Repost from @kimsaira • Include Asian Americans Repost from @kimsaira
•
Include Asian Americans in your anti-racism work. Due to covid, Asians have seen a spike of xenophobia & racist hate crimes all throughout the world that need to be spoken about & accounted for.
〰️
Historically, Asians have faced disparities such as the model minority myth. The model minority myth was created by Americans during post WWII, to portray the narrative that Asian immigrants successfully assimilated, despite experiencing racism in America.
〰️
This is not only harmful & incredibly racist, but farther from the actual truth. 
〰️
The model minority myth was created to pit Asians against other BIPOC races, especially during a time where mass Asian immigration was happening in America. 
〰️
Also, it fails to recognize the different experiences of all different Asian racial groups, & also ignores Southeast Asian populations such as Thai, Vietnamese, Philippines, Hmong, Laotian, Cambodian, and South Asians such as Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal, as well as Indigenous people. It diminishes their real struggles, & wipes away their history & trauma.
〰️
+ Due to the model minority myth, people have grouped Asian Americans with the likeness of white people. 
〰️
Please support and stand up for Asian American communities. Remember them in your anti-racism work. Hate crimes are happening everywhere, we need the media to be covering them, & there needs to be accountability for them. 
〰️
✨The quote + last slide are from @seoulcialite!! 
〰️
✏️Note: I made the comments limited for my ✨mental health✨Please note that the entire point of this post is to draw attention to the hate crimes happening towards Asians, which isn’t being broadcasted by the mass media. This post is also targeted at ➡️ white people & performative activism. In no way is the purpose of this post meant to say that Asians are more important over any other race. Thank you!!

The @nytcooking posted these amazing looking & sou The @nytcooking posted these amazing looking & sounding Bittersweet Brownie Shortbread Bars from
@clarkbar’s recipe. Even though the holidays are over, my cupboards are still full of baking ingredients, so I had to make these! My neighbor’s response to his package on his doorstep, “OMG you outdid yourself. These are delicious!!!!!! I thought it was yellow cake but it tastes like shortbread?  And the chocolate is like frosting.” Yeah, simple to make and a big hit! #ChowChick

PLEASE READ, need your help (link in profile page) PLEASE READ, need your help (link in profile page)😢
Hey Guys! Sadly, October is breast cancer awareness month, and it has hit my family very personally. My big sister (Kim) was just diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. Due to her complicated situation, I’m trying to raise money to help with some of her expenses. I’m also hoping that maybe by sharing, we can help someone else with early detection. If you’d like to donate, there’s a link to my GoFundMe page in my profile.  Your positive thoughts and words of encouragement are appreciated too. You can read on here or in the GoFundMe page.

It is really hard for me to ask for help, AND I know so many people are suffering right now, but my family needs your support. Kim just got hit with the greatest challenge of her life, the insidious cancer. Like many people during this horrible time of COVID, she was furloughed, then laid off. With the loss of her medical insurance on the horizon, she rushed to get her mammogram and then needed a biopsy. Days after her insurance ended, they delivered the devastating news she had stage 2 breast cancer, which has already spread to a lymph node. It’s all still unfolding right now; however, she has begun chemotherapy (just about a week ago – early October).

While we have been able to find some assistance for her medical treatment, there’s just not enough to cover her basic living costs (rent, car, utilities, etc.). My parents and I are helping, but we really can’t do this alone without devastating ourselves financially.  We’re hoping some assistance comes through for her, but there are no guarantees, and it could take a while. 

