## Caption

#StopAsianHate The Asian community is under attack. Recently, an 84-year old grandpa was attacked while taking his morning walk in SF. He died from his injuries. He's not the only one - hate crimes against Asians have risen 1900% and devastatingly, many of them are violent attacks against elders. We must do better. Advocacy starts with all of us. We can't fight what we can't see, and we can't do this alone - please help us spread the word. 

If you see something, or something happens to you, report the incident. You can report it at stopaapihate or if it's an emergency, call 911. If you see something as it happens, please step in to help the victim or call over others to do so. Too often, videos show bystanders just watching. Unacceptable. We can do better.

Edit: for the comments asking why they can't see the video. This is a screenshot of a trigger warning, it isn't an actual video. Instead, hidden words tags show up when you tap (if it's not working on your phone: the words are "Stop. Speak up whenever you see violence") My hope is that the unexpected nature of this post will get people to stop scrolling in their feeds, if even for a brief moment, to read our message

👉 How to repost this
Take a screenshot of this image without tags, then post it as a photo and use the "tag people" feature to create the hidden message. 

I was inspired to make this after seeing the work of hok and pablo.rochat. I recently saw this tag concept on their pages and thought it would be interesting to adapt it to be a PSA for Stop Asian Hate, Black Lives Matter, and all causes calling for a stop to violence.
