Voices Against Anti-Asian Hate Screening and Dicussion
6 – 8:30PM
Please join the Asian American / Asian Research Institute for a screening and discussion of the short documentary, Voices Against Anti-Asian Hate, on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, from 6pm to 8:30pm. RSVP is required.
This event is organized by the Coalition for Asian Pacific Americans (CAPA), in partnership with the Asian American Bar Association of New York (AABANY) and the Asian American Law Fund of New York (AALFNY), and hosted by the Philippine Consulate General. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion on key issues surrounding hate crimes and anti-Asian bias, and a reception.
Voices Against Anti-Asian Hate serves as both a record of tragedy and a testament to resilience, capturing the profound pain and fear experienced by victims and survivors of hate crimes. The film features deeply personal accounts from those directly impacted by high-profile attacks in New York, including:
Justin Go, father of Michelle Go
Sungkon Lee, father of Christina Yuna Lee
Noel Quintana, who survived a brutal face-slashing on the subway
Beyond documenting these stories, the film highlights the vital work of the Hate Eradication Active Response Team (HEART) and advoates who fight for justice and provide legal assistance to survivors. It is designed as an educational tool for community groups and DEI programs to foster discussion and confront systemic prejudice.
