In light of #AhmaudArbery and ongoing police violence, how can the Asian and Asian American community show up for our Black siblings?
here are deep historical wounds we need to heal that exist between Asians and Black people, and there are fresh wounds being created everyday asThe oppression against Black people is perpetuated not only by White people, but us Asians, too: in Chinatowns all over the U.S., in Asian countries, in our workplaces, online on social media, in our daily lives.
In our quest to survive, some of us may have been striving to become White-adjacent— as successful as White people, as fitting in and assimilated as White people, as deserving as White people of dignity and respect — and along the journey, consciously or subconsciously, have adopted the language and beliefs of White Supremacy and anti-Blackness.
And deep down, many of us know in our bones that we never were, and never will be, as free as White people, because that is the wrong goal. In order for us to truly be free, we need all of us — ALL OF US — Black, Brown, Asian, Native, LGBTQ+, disabled, poor, undocumented people to be free.Not just aching for Black and Brown people, but also because of the vicious attacks on our people, too.
