That Hasn’t Stopped the Hate. By Chaya Bhuvaneswar It was near the beginning of the pandemic, in mid-April of 2020, when a stranger spit on me. After apparently taking note of my hospital badge and mask, he announced that even though I was a doctor, I “brought the sickness.” He called me “Hindu,” along with a string of profanities. I felt intense pride about being a doctor — I’m a psychiatrist who was working in a hospital in the Boston area — when the country needed me most, and it made me feel deeply American. I had never served in war before, but now I was enlisted. My medical training encouraged me to focus on the work and deny and minimize the discrimination I faced. But the recent rise in attention to anti-Asian hate has forced me to reckon with how we Asian-American women doctors are demeaned as a group. I’ve been similarly stereotyped by colleagues and patients. Docile and passive. Deferential. Tentative. Servile. Our white coats and hospital badges don’t discourage aggression — they make us a target for it. I still feel proud of my work at the hospital during the pandemic. But I can no longer look away from the specific, fetishizing, gendered hate that Asian-American women face, both in and out of the hospital setting. Something has to change. Our valor should be reserved for coping with the challenges of a pandemic. 【词汇过关】 请写出下面文单词在文章中的中文意思。 1.spit [sp?t] vt. ____________________________ 2.badge [b?d?] n. ____________________________ 3.mask [mɑ?sk] n. ____________________________ 4.announce [??na?ns] vt. ____________________________ 5.Hindu [?h?ndu?] n. ____________________________ 6.profanity [pr??f?n?ti] n____________________________ 7.intense [?n?tens] adj. ____________________________ 8.
