Dear all,听

We鈥檙e saddened听by the recent attack in Atlanta听that killed听eight听people, six of听whom听were听Asian听or Asian American women.听Since the beginning of the pandemic,听Asian Americans听and Pacific Islanders in the U.S. have听faced听a rise in harassment and violence.听We want to show our solidarity and compassion to the families of the victims:听听

• Xiaojie Tan, 49听听
• Daoyou Feng, 44听听
• Hyun Jung Grant, 51听听
• Suncha Kim, 69听听
• Soon Chung Park, 74听听
• Yong Ae Yue, 63听听
• Elcias听Hernandez-Ortiz, 30听听
• Delaina Ashley Yaun, 33听听

We hope the AUP community will听join听us in mourning their lives.听Journalists on the ground are still gathering information about the attacks. For now, we encourage reflection on how race, gender, labor, migration, empire, and wartime legacies may shape the circumstances of the shooting.听

While this attack occurred in the US last week, we also听reflect on听the听Asian communities听here in France since the beginning of the听pandemic.听We听know听that听some of you听have faced this听prejudice听while living here. Faculty, staff, and students have told us that they鈥檝e been spat on听or听told to go听back 鈥渉ome.鈥澨齏e want you to know that we鈥檙e here for you.听

We can provide some initial resources to enrich conversations and advocate for Asian and Asian-American lives in the United States and France. Feel free to reach out to us at diversitycouncilaup.edu or during our .

To the Asian and Asian听American听members of our community, we stand in solidarity with you and extend our support. To all, please do not hesitate to reach out to us; we鈥檙e here to talk, listen, and think through forms of action we can take together. We continue our dedication to make AUP an inclusive space for all and听encourage all to engage in healthy dialogue.听

In solidarity,听
