"Chinese and Indigenous communities have shared histories. We faced hardships together while mining for gold in the British Columbia gold rush and experiencing the rugged Canadian weather and terrain.
There are many graves on First Nations territories when Chinese people died from the flu and from the building of the railway, crushed by landslides, collapsing tunnels and premature blastings (Mittelstedt, 2014). The First Nations communities took in the Chinese railroad workers and care for their grave sites to this day (Mittelstedt, 2014). We enjoyed economic success and partnerships that were respectful and mutually beneficial (Ma, 2012). Chinese people leased lands (on First Nations) to farm and then hired Indigenous people to help farm the land (Mathur et al., 2011, p. 74). The Chinese built elaborate gold-mining operations among First Nations communities and perhaps most importantly our communities intermingled and there were many marriages between Chinese men and Indigenous women. In 1891, 98% of Chinese people in Canada lived in British Columbia (Barman, 2013, p. 1), which explains why there are such intimate ties between Chinese people and our First Nations communities in British Columbia. Unsurprisingly, one in six Chinese men created a family with a local Indigenous woman (Barman, 2013, p. 1)."

It took 14 years, but British Labour was finally elected. What took them so long?
By Matt Bevan and Yasmin ParryDuring their time in office, the UK Conservative Party was chaotic, inept and hubristic. But, if they were bad, the Labour Party's infighting might have been even worse.

Originating from tales of #Japanese & #Vietnamese prostitutes seducing US soldiers during #WW2 & the #VietnamWar, it is the fantasy that #AsianWomen are quiet, submissive, yet sexually promiscuous. In short, a #misogynist’s wet dream.
This idea that #AsianWomen would gracefully embrace male dominance whilst being an exotic sex toy spread like an epidemic, hence the name #YellowFever.

The #WhiteSupremacists on the #FarRight have #YellowFever — an #AsianWoman fetish. It’s a confusing mix.
The #ModelMinorityMyth exists alongside another dangerous & limiting idea — one that is consistent with the alt-right’s #misogyny & core #AntiFeminist values. The main problem with white women, as many alt-right #AsianFetishists have noted, is they’ve become too #feminist.

Here's the thing: It's my #POC community & as I'm a part of that, some of my #responsibilities is to address it within that community. It's not #WhiteFolks' jobs to do that - calling out/calling in/educating #diaspora Asian folks suffering from #InternalizedRacism & hurting fellow #Asians.
Just like it's not POC's jobs to deal with white #racists - it's the responsibilities of white folks to deal with problematic bigots in their own communities.

And now they're in the #BBC archives & there is some pretty grim stuff.... including the citation of letters in the Daily Mail as representative of the general view on #racerelations.... plus the great work of Barry Thorne complaining about the Black & White Minstrel show straits in 1962 & continuing for over a decade being rebuffed by top management in largely #racist terms... shocking stuff!

Happy Saturday, mutuals. Lots of #juneteenth celebrations going on this weekend. A happy #juneteenth2023 to all. The battle for equality is far from over for most minority groups, especially African Americans. Subject to institutional racism, discrimination in housing, jobs, education and access to services; our African American brothers and sisters now face voting restrictions, increasing hostility and the erasure of the actual history of their race in building our country. It is a difficult time, requiring more involvement and direct action to stem the reactionary white supremest and christian nationalist movements spearheading contemporary hate and discrimination. #race #racerelations #equality #HumanRights
