[quote=Anonymous]Op here - some of the earlier comments got removed. What happened?

Also, yes, here is an article titled: This is what no one tells you about being Asian in America in 2021.

With COVID, Asian people in the US are subjected to different kind of discrimination and hate crimes - in Fairfax, minority-owned businesses were burglarized - not sure if this was an anti-Asian thing or something else, but the trend is not a positive one.

Someone earlier said that my white American husband walking around with a lawyer on his speed dial doesn't sit well with the community. Well, neither does spitting on an Asian person or inflicting micro (or macro) aggressions towards them...it is difficult; we can't shield our kids from EVERYTHING, but we do want to spare them some really horrible things, and be prepared to "fight" if something horrible happens and nobody does anything about it, as our prior experience at a different school in another state.
