LA vs Hate to Unveil Anti-Hate Artwork by Asian American Artist
On May 27th, LA County Board of Supervisors Chair Hilda Solis (First District Supervisor) joined the LA County Human Relations Commission, anti-hate activists, and community organizations to unveil a large public art piece. This 10x20 foot graphic novel, designed by renowned local artist Mari Naomi, depicts the history and many contributions of the AAPI community to LA County, the contemporary targeting of AAPI residents due to COVID-related backlash, the journey from hate to healing, and the need for advocacy to ensure solidarity and inclusion for all.
