On March 27th 2021, Maggie Yan from the Bergen AYLUS branch participated in a rally to Stop Asian Hate. This rally also included a march in which over 750 people showed up to rally and march. The rally was held at Hudson Lights in Fort Lee and started at approximately 2pm; then the people marched all around Fort Lee while chanting “Hate is a virus!” and “Stop Asian Hate!”. It was amazing to see so many people standing in solidarity with the Asian community.
Maggie’s rally sign was also featured in a NorthJersey.com news article as a part of the photo gallery that was included in the article. Link to said news article: https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/2021/03/27/fort-lee-nj-asian-americans-hold-rally-wake-mass-shooting-atlanta/7013026002/
