Monterey Park, a city with a strong Asian-majority population, still feels the impact two years after a mass shooting at a local dance studio took the lives of 11 people. Residents, including those directly affected by the shooting, are focusing on moving forward and building a stronger community. Local hero Brandon Tsay, who stopped the gunman before he could harm more people, is seeing a resurgence in the dance community. The loss of the victims is still deeply felt, and efforts to honor them and support the community continue.
Families of the victims and the community as a whole are coming together to remember the tragedy and heal together. A memorial vigil will be held by the city of Monterey Park, and plans for a permanent monument are underway. Despite the pain and trauma, the community is striving to move forward and create a positive environment where residents can feel safe and supported.
