Thanks to the person who just sent a tip on this: Not in West Seattle, but not far, and someone local is making it happen – Seneca Nguyễn, a 10-year-old student from Louisa Boren STEM K-8, has organized a Kids vs Racism rally to show support for the Asian American Pacific Islander community, noon-1 pm at Hing Hay Park (423 Maynard Ave. S.). The event is featured in a long regional list of AAPI-supporting community resources and events published by the South Seattle Emerald.

Be sure to support the local businesses there too. Many were physically damaged over the summer and hurting from the pandemic shutdown. Real lives impacted! Rally to support the community.

Well-attended event today! Loved hearing AAPI community members’ stories and impromptu speeches of support by BIPOC allies. My daughter, my own parents, and I especially appreciated the wise words spoken by a few brave kids who stepped up to the bullhorn! Thank you to the organizing family and their friends. You are inspiring. If you ever want to hold a march here in WS, we will be there!

Sorry, comment time is over.
