Attacked herself on the subway last year, Carolyn Kang would put on a hat and sunglasses to get groceries, hoping that concealing her identity would protect her from the violent anti-Asian attacks she'd been watching escalate on the news. The result is a campaign to give free personal safety alarms to Asian Americans in New York City.
Requests for the alarms poured in by the hundreds — from victims of subway attacks afraid to go out by themselves, to adult children getting the alarms for their elderly parents, to students looking to feel safer on their commute home from school, and nurses on the frontlines of the pandemic afraid of being attacked. The more than 300 requests have been so much that Kang has since run out of funds to fulfill them and is hoping to raise more donations.
