And when confronted and held accountable, they respond with gaslighting, fake apologies, enthusiastic promises for hollow and lazy "diversity training" and threats. The company is called Chicago Search Group and is not a safe place for Asian women and POC. #Asiantwitter #ProAsian

The loaded slur "me love you long time" is dehumanizing and outright dangerous. It encourages violence and perpetuates the casual dehumanization of Asian women for non-Asian consumption.

The casual fetishization of Asian women is a manufactured and ingrained part of Western identity, rooted in imperialism, theft, and death. But to white men it's simply all in good fun for their private enjoyment among other white men.

Today is the 37 anniversary of the brutal hate crime murder of Vincent Chin the night of his bachelor’s party. But the murderers were only fined $3000 & served no jail time. https://t.co/H0HxLAF2QA

This week in 2002, US soldiers driving a 60 ton armored vehicle ran over two South Korean 13 year-old school girls, Shin Hyo-sun and Shim Mi-Seon, as they were walking to a birthday party. The US soldiers were acquitted of all charges, unleashing a wave of anti-American protests.

I created this music video as my personal way of coming out as a proud gay man who has many unheard, specific stories to tell. I withheld because of fear and shame shaped by my background but I promise to give my full truth in the rest of my life's work.🏳️‍🌈

English fluency." A reminder that the greatest perpetrators of violence against Asian women in the US are white. And the way white media portrays Asian women victims and humanizes white men perpetuates the systemic dehumanization that leads to these crimes. #JusticeforZhang

Despite the horrific murder of Zhang Yingying, mainstream media continually tries to push the sympathy angle for white murderers. We learn more about the defense's "explanation" of how he was a (insert great student, life problems, poor man down on his luck, etc) than the victim

who we learn very little about other than she was "in the wrong place at the wrong time." Along with very questionable descriptions that almost sound like an attempt at a grotesque novel describing the murderer as "tall and muscular" and Zhang as "small stature and lacking

“I believe that she felt pressured into it and she was not in a good mental state to basically tell them no,” Jenn was quoted by Global News as saying. “She felt like she couldn’t say no to them.” https://t.co/Vg8VNZgFKG

This thread.

Only a few years older than me, Yang Song was raped at gunpoint by a police officer and when she tried to report, was threatened, harassed and finally killed. Falling four stories to her death.

We take a look on how Asian women were seen just as “unassimilable" and threatening to the white hetereopatriarchy.

Since Yeonmi Park is on the tl again, I want to share again one of my fav independent docs about how DPRK citizens who 'defect' to South Korea are bribed to lie about the North or are extorted by the SK gov until they give in to anti-North propaganda:
