Are you guys all speaking up about it in your circles? I found that when I spoke up and informed people, my friends have shown up for me and are reposting, signing the change petition, and some have volunteered to escort/walk around Chinatown leading up to LNY. I was initially angry that no one was speaking up except me but found that they just didn’t know because they’re not Asian and aren’t following Asian sites. But now that they are aware (and believe me it’s another thing we spoke about that they didn’t even think to seek to educate themselves on Asian matters), I have so many friends following and learning about it from Dion Lim, Nextshark, and so many other sites that I’m feeling a little hopeful. Is it performative? Possibly, but right now just being made aware of the plight is at least a step in the right direction.

I agree...empty promises ans false sense of inclusion.

it's hard not to be cynical given how skewed media is in either direction and reality is there only seems to be so much attention/bandwidth available so BLM is at forefront (which is sadly 100% necessary) but as usual- AA topics shoved to bottom of the list

I'm an expert in a very in demand field - get quoted in articles all the time but have not been able to connect with anyone in academia.
