Rallying Against Racism: San Francisco Chinatown Banner

Taking part in a long tradition of Asian American and Pacific Islander activism, members of San Francisco’s Chinatown organized a 1,000-person rally and march 11 days before the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 virus a global pandemic. This is their story. Leading the rally was an 11-feet wide by four-feet-high banner that reads: “Fight the Virus, NOT the people.” The banner was donated by the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association of San Francisco, California on May 10, 2022. 🔍 For more information visit: https://americanhistory.si.edu/more-about-san-francisco-chinatown-banner
