thejeanniemai Racism has no hierarchy! COVID-19 and the hateful rhetoric of Donald Trump have catalyzed a surge in anti-Asian violence. Fighting racism against Asians is deeply tied to the social justice we are fighting for through George Floyd, Atatinia Jefferson, Botham Jean, Breonna Taylor and the countless Black bodies that have fallen victim to hate because racism has no hierarchy!

"Go home chinks," was spray painted across my aunt's car when I was a kid. We had just walked out of my house because she was giving me a ride to school. She asked me what those words meant. I felt embarrassment and shame. I didn't want her to feel what I was feeling. I have now realized that over time I've accepted these racist remarks because, as a first generation immigrant in America, I thought I had to accept the good (freedom) with the bad (racism). These times have taught me to unlearn.

"Model minority" seems like a compliment, but it does great harm. And I am guilty for following it while growing up: "Don't argue back," "don't cause trouble with police." "Do our best to show Americans that we blend in." "If we take the hit, life would be so much easier." Today I've learned "assimilation" is a masking word meant to break down who I am in service to this white America.

Just because we don't see public lynching anymore, racial hate has manifested in other spaces of our society: from broken criminal justice systems to voter suppression, racist cops and Karens, and systematic killing of Black bodies. The transparency of America's racism and social injustice reflect the country's denial of basic human rights for People of Color. We need to work together- we have the same goal in becoming anti-racist and dismantling white supremacy.

"Racism has no hierarchy!"

and yet she acknowledges that Asians are seen as the "model minority". Make up ur mind dummy

If this whore wants to talk about racism , talk about how one of her cousins shot Latasha Harlins dead in LA and walked away with no jail time. Yet another story of Asians setting up their shops in black neighborhoods, taking black money and treating blacks like shit.

Talk about how Asians strategically monopolize the beauty store industry by buying up and controlling many warehouses which supply products that would help to grow a new beauty business , and put all the informational manuals in Korean language to ensure no Blacks get a fair share in ownership ... in an industry that WE contribute the most to financially with all the beauty products we buy and should be having more control of.

Yeah let's talk about racism ho.

It's crazy she's pushing this nonsense considering that Latasha JUST got her first memorial since her death in 1991 early this year .
