'Most bullying is subtle,' Huang said. 'Not loud enough that it's concerning for teachers to take notice. But enough for students to carry it for themselves for the rest of their adolescence and onwards.'
“I’ve been a target of micro-aggressions from fellow students at schools and on occasions from teachers,” Chou said. “I know that my experience is not unique and thousands of other AAPI students in New York City have the same treatment. School staff are unable to recognize and respond to these micro-aggressions.”
“The focus on safety should not mean students are punished for wrongdoing,” Chou said. “We hope the city places a priority on education, restorative justice, and healing.” But microaggressions can still lead to students feeling displaced and unsafe at their own schools, said Sandra Lu, a senior at Brooklyn Technical High School. She added that the definition of bullying has traditionally placed emphasis on physical violence, and left out emotional and verbal bullying, which can become commonplace microaggressions.
“Most of the time, microaggressions stem from a gap in knowledge about various cultures or assumptions and stereotypes,” Lu said. “Because microaggressions may be unintentional and are common, they can be hard to detect.”
