❓️Did you know that 25% of individuals experiencing food insecurity are less likely to be vaccinated against COVID-19 despite being at a much higher socioeconomic risk? 💉🦠⁠

📝 In a study conducted amongst adults aged 18-64, those that have experienced food insecurity were much less likely to be vaccinated against COVID-19 or be unsure about the vaccine. ⁠

In order to properly empower and protect our community, we must continue to increase education around the connection of COVID-19 vaccines and food insecurity! ✊⁠

🗓️ KRC's Vaccine Clinic and Food Distribution is 6/29 and open to any and all community members! A $50 grocery gift card will be provided to individuals who choose to get the vaccine. 🎉

❓️Do you know the connection between food insecurity and the COVID-19 vaccine? 🛒💉🦠⁠

KRC's COVID-19 Education Series will go into depth on the multifaceted ways food insecurity and vaccine hesitancy affects our different communities! ⁠

To properly uplift and support our community, we must first tackle these two growing issues that encompass our needs while also spreading awareness on the resources available to all. ✊

❓️Why do vaccinated people still get sick with COVID-19? ⁠

💬 No vaccine is 100% effective at preventing infection, but vaccinated individuals have been proven to experience much less severe side effects to COVID-19 than those unvaccinated! ⁠

As summer quickly approaches, it is now more important than ever to stay up to date on your vaccines, and that means receiving the bivalent COVID-19 vaccine! 💉🦠⁠

KRC will be hosting our Summer COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic on June 29th from 10am-1pm, open to all! Additionally, our doors will be open to those seeking food resources during our food distribution during the clinic's hours! 🛒🥕⁠

Today, April 29th, 2022 marks the 30th anniversary of the 1992 Civil Unrest of Los Angeles.

30 years ago today, we were directly faced with the many racial, economic, and systemic injustices that exist for Black Americans, while also forcing this dialogue between Korean-Americans. The result of the civic unrest called for increased conversations aimed towards racial understanding and solidarity between Korean Americans and the Black Community; as a result, KRC also shifted as an organization.

As we reflect on these events 30 years later, we must continue to understand that our liberation as Korean Americans and immigrants are directly tied to the liberation of Black Americans. Our empowerment is tied, and our work must continue to reflect such.

Yesterday, we gave up our hair to show our commitment to & call on VP Harris to IGNORE THE PARL alongside NAKASEC CASA United We Dream Action FIRM Action Woori Center 우리센터 Woori Juntos 우리 훈또스 MinKwon Center 민권센터 Korean Resource Center 민족학교

Vice President Kamala Harris MUST IGNORE THE PARLIAMENTARIAN ADVICE and pass a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants THIS YEAR.

Suburban Organizer Hwangchan Yu said, “I shaved my head today because I know from my own experience with the broken immigration system that DACA is not enough. We need a pathway to citizenship NOW. The Democrats and Vice President Harris can choose to let their words be empty promises or deliver on their words and pass a pathway to citizenship.”

51+ people shaved their heads to represent the 51 votes needed from Senate Dems and VP Harris to create a pathway to citizenship. 51+ people were willing to shave their heads to win a pathway to citizenship, and thousands more have been fighting for decades. We cannot wait any longer. must act now!

Yesterday was a beautiful and inspirational day for our campaign.

More than 51 people shaved their heads to show their commitment to this movement. We are truly grateful for this community.

Our community has been ignored and silenced for over 3 decades. We are willing to shave our heads if it means we are winning a pathway to citizenship for our community.

Thanks to all the participants from CASA, HANA Center, Woori Center 우리센터, Woori Juntos 우리 훈또스, Korean Resource Center 민족학교, United We Dream and more!

Citizenship for who?! !✊🌕💛

HANA Center and our NAKASEC network partners joined nearly 10k immigrants & allies in Washington D.C., with our drummers leading the way, to and demand they create pathway to citizenship for millions of immigrants!

The Parliamentarian’s ruling on Sunday night was disappointing, yet reminded us that we must keep fighting for our communities as we have been for decades. We are closer now than ever to a pathway to citizenship, and Congress MUST deliver safety and justice to those who have been waiting far too long!

Our community member Min Hee Cho put it best: “History is in the making. We can open up opportunities for more generations to pursue their dreams, to grow and prosper without fear of deportation and family seperation. Anything less than that is an insult to our fight!”

Sending immigrants to ICE facilities. The death penalty. Maximum sentences. These policies never made us safer, so why are police unions funding yet another campaign against immigrants that traffics in disinformation?

LEGENDS GET RINGS

We laughed and talked until 3 AM. We sweated and jumped in the summer air. I looked up at midnight and saw Simu Liu's face five feet tall in the sky over Hollywood Boulevard.

It feels like every moment of calm and community this summer is a gift we’re giving ourselves and our loved ones. Between fire and famine we still find time to crack each other up because they can’t ever take that away from us.

I love seeing my people’s excellence. I love even more seeing our existence. We are heroes whether or not they pay attention. We’re heroes especially when they didn’t pay attention and we still did the damn thing. I firmly believe we’ve never needed to chase their attention - haven’t they always crept to our shores to listen to our lives and learn from our lore?

Thanks to Gold House and CAPE - Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment and Korean Resource Center 민족학교 and the many places that provide campfires and signposts along the journey.

I saw the sun rise over 3 different states this weekend. Two of those nights, I didn’t sleep in a bed.

I met Zoom friends in person and saw old friends get married. I saw a coyote in a cathedral courtyard and ate 台山 food at 2 AM in Chinatown.

Thanks to the friends and partners along the way who gave me room in your hearts and couches. I get to make and share this music only because y’all believe with me.

I don’t know what this year is gonna look like for live music and touring, but I know together we’ll keep the community fed.

All love. I’m going to go sleep now. ❤️

South Korea was the first recipient of the unwanted Chinese export, the coronavirus. Yet, the country succeeded in stopping the pandemic in its tracks while countries who had advance warning failed. Why?

What can presidents and government ministers, hospitals and nursing homes, schools and businesses, you and your family learn from the science and experience, the speed and street smarts of the South Korean people?

This book gives clear and straightforward answers and solutions. Well-documented and illustrated with many personal stories and photographs, it is not just a record of the South Korean success story but also a manual on practical pandemic management for everyone.
