<aside> ❤️ GoldenDAO is a highly engaged, collaborative, and impact-focused community. Our mission is to launch a DAO to collectively advance AAPI solidarity and empowerment through real-world events + gatherings, and web3 infrastructure + initiatives. Community values are hinged upon supporting the Asian community through but not limited to:
</aside>
Many members of the AAPI community have been facing injustices on different levels. Hate crimes against Asian Americans are more prominent than ever before. Microaggressions in interactions where terms used such as ‘Kung flu’, ‘China virus’, and ‘go back to your country’ directed at US Asians have been normalized in numerous settings - even earlier this year, a Texas Republican candidate for the House of Representatives called for a ban on Chinese students from all Texas universities.
The Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism revealed that anti-Asian hate crimes increased by 4x last year. The figure on the right depicts this and showcases the rise in hate crime in cities across the U.S.
Despite the clear rise in physical violence against Asians, numerous instances are not reported and many altercations are not legally classified as hate crimes (see ABC article). When integrating web3 technology and a DAO infrastructure, members hold the power to vote, collaborate and decide where funds are directed. GoldenDAO’s goal is to bring together a diverse community to stand against racism and hate and promote inclusivity across the blockchain ecosystem, funding selected AAPI justice projects.
