We take offense to the article "China Is the Real Sick Man of Asia" written by Walter Russell Mead and published on WSJ on Feb 3, 2020. Regardless of the author's view on China's problems, the title alone stokes racism against the Chinese people. That such a racially discriminatory title was allowed on WSJ indicates arrogance and poor judgment in WSJ's editing choices. Such reckless comments against innocent Chinese citizens will only encourage racism and incur repercussions against Chinese or other Asian ethnicities. Our demands include a proper apology from WSJ to the Chinese community and either a retraction of the article or a rectification of the title. Racism cannot be tolerated.
We the people ask the federal government to Take or explain a position on an issue or policy:
