she mentioned that people protested against discrimination through parades, you could feel that people were powerless to resist the terrible cases of discrimination. Although the parades may cause traffic impact in some aspects, they still showed the spirit of the author and people protesting against discrimination.
Response：This article presents many, many horror cases of Asian discrimination, both recent and previous, there has been a steady succession of horror attacks on Asians and so real that terrorist attacks happen around us. Not long ago, I saw through a short video that a black man strangled an Asian man until he suffocated and fainted on the subway floor. This warns us not to go out alone as much as possible, and not to go out alone at night. Even discrimination that is not specific to Asians may be hurt.
MLA： Beth Mirza.”Asian Americans Face Violence, Workplace Discrimination” https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/hr-topics/behavioral-competencies/global-and-cultural-effectiveness/pages/asian-american-workplace-discrimination.aspx March 22, 2021
Summary: The author of this article tells us that six of the eight people killed in the Atlanta spa shooting were Asian women, and the shooter shot them for no reason. It also tells us that because of the influence of novel coronavirus, the crime of discrimination against Asian people in 2020 has increased by 150% compared with that in 2019, and tells us how to prevent ourselves from being harmed by discrimination against Asian people.
Analysis: Beth Mirza wrote this article, exposing the insecurity of workers who contribute to society in the midst of a widespread epidemic of discrimination because the author knows that they may need to earn money to support their families so they take risks to work not only to overcome the epidemic but also to be attacked by the discriminators. The author even shared several ways to prevent discrimination, which left readers heartbroken, and even a few small details could have prevented a discrimination attack.
Response: This article gives me a strange feeling because it is absurd that service personnel who make contributions to society are still discriminated against. And a threat to other people’s personal safety is really ridiculous.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I believe that not only in the United States but all over the world, discrimination is caused by color, religion, culture, race. I want people not to sit back and wait for death, but to rise up and change the prejudice，the world is a family and that if people kill each other, it’s no different than an animal.
