Dozens rally Saturday at Texas Capitol to denounce hate, attacks against Asian community
Dozens of people met at the Capitol on Saturday to decry anti-Asian racism and to highlight the tragedy of the Atlanta-area spa shootings as well as the rise of hate incidents against people of Asian descent amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The event, held at the Texas African American History Memorial on the south lawn of the Capitol, coincided with a news conference nearby attended by relatives of George Floyd and Black activists, who called on state lawmakers to pass the police reform bill named after Floyd, a former Houstonian.
