#  Statement on Anti-Asian Discrimination, Racism, and Violence 

 





April 08, 2021

 

 

 The Korea Institute, alongside Harvard’s Asia-related departments, institutes, and centers, stands in solidarity with the Asian and AAPI communities in condemning violence and harassment wherever they are taking place. Sadly, these recent incidents are part of a long history of scapegoating and discrimination against foreign and immigrant communities. As such, we denounce them along with other racial injustices wherever and whenever they occur.  
  
The Korea Institute reaffirms its [unambiguous commitment](/statement-harassment-discrimination) to the policy and practice of zero tolerance of discrimination and harassment based on gender, race, ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation.  
  
For those seeking information and support surrounding Anti-Asian racism and other issues, the Harvard Asia-related institutes and departments have created the following list of resources:
