The Yellow Whistle Project

The Yellow Whistle™ Project

Picture
APA Justice fully supports and is a partner with The Yellow Whistle Project, which officially launched on April 19, Patriots Day. The project was started by Dr. Agnes Hsu-Tang and her husband Oscar Tang, Li-En Chong, Ken Tan, Anne Martin-Montgomery, and Cassandra X Montgomery in response to the anti-Asian hate and violence. 

In nature, yellow signals the advent of spring, bringing hope, optimism, and enlightenment.  In America, yellow has been weaponized against Asians as the color of xenophobia.

The whistle is a symbol of self-protection and solidarity in our common fight against historical discrimination, anti-Asian violence, and racial profiling.  It has a universal purpose - to signal alarm and call for help - for all Americans.  We are whistleblowing to fight back against the stereotype that Asians are a silent minority.  We shall not remain silent, because we belong!

Free whistles are being distributed through a network of outreach partners in New York City and throughout the continental U.S.  Priority will be given to 501(C)3 organizations with demonstrated strong community ties.  Distribution is managed by regional hubs, including APA Justice.  The supply of whistles has been increased from 100,000 to 200,000 and now 500,000.  

The campaign is turning into a movement and a platform beyond the Asian American and Pacific Islander community.  On September 5, 2021, Axios reported on 
How the yellow whistle became a symbol against anti-Asian hate
