we have asian pacific islanders who themselves are afraid for their safety. they're afraid for the safety of their parents and grandparents and they are coming to work and taking care of other people and they are coming to work and taking care of those people in their own community who are afraid in the same way and their fear is legitimate. it's not unfounded. it is entirely possible. so that service of speaking for staff that this is an issue that impacts them and is important enough that we should all be paying attention to i think is a really important one. we've been trying to do that to some degree. we have forums from staff to speak to each other and i think that was really useful to people. there were three other people there, but we hit the limit, but i do think that more formal and elevated pronouncements have an impact in telling people that what they're experiencing is important. the other thing i want to be sure about is that we look at this as yet another example in which we all have experiences of pain and persecution that should lead us to the

and actually, pacific islanders are not impacted in the same way. but japanese, chinese, korean, as well as vietnamese, la otian and burmese, we have reports from all those communities. we have reports from all 50 states. that is important to be aware of. what is absolutely correct is that the degree with which it is gender-based is significant. 70% of the attacks against women. so if you're thinking of resources within your community, you should be targeting and making sure there are gender-based resources. and i want to make sure again, to be centered around the victims, what wraparound services do you have for the victims, because for our community, accountability of the attacker is relevant but not critical, frankly. what we are more concerned about is, how are you providing services to that victim? if you are in a school, what sort of high school counselor is to talk to that student? what a person will talk to the family of that student about what happened to help that process at all? those are the types of things we need to lean in on. >>, i a

he has, my father is danish and english but my mother is a pacific islander. ian from the island and samoa, so that is what you see. so when i came into office 26 years ago, in burnsville, there were only 8 percent in order, 8 percent minority we are now, i'm waiting for the next census but our demographics in burnsville is probably about 30 - 40 percent minority. very integrated. very international in its makeup. so these are the things that i think really makes for great and healthy community and the things we do not only with our communities because we have an interface, we have three mosques in our community. so we are very interactive with all of them. but one of the things that is going on as we can to new to look, one of very lutheran churches has put together a task force for inclusion. and what was interesting and what they had shared with me is the makeup as a whole group, was all outpatient. all whites, one asian american. and becky told her story of what it was like to be in our community enemy in this task force and feel like that she was invisible

there are about 23 million asian american and pacific islanders in the united states constituting 7% of the population of our country. there are approximately two million asian american-owned businesses that generate over $700 billion in annual revenues and employ millions of workers. two million asian americans and pacific islanders are working on the front lines of the covid-19 pandemic as first responders and in health care, law enforcement, transportation, supermarkets and other service industries. our asian american brothers and sisters are putting their lives on the line every day to help protect our communities during the pandemic. that is why it's so despicable to see the rise of anti-asian rhetoric and hate speech by political leaders and others which gives exjon to extremist groups and individuals. it gives license to individuals who commit hate crimes and acts of violence. the use of anty-asian terminology and rhetoric related to covid-19 such as the chinese virus, wuhan virus, kong flu, phrases used often by former president trump and his followers have perpetrated anti-a
