I think you missed the past few decades of South Asian students speaking out about racial injustice, post 9/11 bias, Hindutva, and more. To cast such a wide net and scold South Asian young people is messed up.
South Asian student associations at Ivy League universities ought to be about samosas and Bollywood screenings. Something has gone profoundly wrong if they’re instead associated with assaulting Jewish students on campus and writing letters that blame Israel for Hamas atrocities.
it is the epitome of western privilege to tweet or write essays debating slogans, demanding condemnations, and parsing over the legal definition of genocide. These are all distractions. The number of people killed in Gaza by the Israeli military is nearing the 9,000 mark.

What is astonishing is that so many different people & institutions are sharing concerns, from IG influencers to school superintendents to exec leaders. And how 8/10 times, these statements don't even mention the impact on Palestinian lives. Erasure = Dehumanization.
As Asian Americans, we come from homelands that have been colonized, brutalized, led movements for liberation, and still struggle under Western imperialism.

❓And, WHY was it created? South Asians DESERVE access to knowledge and information that is relatable, accessible, and celebratory of their bodies and cultures. Our hope is that the ACG can fill critical gaps in access AND inspire dialogue about abortions within our diaspora.
STAY TUNED: Abortion Care Guide for and by South Asian Americans, soon to be available in 20 South Asian languages:
