Stop the use of the term "Chinese Auction" for fundraising events.


Stop the use of the term "Chinese Auction" for fundraising events.
The Issue
The origins of the term Chinese Auction are extremely vague, but can imply racist attitudes towards Chinese people. My daughter is a Chinese Born American and I would like her to be able to go to school, that prides itself on it's anti-bullying policies, and not have to pick up fundraising flyers that contain this offensive term. Thank you in advance!
