• Oung notes that other pandemics have sparked xenophobia. What do those responses suggest about the way people respond in times of crisis?

• How is racism similar to virus? How is it different? What would you recommend people do to stop the spread of anti-Chinese racism?

If you overhear (or see them online) anti-Chinese comments in response to the Coronavirus, what is your responsibility to respond?

What are some possible ways you might intervene in response to anti-Chinese comments directly? What are the ways you can respond indirectly?

How is Oung’s story a form of anti-racist action? What impact can she have by telling her story to friends, teachers, and other adults?

What impact might she be able to have by sharing her story in the New York Times?
