In this guide you will find just a few examples of resources, news, events, histories, and library resources on the topic of Asian, Asian American and Pacific Islander racism in the United States.

You will also find resources if you need help discussing or reporting experiences with anti-Asian, and anti-AAPI aggression.

 
A statement of support from the TCC Library

The TCC library condemns anti-Asian and anti-Asian American/Pacific Islander violence and rhetoric. We stand by our staff, students, and faculty who identify as Asian, Asian American, and/or Pacific Islander and will not tolerate instances of hate and violence whether within Library spaces or across our wider campus community. We remind everyone that your TCC Library has extensive information resources to help better understand and combat anti-Asian, and anti-AAPI activities.
