#StopAAPIHate

By: The BellaVita Family

#StopAAPIHate is a movement to amplify AAPI voices and it’s about time. 

The threat of violence is the gut feeling worst-case scenario that instinctively makes us move cautiously at all times - to be vocal but not too vocal, to have ideas but not attract too much attention, and to be silently boxed. We are always looking over our shoulders, no matter the day, time, and place. It has gone to an extent in doing whatever we can to cover up who we truly are by wearing masks, sunglasses, and caps.  

As a proud Asian-American female owned small business, this deeply impacts our team and community. We stand together, as one, for everyone who has been targeted as victims of injustice and racism. We aim to create a community and environment where racism is completely rejected to uplift and support our diverse identities. For us to make a change, we need to start educating ourselves.
