every single asian person needs to unlearn their subconscious anti blackness. doesn’t matter if you’re dark or light skin, doesn’t matter where in asia you are from. all asian communities are permeated with anti blackness and it is both open and insidious. unlearn it and help your fellow asians to unlearn it. it isn’t Black people’s responsibility to take the fall for our prejudice. it is our own.
every single asian person needs to examine and actively change the ways in which they act/think/believe in anti-black sentiment
Menafee, who is 38 years old, said he wasn’t motivated by allegiance to student activists when, while helping clean the hall on Monday, June 13, he decided on a sudden impulse to knock the panel down.
“I took a broomstick, and it was kind of high, and I climbed up and reached up and broke it,” he said. “It’s 2016, I shouldn’t have to come to work and see things like that.”
“I just said, ‘That thing’s coming down today. I’m tired of it,’” he added. “I put myself in a position to do it, and did it.”

I’m bedbound with an extremely serious condition that is rapidly becoming worse [medical evidence] and I have a neurologist appointment in the coming week on Thursday 21st April. I’ve had to postpone this appointment twice already and I’ve been told off by my neurologist for it. I haven’t seen him face to face since November 2015 and I feel that if I’m forced to postpone the appointment once again, then it will seriously jeopardise the working relationship that I’ll be dependent on for the rest of my life. The problem is that I haven’t been able to pay off a paramedic invoice that currently totals $3475 (invoices). Currently I have literally no other options for transport as I need to be carried on a spine board or stretcher (details). I urgently need help to pay off most of the paramedic invoices within the next few days so that I can go to my appointment with the neurologist.
