In addition to what Avvy said just now, I think that what we see currently is that social media has become such a powerful and dangerous tool. With the new coronavirus coming out, social media has become a platform that has allowed racism to be more overt, whereas a lot of the ideas these people have had in mind have been more covert racist kind of ideas. They use this unknown time to fuel moral panic, and now we see that social media becomes that platform. Ongoing anti-racism funding to support the work and organizations that have already been doing work on anti-racism also needs to happen.
