Can we talk about the rise of hate crimes in AAPI community? My heart is heavy as we celebrate Lunar New Year this year.

Are you guys all speaking up about it in your circles? I found that when I spoke up and informed people, my friends have shown up for me and are reposting, signing the change petition, and some have volunteered to escort/walk around Chinatown leading up to LNY. I was initially angry that no one was speaking up except me but found that they just didn’t know because they’re not Asian and aren’t following Asian sites. But now that they are aware (and believe me it’s another thing we spoke about that they didn’t even think to seek to educate themselves on Asian matters), I have so many friends following and learning about it from Dion Lim, Nextshark, and so many other sites that I’m feeling a little hopeful. Is it performative? Possibly, but right now just being made aware of the plight is at least a step in the right direction.

it's hard not to be cynical given how skewed media is in either direction and reality is there only seems to be so much attention/bandwidth available so BLM is at forefront (which is sadly 100% necessary) but as usual- AA topics shoved to bottom of the list

Hi Fishes,

I got email from LTI "Thank you for applying to LTIMindtree and going through our complete selection process" on 27 Sept but after 1 week I follow up on offer letter she said my approval got rejected due high expectation (35% hike ). We re-negotiate at 6 Sept (30% hike). Now they will release offer letter or not ?

Are there any Deloitte penetration testers or managers over the Pentesting team in here? I found a role and I was trying to connect to the right person to help increase my chances of getting viewed for the role and be the lucky winner. Feel free to DM me, I am also prior Deloitte in the Cyber GPS offering. Deloitte
