Sandra Oh Speaks out
Against Anti-Asian Hate
in Impassioned Speech.
On Saturday, Sandra Oh made a surprise
appearance at a Stop Asian Hate rally in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
She is currently in the city filming her
new Netflix series, ’The Chair.’.
In a brief but impassioned speech, Oh encouraged
the crowd to “reach out to [their] community.” .
For many of us in our community,
this is the first time we are even able
to voice our fear and our anger … And
one way to go through our fear is to
reach out to our community, Sandra Oh, via Huffpost.
Oh then “challeng[ed]” everyone to stand
together and offer “help” when necessary. .
If you see something, will you help
me? If you see one of our sisters and
brothers in need, will you help us? …
We must understand, as Asian
Americans, we just need to reach out
our hand to our sisters and brothers
and say, ‘Help me and I’m here.’, Sandra Oh, via Huffpost.
She concluded her speech by proclaiming
she was “proud to be Asian” and encouraged
the crowd to do the same. .
I am proud to be Asian! I belong
here! … Many of us don’t get that
chance to be able to say that, so
I just wanted to give us an opportunity
to be able to shout that, Sandra Oh, via Huffpost
