@LACityParks Hey! Why is camp registration only available online and at 9am on a Friday morning? What if you work? What if you don't have a computer? What if you don't have a smart phone that can be tied up for 45 minutes?

@jsanofranchini Imagine 12 year old me in Indiana when I discovered the Colonel was not an old Asian dude

@Pedro__Iniguez I am always astonished at these "opportunities" that are "offered" to POC writers. #bitchplease. .

Where should I eat while I am in Berkeley/NoCal? #twitterstorians

[Anne Soon Choi @annesoonchoi]

@MakingCostumes @huntington Huntington Library in SoCal--poor tweeting on my part. Many apologies @huntington

[Anne Soon Choi @annesoonchoi]

Doing research @huntington. I am getting coffee and a white dude chats me up about my project. He proceeds to tell me that my project is less historically significant than I think and that I should check in with my advisor so I don't go off track. #fullprofessor #twitterstorians

[Anne Soon Choi @annesoonchoi]

@tknoll209K @huntington I have literally never commented at the archives about the significance of a person's project. I assume that folks are doing the research #stayinginmylane

@ProfArumPark I am very impressed. The sounds of small children sawing away on the violin and cello here are grim

[Anne Soon Choi @annesoonchoi]

I just sighed and rolled my eyes. He presented as a grad student. But the absolute disrespect. I pretty sure he wouldn't have suggested that a male researcher check in with his advisor

[Anne Soon Choi @annesoonchoi]

@Montmass You have to be kidding me. But I know you're not.

[Anne Soon Choi @annesoonchoi]

@IChatterjea Apparently she is as terrible now as she was when I was a grad student

@blacklionking73 Soulless soul is an apt description. And here we go with "grit" again

@breedespain But also, the trope of the Ivy League has a particular cultural reference, power, and meaning for communities of color, it serves a metalanguage, a symbol of so many things that speaks to the experiences of non-white immigrants
