Denny Kim, pic (left) from yesterday, wks after 2 men broke his nose & beat him in LA Koreatown. "They called me chink, said 'You have the Chinese virus' and 'Go back to China.'" Kim didn't report initially bc he was afraid. Encouraged by others, he's got something to say (more)
Kim, like many AAPI's, has heard all these racial slurs before but ignored them. He now says "silence leads to violence" and Asian-Americans need to speak out and defend one another by being visible. #StopAAPIHate
Denny Kim shared this pic with me. He says he served in the US Air Force, serving his full service time for his country. Even in the military, Kim says he was called horrific racial slurs. He said nothing then, just focusing on doing his duty

I’m at the @Perduesenate @KLoeffler rally. No one has announced yet Sen Perdue is quarantined. Here’s a look at the crowd, yes outdoors, but few masks present. #gasenaterunoffs
Here’s @Perduesenate 2 days ago at an indoor event in Forsyth, GA. @DJJudd shot these pictures. We don’t know when the contact with the #COVID19 positive person on the campaign was. But Perdue and those around him were indoors, not wearing masks
Onstage now, @KLoeffler without @Perduesenate. She’s delivering her stump speech— there’s been no announcement from her or anyone else about Perdue not showing up bc of #COVID19 exposure

.@GaSecofState Raffensperger says results of audit of voter signatures of absentee ballot envelopes in Cobb County show “no fraudulent absentee ballots,” and found that the Cobb Co Elections Dept had “99.9% accuracy rate in performing correct signature verification procedures”
Of 15,118 randomly selected ballot envelopes examined by GBI investigators, only 2 signatures were identified as a problem— a wife who signed her name to both her and her husband’s envelopes
“In this case, three strikes against the voter fraud claims and they’re out,” said @GaSecofState Brad Raffensperger

A thread about keeping a foreign name in America: I'm not crazy about my name, Kyung. It's a pain in the a** & I have to spell it repeatedly... daily. FYI, it's pronounced 'Young with a K', not Kee-Young, not Kwang, not Koong, though I will answer to anything close (more)
My father, who dropped his Korean name for "John" as a Chicago shopkeeper, urged me in the 2nd grade to change my name as we registered for school. We argued over the name "Lucy" because I loved the Peanuts. But I couldn't fathom being called something different so I refused.
I regretted it. This jerk in the 5th grade called me Egg Foo Young for the entire year. I still bring it up!

Worst economy in history, says Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. "We are going to see economic data for the second quarter that is worse than any data we have seen for the economy," Powell said #coronavirus #economy
#Economy could begin to bounce back significantly in 3Q as businesses reopen, says Fed Chair Powell, adding while we won't go back to pre-#coronavirus levels for quite some time, 3Q could provide some economic relief.
Powell also noted that unemployment shot higher for people of color -- much faster than it has for white Americans. Just a few months ago, the US labor market was the best-ever for #POC, Powell noted. Now, minorities are among the first to lose their jobs.
