There were shockwaves across the world after eight people were reported dead in a mass shootout that took place in Atlanta on Tuesday, where a majority of Asians resided.
Celebrities LeBron James, Florence Pugh, Roxanne Gay and Winston Duke took to social media to condemn the cowardly attack, and called out for support for Asian communities living in the US. “This is deeply sad. Trump on Fox Tonight referred to COVID-19 using the racist slur ‘China virus’. He previously called it the ‘Kung Flu’. While he continues to spread hatred against Asian Americans, people like this shooter are listening,” model-actor Padma Lakshmi wrote on Twitter.
