  1. There is hope, I guess.
    "Nearly 80% of Americans support solutions to uplift Asian American communities, including education reform and community investment."

    41% support requiring Asian-American history to be taught in schools.

    However, given how many both believe Asian-Americans to be a threat and believe they are not loyal to the U.S., I do wonder where this desire comes from.

  3. 1967: The War on #Vietnam Heats Up — Along With Public Opinion.

    According to a 1979 essay by #political scientists Peter Sperlich and William Lunch, “1967 was the year of the hawk.” Indeed, most Americans preferred escalation — likely because they thought doing so would expedite the conflict's end. Meanwhile, preference for withdrawal fell.

  8. Okay, I did write up a whole thing about the uptick in anti-Indian rhetoric among US-based white nationalists since JD Vance got the nomination. I think the writing isn't embarrassingly bad, but I might still be too sick to know (tho I am feeling a bit better today -- thanks to everyone who expressed concern!).

    At any rate, Medium calls this a 7 minute read, so if you've got that, it'd be better to read the whole thing. If you don't, here's the highlights reel:

    - JD Vance is married to the daughter of Indian immigrants.

    - He even went to far as to produce babies with her, thereby tainting the purity of his own whiteness and that of his offspring in perpetuity.

    - White nationalists like Nick Fuentes and Stew Peters are none too happy about this, and are now losing their petite minds over the "Indian takeover of American politics".

    - This may be a passing thing, but it may not, and there's no reason to assume it couldn't progress from rhetoric to physical violence. (This is not to say that South Asian people aren't already subjected to violence in the US, but rather that this shift in rhetoric has the potential to augment it.)

    - It is also an indication of the flimsiness of "model minority" status and the ease with which it can be revoked.

    That's the gist, but there's obviously a lot more detail in the essay. Make of it what you will.

  13. One of the reasons for the invisibility of #AntiAsianRacism is inextricably connected to #ModelMinorityMyth. The myth focuses on #stereotypes of #Asians as hard-working, independent, intelligent & economically prosperous.

    Stereotypes hide many issues & disappears the realities of working-class #AsianWomen’s lives.

    The myth has also sometimes disrupted #InterRacial #solidarity & has been used against #Indigenous, #Black & other #RacializedGroups

  17. I get that China has a SHITTY record on human rights, but hey.. if we're talking about surveillance states and you're not mentioning the Australian police using facial recognition without ANY accountability, or the NSW Police Force use of STMP (Suspect Target Management Plan - a predictive policing 'black list' that is meant to predict people becoming deviant and is literally 50% Indigenous people listed), then you might just be a racist.

    Unconventional but I'm so glad the guest editors at Journal of Asian American Studies #JAAS gave me a chance.

    I think you can see the #illustrations at the link, but here are the originals, and a different color variation I liked but didn't submit. Eye contact in images.
