An elderly woman who was assaulted in San Francisco last week was able to fight off her attacker. And now she's fighting against anti-Asian racism.
In a recent update posted to the crowdfunding page for the victim, Xie's family said she intends on donating all the funds back to the Asian American community to combat racism.
"She said we must not [submit] to racism and we must fight to the death if necessary. She also stated multiple times to donate all the funds generated in this GoFundMe back to the Asian American community to combat racism," her grandson John Chen wrote in an update Monday on the fundraising page. "She insists on making this decision saying this issue is bigger than [h]er."
Xie sustained two black eyes and a swollen wrist, and has been impacted mentally and emotionally by the attack, Chen wrote.
