Hi I am an asian american myself. I want to let everyone here know that despite the recent anti-asian incidents that have been circulating around social media and this bowl. I know that the irresponsible actions of a few individuals does not speak for everyone. I don’t think it’s fair for us to misrepresent people of color (we are in this group too) base on a few reckless individuals from those videos. We are all humans and our generations both faced discrimination in varying forms and severity.

They don’t speak for everyone, but when there’s a critical mass of incidents there’s a trend indicative of something larger. If Asian parents locking their car doors or not wanting you dating black partners is indicative of anti-blackness in Asian America, a statistically disproportionate number of black on Asian assaults and murders are indicative of anti-Asianness is black America.

It’s time the stop the flowery BS and pandering and time to sit down and have a real talk about what’s going on. There is no solidarity without honesty.

SM2, you forgot that honestly is also there is anti Asian sentiment in the black community. More so than the reverse I would argue.

In the end we are really fighting for the same cause. That we should acknowledge, be respectful and understanding of every ethnic group and color. Promote racial equality and end racial discrimination on all levels. It is easier said than done, but it will never happen unless someone starts. It starts now.

I agree. The mudslinging I am seeing between us and other racial groups is so unnecessary

I agree with you but just so you know the ALM hashtag doesn’t mean what you think it means.

Weird that you start with “I am an Asian American myself”.... not sure where your need to specify comes from.

I copied this over from the black consultants bowl. It was originally written for that bowl

Unless the bowl is for confrontations where everyone is direct and honest, it will just be another way to hunker down in the same positions that are in each individual bowl.

I’ve got a really good job. Wasn’t looking to move but a big 4 consulting firm reached out. I received a very generous/life changing offer. I’m so worried about work/life balance if I take this offer. Also worried about layoffs in a year or two when the market gets back to normal. I’ve got an infant and a 5 year old. I know that I can manage my current workload. I don’t want to pass up a great opportunity but I’ve got to be available for my family too!
