I wonder if the kids who pulled their eyes at me and mercilessly yelled "ching chong" at me on the bus even remember doing it. The two worst offenders are both parents now. I wonder what they teach their children.
I feel ill today. #StopAAPIHate #StopAsianHateCrimes

I decided today was the day to start a dialogue. I cold messaged someone who hurt me more than 20 years ago. We had a beautiful conversation, slightly redacted to protect his identity.

I'm further determined not to give up on people, even on a dark day like this. Open your hearts, and remember that, in the best of cases, accountability and grace go hand-in-hand. #StopAAPIHate
