Being diagnosed w/ metastatic #breastcancer can be life changing both physically & emotionally.

I’m furious this morning after watching the video and reading some comments that he should have just complied. Comply with humiliation. Comply with the police’s refusal to answer basic questions. Comply with the real threat to your life. Comply with being treated like an animal.
Sakura Kokumai, an Asian American karate athlete who will compete in the Tokyo Olympics, said she was at a park in Orange County, California, when a man began yelling at her and using racial slurs. https://t.co/BfKJjHBoCU
I can’t tell you how many Black people in history were whipped, beaten, or lynched because they “didn’t comply” and then blamed for their own injuries and deaths since they “didn’t comply.”
Racial violence has changed clothes but still demands what won’t come: Black compliance.
Let’s make this clear. I have *zero* patience for anyone who belittles or mocks political activism because it isn’t done perfectly according to some imaginary standard which allows them to do nothing. If you are working toward fairness, equality, dignity, or safety, let’s go.
A once-in-a-century pandemic cannot be the only thing that slows mass shootings in this country. It’s time for leaders everywhere to listen to the American people when they say enough is enough.
Here are the names of the 4 people fatally shot at Young’s Asian Massage:
Delaina Ashley Yaun, 33
Paul Andre Michels, 54
Xiaojie Tan, 49
Daoyou Feng, 44
The 4 Atlanta victims’ names have yet to be released.
Remember the victims, not the shooter. #NoNotoriety#StopAsianHate
Did the murderer in the Atlanta area shoot employees at strip clubs to relieve his alleged temptations? Or adult video stores? Or adult movie theaters? NO. He specifically went to three locations that disproportionately had Asian women employees.

The Asian American Journalists Association (@aaja) has released guidance for newsrooms in the wake of the Atlanta-area shootings
A must read. #StopAsianHate https://t.co/1BvTzbynLz
Next time a POC goes on a murder spree, I would like to see them caught alive and given this bullshit excuse that they were having a "bad day". please. #BADDAY#Atlanta#StopAsianHate
By law, the VERY FIRST ppl excluded from the US were Asian/Chinese women in the 1880s. Then came The Chinese Exclusion Act. This country has hated Chinese/Asian ppl and specifically Asian women for well over a century. Talk abt this history of hate. Name it. See it.
Give me their names. Stop dehumanizing our people to numbers.
Tell me their ethnicities.
Deliver their stories.
Say that it was an Asian Hate Crime.
Say it louder.
#StopAAPIHate
Telling me that this crime was rooted in a "sex addiction" only further perpetuates the narrative that American society hates women more than the non-white narrative. It is both gender-based violence and racially motivated hate.
Own it. #Atlanta#StopAsianHate
