“Hate in America, especially for African-Americans, is living every day…No matter how much money you have, no matter how famous you are, no matter how many people admire you, being black in America is tough. And we got a long way to go for us as a society and for us as African-Americans until we feel equal in America.”
Thank you, LeBron James, for using your platform to speak out against hate.

"After [I yelled back at the man who told us to go back to our country], the four of us were in shock. You could say it killed the mood of the evening, so we said goodbye and went home. Later in the evening, though, one of my friends texted, thanking me for standing up for us all and saying something — and I realized I was proud of myself. The man who had told me to go back to my country clearly wasn’t bold enough to own up to what he said, but what if I had said nothing? He would have thought that he’d gotten away with it, and maybe he would have felt safer in that behavior. Maybe by speaking up, I helped stop him from doing this to other people.
But, mostly, I felt sad. In my more than 20 years living in New York City, this was only the second time I’d experienced such direct, in-my-face racism. I feel less safe now. I look over my shoulder a little bit more. Mostly, though, I think about minorities who live in other parts of the country that are less diverse than New York City. The fact that hate happens here says to me that, in other areas of the country, minorities and immigrants must be very badly subjected to these kinds of abusive, racist comments — and worse.
I’m sharing this story so that other women, minorities, and immigrants know that this is our country, too. We owe it to ourselves and to each other to call out and report hate when it happens — and when people tell us that we should go back to our country, we should tell them that this is our country and we’re not going anywhere.”

“I was born in Vietnam. My family left with the wave of “boat people” after the end of the Vietnam War. After spending a year at a refugee camp in the Philippines, we moved to Spokane, Washington thanks to a sponsorship from the Lutheran Church there.
The specifics of that experience have faded from my memory as I’ve gotten older, but it will forever be a part of who I am. As a refugee who got to grow up, go to school, move to New York City, and build a career, I have never taken this country for granted. It’s my home.” – Bich Ha Pham, who recently reported a hate incident she experienced.

“Hate has no place in America. Hate has no place on a college campus where young minds are coming together to try to change the world. They can’t change the world if they are not here.” –Artie L. Travis, VP for student affairs at Bowie State University

“Not long ago, I was saying goodbye to a group of friends in Penn Station after a night out celebrating one of our birthdays. Three of the four of us are of Asian descent and, as we were saying our last “happy birthdays” to the birthday girl, a man said “Yeah, yeah, happy birthday. Go back to your country!” as he walked past.
To tell the truth, I normally wouldn’t have said anything, simply out of shock. Living in New York City, in one of the most diverse communities in the country, I often feel like this kind of hateful behavior is worlds away. But, because of the kind of rhetoric that bubbled to the surface during last year’s election and all the news about increases in attacks against immigrants and people of color, my guard was up.
And, so I spoke up and got loud. With all the air in my lungs, I yelled, “WHAT DID YOU SAY??!”
When he didn’t stop, I repeated myself, even louder. He turned around then, but not to apologize or admit to what he did. He claimed that he hadn’t said a thing — a pretty obvious lie given that, with his back to us as he walked away, he still knew that it was him I was yelling at.” – Bich Ha Pham, New York City.
