Block the Hate Rally presented by Compassion in SGV is the most anticipated AAPI Heritage Month event of the San Gabriel Valley. Part rally and part block party, join us as we come together in solidarity for Stop Asian Hate and to celebrate AAPI Heritage Month!
We will feature various speakers – from community leaders to AAPI leaders of our generation, and include a celebratory energy with lion dancers, music, food vendors, and special guests.
