Racist Ads Call For Deporting Asian-American School Board Candidates In New Jersey

Summary: 
In New Jersey's town called Evens there has been a sign of racism against asians and immigrants. The example this article brings to it's readers is the bullying of Jerry Shi and Falguni for being asians. They put their pictures on cards saying "deport" and Make Edison great again. Patel says, "I’m obviously disgusted by it, to say the least,-I didn’t expect anything like that. We live in a such diverse town, it’s very shocking somebody would put that in writing." Shi, and Falguni both condemn the actions of the racist who plastered their faces on the cards. Beside this incident there has been much more racism towards asians, this is a problem since 37% of Edison are Asians. Since the 2016 election Salt has reported 190 incidents of violence caused by hate.

Analysis:
This article may be a bit bias because they don't mention any quotes or thoughts from the people the bluntly call racist all throughout the article, the writter, Kimberly Yam, of this article does happen to be Asian, but, that does't automatically make her a bias writer, I simply don't know. I think that this is similar to when America had concentration camps for the Japanese after WW11. The thoughts of Asians and immigrants have definitely  become worser sine our new President's election. I hope this doesn't continue but, I know this will probably only worsen considering the fact of a recent rise of being openly  racist.
