President Joe Bide and Vice President Kamala Harris visit Atlanta to meet with Asian American leaders

United States President, Joe Biden, and Vice President Kamala Harris, met with Asian American leaders on Friday in Atlanta, in the wake of a mass shooting that left eight people dead, including six women of Asian descent in Atlanta.

The president decried the hate crimes against the Asian American descents, which has skyrocketed since the covid 19 pandemic began.

He said, “Our silence is complicity, we cannot be complicit. We have to speak out, we have to act”.

In her remarks, Vice President Harris said, racism is real in America, and it has always been. Xenophobia, and sexism is real in America.

The President, and his Vice, originally planned to tour the 1.9 trillion Dollars Covid 19 economic relief package, Biden recently signed into law, but the white house scrapped plans for a rally after the shooting.
