The COVID-19 pandemic that swept through the world laid bare the deeply rooted anti-Asian racism in North America and made it particularly visible in hate attacks and the inequalities in the provision of health care, public services, and vaccine access. Importantly, though less noted, even before the pandemic the worsening geopolitical tensions centred around the China-US rivalry have already fueled the Sinophobia mentality since the 2008 financial crisis. These served as a reminder that W.E.B. Du Bois’s famous line, “the problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color line,” still stands today in the twenty first century, thereby debunking the myth of ‘post-raciality’ that was widely spread especially after the election of the former American president Barack Obama.
