These 10 Asian Vegans Will Elevate Your Feed

Anti-Asian hate crimes are skyrocketing. Earlier this year, eight people were killed in a shooting rampage that targeted three Asian spas across Atlanta. Unfortunately, there are countless horrific examples of violent attacks on the Asian community, even more so since the pandemic. 

This is a critical time in which support and solidarity are urgently needed. This can mean buying products from Asian-owned brands, eating at local Asian-owned restaurants, following Asian content creators and influencers and doing much more to support the Asian community. 

We’ve put together a list of Asian vegans whose content will fascinate, educate and inspire you.