Kim lives in Las Vegas, close to our parents. Her adult son lives in Los Angeles.  I’m the only one still in southern California (Belmont Shore). Most of you reading this likely know me, so I’m confident you trust that all funds raised are purely to assist my sister (help with the rent, food, utilities, medical bills and anything to keep her healthy and as comfortable as possible during this fight). I am working full-time and my hours can be long and grueling, but I will do my best to respond to you all and keep you updated. Thank you🙏🏻 #TheChowChick
“I would like to be remembered as someone who us “I would like to be remembered as someone who used whatever talent she had to do her work to the very best of her ability." RBG I think she surpassed that goal long before her death.  Had to share this beautiful illustration & representation by @ashleylongshoreart

I miss traveling, I miss dining out and exploring I miss traveling, I miss dining out and exploring food spots, but this BBQ meal from @bbealestexasbbq transported me. While it’s Texas BBQ, it reminded me of some great BBQ I had in Kansas City 😋😋😋 My second time picking up a meal here and great food both times! Um, I somehow ate all of that, easily🤪 Brisket, trip-tip, yams, and cornbread. Am thrilled to have a fairly local (5 miles away in Huntington Beach), Black-owned restaurant I can support that is so delicious too! Y’all need to get over there 😋#ChowChick

A memorial I wish we never needed. A horrible day A memorial I wish we never needed. A horrible day in our history. Remembering a sleepless early morning on 9/11, when I turned on the news and shortly after heard the newscasters witnessing the first plane strike, then watching it all unfold, live on TV. Like nothing most of us have ever experienced in our lives. Now, here we are during this horrible pandemic, remembering this horrible day in our history that forever changed our country. Thinking of all those lost and those who lost loved ones during this horrible day, those in or near the sites, and all those involved in rescue or aid. I took these pictures a few years ago while visiting the site of the twin towers. It’s a beautiful tribute to a horrific day. #neverforget911 #911 #911memorial #911memorialmuseum #911neverforget🇺🇸 #911newyork
Some great (and scary) memories staying in this be Some great (and scary) memories staying in this beautiful area of Brittany, France. I stayed at the Le Relais de Broceliande in Paimpont. It’s located in a forest (Foret de Broceliande - the scary part of my visit) that barely has any lights on the pitch black, forest roads at night🤦🏻‍♀️ So stressful driving about 2 hours back to my hotel at night, but worth it! But such a beautiful & charming area. #ChowChick

This is perfection for a sad reason. Please open y This is perfection for a sad reason. Please open your minds to the injustice and racism engrained in us, our culture, and strive for better. It’s okay to admit you were wrong or didn’t know or... What is the harm in reevaluating ourselves, wanting more, better for the all those hurting & crying out? They can’t all be wrong😢 We need to strive to continuously grow, be better, want better for all. Be the example. Make our children love all, know better, be proud we made a difference.🙏🏻#blacklivesmatter .

Please choose to have an open mind and heart, and Please choose to have an open mind and heart, and watch (sound up). Anyone still responding to #BlackLivesMatter with anything other than understanding & support, maybe this will register 🙏🏻😢 Repost from @givensharp •
I had no idea this video would take off like it did. I just want to thank anyone who has shared it and anyone who has received the message. This is the same analogy that helped me understand the #BLM movement when it first began. To those of you who still say “All Lives Matter”: of COURSE all lives should matter. But the fact is that white lives have ALWAYS mattered in the eyes of the government and police force. The same cannot be said for POC. No one is saying your life doesn’t matter. However, until the day comes that Black Americans aren’t being shot in their homes, in the street, and in their cars, you CANNOT tell me that all lives matter in the eyes of our society. All lives won’t matter until black lives do. #nojusticenopeace

[*EDIT* Thank you to everyone in the comments that have let me know of the originator of the analogy! I had seen it used on a lot of different pages so I wasn’t sure who to credit. Inspired by @krisstraub @talibkweli 💛]
Anyone at a loss for what to say or do (like me), Anyone at a loss for what to say or do (like me), and realizes they overlooked their Black friends, loved ones, and colleagues, maybe this post will help you start🤷🏻‍♀️🙏🏻 If you’re genuine and speak your truth, it will likely be well-received. My friends and colleagues responses touched me and warmed-my heart.  This is one example of what I sent one friend. #BlackLivesMatter #BeTheChange #IStandWithYou #EqualityForAll #JusticeForAll #endracism
