@haldaume3 .@timnitGebru 's reply pointed out that the choice isn't between ignoring a community or performing research on them: what about allocating resources to support the work being done by those communities, that meets their needs?
Re Asian diaspora: relying on how many people check the “Asian” box to measure diversity can easily imply “you’re at a disadvantage because your oppressor is well-represented in my field”. That’s violent, and we can do better.
i'm late but i just didn't/don't know what to say, as an asian-woman-kinda. anti-asian sentiment runs deep in this country. yet "asian" is a diverse category. we do not all experience race(ism) in america in the same way. diaspora is complicated. don't post a yellow square
ok just listened to @KreutzerJulia and @Onyothi on topics from gender ambiguity in NLP to decolonization+attunement of human-in-the-loop systems, and all I can say is everyone needs to follow them. #jawonthefloor
