Illustration Québec - Frey - #AsiansAreNotTheVirus

Description

As the COVID-19 wave hits the World for the first time in the Spring of 2020, a flow of hatred towards populations of Asian origin appears, like a second virus infecting populations. A campaign to denounce hate, violence and agression against Asian people is emerging in response to this brutality.

"In response to the global increase in racism stemming from the new coronavirus pandemic, 60+ artists from Canada and France have joined forces. Using their pencils, they collectively denounce xenophobia and show their solidarity with Asian communities through their drawings

We believe that acting collectively will allow us to respond intelligently to the challenges facing our society. We reject and oppose the scapegoating of any marginalized community, regardless of its cultural designation."

Initiated by: Ravy Puth, Chinese-Cambodian illustrator
