American karate star Sakura Kokumai says she was the target of anti-Asian slurs and threats while training at a park in California.
Kokumai, who has already qualified for the Tokyo Olympics, posted a series of videos on Instagram last week showing part of her encounter with a man at a basketball court in Orange County. The verbal attacks appear to start randomly. In one of the first clips, a man with orange shorts walks toward her and says "get away from me." She replied, "What have I done?"Pennsylvania was a pivotal state in the 2020 presidential election, sealing Joe Biden's victory over Donald Trump after four days of vote counting. So it's no surprise the Keystone State is again front and center this election cycle, with both Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump investing time and resources there ahead of Election Day.
