a reminder for nonasian people

you know… with this rise in interest in east asian culture and “aesthetics” over the past couple of years also comes with a rise in asian cultural appropriation… so for every nonasian out there who would consider themselves a fan of cutesy asian things or stuff like kpop or anime, you guys have an obligation to people of the culture you’re enjoying to be informed and educated about their struggles. it’s not right to love and consume cultures that’s not your own while ignoring the people who are part of them. read up on appropriation, the fetishisation and infantilisation of east asian women and desexualisation of asian men, whitewashing in media, xenophobia, the erasure of our achievements and the model minority myth. you owe it to us east asians to be educated on topics that concern us if you’re going to continue to consume media and content we make.

EDIT: if you’re nonasian please reblog this so that other nonasians can see it!!

I’m just so upset because Leslie obviously had so much fun on the press tour, but then she gets cyberbullied horrifically by a bunch of racists. Then she goes and has the time of her life at the olympics and now she has to deal with being doxxed and having her private photos and even personal info out on the internet. This is more than any fucking human deserves to go through. She’s done literally nothing wrong. All she’s done is be super outspoken and successful and these fuckers hate that. Protect Leslie Jones now more than ever, because now is going to be a fragile time. Who knows if she’ll even be on social media after this.

Claressa Shields becomes the first American boxer to win two gold medals.

Flint, Michigan, native Claressa Shields, 21, made history Sunday when she became the first athlete from the United States to win two Olympic gold medals in boxing — a feat no American man or woman has achieved in the 112 years since the sport was introduced to Olympic competition.

In an ecstatic on-camera interview after her medal-winning performance, Shields made it clear where she stands on the echelons of boxing greatness. The above quote really says it all. 

Shields is just the latest example of #BlackExcellence at Rio.

What’s happening to Leslie Jones right now is so disgusting. Not only have these trolls attacked her, but now someone has hacked her personal website and leaked her nudes. All because she was in a fucking movie. Goddamn, black women need so much protection from this bullshit. What has been happening to her is a blatant hate crime, but watch as white media paints these crimes as “kids just joking around.”

Policemen are now enforcing the burkini ban on French beaches at gunpoint

Attempts to enforce the ban have already led to outrageous images such as this one. In any other context, a gang of armed men telling a woman to take her clothes off would be a crime. On the French Riviera, it’s the law. But one businessman has stepped in to correct what he sees as a wrong.

There is nothing liberating about forcing people to take their clothes off. -V
