Posted by Dora_Lee6 pts Sunday, March 15, 2020


Amidst the Covid-19 outbreak, racism against the Asian community has alsobecome more widespread. In this video, Korean reporter Lee Gyu Lee talks about the racism Koreans have faced due to the coronavirus and debunk various myths and rumors related to the virus.

Other notable examples of coronavirus related harassment include the attack of Jonathan Mok, who was assaulted by 4 men. As well as a 23-year old woman who was beaten in a New York City subway for wearing a mask.
