You’re welcome Wil. Are you available to meet up tomorrow afternoon? Maybe between 1-2:30PM?

It is VERY “American”.

Where “Americans” means white citizens (and going way back, meant only white male land owners), right?

Thank you, Mae!

Great summary of the long American history of anti-Asian racism, Mae

Wow. Thank you Dr. Lee for that concise historical frame. This is why Ethnic Studies is so important for Every person in our society to learn about.

Yes, the paradox of U.S. wanting labor of immigrants of color while also not wanting them to have any avenues to have citizenship or political standing in the U.S. continues even today with agriculture and tech and other industry workers

It is interesting to see how the experiences of Asian Americans is similar to that of the African American community. I am glad I am here to learn about these racial issues

Yes, Thyra ^^

Thanks Mae. That was powerful and thought provoking

^^With you, Thyra! Yes, Karen. Also consistent with the history of the Mexican, Chicanx, Latinx communities.

If you have questions about anything presented, please feel free to direct message me them, and we'll try to direct them towards the end!

How quickly history repeats itself, yet so slow to correct itself.

Yes, Marilyn^^ Thank you, Jim, for providing more contemporary context for flareup of anti-Asian sentiment more recently

I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that fairmont hotel was a Chinatown once and the fact that it was pretty close to our campus

Thank you Mae. White power structures in America seem to have gone from acknowledging the economic benefits of immigration while using bullhorns to loudly fearmonger about racial differences to pretending the economic benefits of immigration don't exist while using a dogwhistle for the other half... and now we are back to bullhorn days while still there is denial about the economic half.

thank you Jim for saying all that in the same sentence

thank you, Jim!

Thank you Professor Nguyen, it helps to have this lens of the politics and sociology in play.

I appreciate your bringing up the issue of gun control to help stem deadly tragic violence and the political barriers necessary to fight to achieve that, Jim.

March 21st was really powerful! elder Mike Honda spoke greatly and his call to action was to focus on using your voting power for 2022 for congress elected officials

Yes, the blatant, brazen attacks have increased, but so has the response from multiracial/multicultural communities across the country, so this is inspiring to build on!

Jim, thank you for mentioning actions we can take.

Right on, Jim.

there was an aapi tech rally last Friday. I was there, aapi tech are getting involve

That’s great to hear, Dean.

Thank you for calling out the importance of Ethnic Studies, Maestro Hands!

we can heal and thrive en comunidad

Yes, how racism has dehumanized ALL of us.

* Maestro Handa

Compiled links will be sent again at the end for folks’ convenience, thank you for sharing Jim :)

Thank you, Mr. Handa.

I appreciate Robert Handa reminding us there are many different media channels/outlets and to be aware of the angle of coverage.

Yes, I too have seen a shift. Whereas in the past even journalist of color continued to frame stories from a lens that centers whiteness and the dominant lens, are now presenting stories from lens that center historically marginalized communities. “Objective” used to mean “white mainstream”.

Thanks

Mr Handa

and white journalists shouldn’t be assumed to be inherintly unbiased

Thanks for sharing that insight of taking on an identity as an “Asian American journalist” or a “journalist who is Asian American”. I like the shifting of “neutrality/objectivity” to not being afraid to take a stand in coverage to depict hate incidents as wrong.

*inherently

+1 to Karen Chow

Yes, thank you to Robert and panelists for pointing out the social inequalities that exacerbate racism and racial hostility

the reapprpriatino of janapese is waterehset too. finally got reapprorpeation

Michael chang talk about hellnville as watershed

Yes! Divide and Conquer is the oldest tool of oppression that is alive and well today, and we must be aware of it and not get pulled into this.

a great divide and conguer hhappen during Rodney king riot when Koreans fight agistst other ethnic group

Great summary question, Kimberly!

which I found stupid why would 2 minorities fight against each other when they should be uniting to combat racist

Yes, Jim! And Anti-Blackness needs to be addressed within Asian communities as well

Yes, super important Jim!

AAPI need to get together ith black life matter

^^

I agree!

Beautiful Mae. That really resonates on so many levels. This is a project of reclaiming our humanity, for everyone.

And, “How one defines the problem determines the possible solutions.

Thank you Dr. Lee. The model minority stereotype completely supports the current white supremacist system by giving it a justification to put other BIPOC down

model minority is actually a bad label. it allow Asian to be percieived to have previledge so they cannot be abused or be treate for hate crimes

“ Having a critical analysis includes questioning the way a question gets frames and what interests get served by framing the world in this way.

* the way a question gets framed . . .

and at the same time takes away from the diverse experiences of Asian Americans, especially Filipinx, SE Asians, and Pacific Islanders who historically have had it harder

YES!

Yes, Mae, Kim, Dean!

That was so strong

Wonderful event!

So glad we are recording this!

Great job facilitating the questions Kimberly :)

Thank you so much for hosting this event.

Yes also grateful that there will be a recording we can access later…
