By Walker MacMurdo

Thai-Cambodian Portland woman Rinna Rem is asking her "white friends" to financially contribute to her therapy expenses via a campaign through the crowdfunding website YouCaring. Rem states in the campaign description:

Rem cites a fact sheet published by the American Psychological Association and an article published in The Atlantic to reinforce statements such as "stress builds up cumulatively, resulting in higher risks of disease."

If you would like to contribute to Rem's therapy expenses, you can do so at her campaign's YouCaring page.
