Abstract
The coronavirus has unleashed another pandemic: xenophobia. This article aims to counter the xenophobic narrative that affects many Asians and people of Asian descent due to the COVID-19 pandemic. To counter this narrative, we offer an anti-racist digital citizenship framework in social studies. This illustrates a critical triad of self-regulation, empathy, and compassion. Self-regulation is the ability to develop cognitive control of emotional reactivity to facilitate self-directed change. Empathy is the understanding of another person's emotional state and the projection of oneself into the other's situation. Compassion is taking mindful action to alleviate the struggles and sufferings of others.
