Our Koreatown Storytelling Program (KSP) attended a senior self-defense seminar hosted by @seniorsfightback at the Angelus Plaza on August 5, 2021. Due to the recent rise in hate crimes targeting Asian Americans, elderly Asian Americans in particular, have been living in fear and terrified to go out. To better equip seniors against unprovoked attacks, the self-defense workshop taught basic skills like situational awareness, using their voice, and finding space to escape. Over 100 older adults attended this seminar at Angelus Plaza, the largest subsidized community for low-income seniors in the U.S.
