We are all Chinese
I woke up with this post in my brain today. I woke up with my mind filled with this idea.
Right now in the USA some people are attacking Chinese people and also people who They think are Chinese!
They are angry because they are blaming the Chinese for this disease. This made me pause and think; is this the way we want our species to end, fighting each other?
First of all...
Every Chinese person on the earth is not responsible for the things that some people in Wuhan, China did!
Ask yourself is every a German in the world responsible for the Jewish Holocaust?
Is every European responsible for African Slavery?
Is every person of any ethnic group you can name and any tragedy you can remember committed by them responsible?
We need to have some common sense!
Second of all...
We need to work together against this disease.
We need to focus on the things we have in common, like our desires to eradicate this disease and control its spread.
We need to focus on sharing our science, our statistics and our our experiences as we work together to defeat this new virus, which is the enemy of all of us humans on earth. We shouldn’t focus on the things which divide us, that doesn’t make us stronger, it weakens us and will help lead to the collapse of our civilization.
Third of all and most important...
We are all humans here on earth.
No matter what language we speak, no matter what Gods we worship, no matter where we were born on this earth.
We are one species...humans. We don’t always see ourselves as one species, but I hope this virus has opened our eyes and opened our minds. This virus has revealed what we don’t always see...we are all humans and a common enemy which hunts and kills humans should awaken us to this fact. We are all Humans and it’s time we started acting like we are as smart as a virus, which has no eyes or ears, but it knows we are all humans.
In Hawaii we have a term called Ohana. It means Family.
We recognize that we have our small families, but we also know we are members of a larger family called our Community.
We refer to our individual families as “our ohana” but we refer to our Community as “Our Ohana”.
It’s time for the world to realize, that while we all have our own countries, our “country ohana”, we are all members of the World Community, the “World Ohana”.
We are all Humans.

Hi,
I am upset at those Chinese people in Wuhan, who started this mess, but I see your point. If people are attacking Chinese people on the street that’s just stupid and not American at All. I may not agree with stuff people say, but I am willing to defend their right to say it. I mean life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I mean this is ridiculous to attack any Asian because their Asian. I have been attacked by people before because of my race before and it was a wake up call. I read about prejudice, but you don’t really understand how it makes you feel until it happens to you. It’s scary...it’s like your not human. I will never forget how it made me feel. I hope they stop doing it because it’s not right.
I understand why people are upset, but I am glad you agree that random violence is not the solution to our problems. Stay healthy🙏
Why? It's even not clear who exactly made a mistake, and of course not the majority of the people living in Wuhan.
totally agree with you, human should treat each other with kindness not hatred. I saw outside real world and on social media, negativity is at ATH racism and all. In time like this we all should unite and spread more LOVE. Hope you and family are fine and stay safe from the harm.
Thank you. We are healthy and safe for now.
How are you and your family?
we are doing good too 🙂
Thank you for writing this article. It’s not just Chinese. Some people are so stupid they are attacking Any Asians!
We are all humans and blaming doesn’t help.
Thank you for your humanity!
I will spread this post and make you the Beneficiary!
I don’t want the money. I want to spread your thinking!
