In SAX Global
SAX Global is an international network of SAX charters in the United States and overseas. At this moment, we have established liaisons with 25+ student leaders in 15+ states and 5+ foreign locations. They joined SAX Global voluntarily and eagerly to promote awareness against this powerful form of bigotry called xenophobia. SAX Global charters receive help, advice, and guidance from SAX Global and guarantee to abide by our founding principles of being 100% legal, non-partisan, and unbiased. Charters will not receive accreditation if they are found to stray away from these founding principles. We are very fortunate to see half of these student leaders already obtaining faculty advisory support and in the process of launching their individual charters. SAX Hopkins, founded in 2018 as the first high school xenophobia awareness club in the US, is very proud to share our experiences in achieving greater awareness and promoting this common good. Please feel free to ask any questions and express any suggestions in accordance with our principles. Thank you!

In Cognitive Bigotry
Everyone agrees that babies don't see colors, races, or religions. They are born with the most innocent hearts to love all lives and express their emotions without any hesitation. So, are there cases where we are already genetically coded to be bigots towards certain stereotypes in our world?

In What is xenophobia to me?
We can read almost every week in the news that violence in South Africa (color-blind, race-blind, religion-blind) has swallowed communities across the nation and created large chasms among members of the African Union. At the same time, rioters in Hong Kong are pushing for independence and openly beating up mainland Chinese in broad daylight. I know, in America, there is talk of xenophobia, but luckily we are not faced with this level of violence - thanks to the rule of law, a functional government, and the civil mindset of our citizens. So the questions I have here are: How do we stop ongoing violence as a result of xenophobia? And, is there a clear red line between freedom of speech/expression and outright bigotry?

In Why did I join SAX?
I founded SAX to promote awareness in our amazing Hopkins community with the brightest young minds, so that we will be able to grow and learn from each other in even better harmony!

In What is xenophobia to me?
To me, xenophobia is an irrational and unreasonable fear of any foreigners regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. It affects our civilization tremendously by limiting intellectual and cultural exchange and growth, while constantly provoking unnecessary tension and distress among the most defenseless and vulnerable.
