"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations."

-Anais Nin

PROTECT ASIAN LIVES, STOP AAPI/ASIAN HATE

We’d like to make it very clear that this blog supports the Protect Asian Lives and Stop Asian Hate movement. Please note that there is a preference for Protect Asian Lives as many Asian activists have spoken up about the emptiness of “Stop Asian Hate.” With “hate” implying only the most outward and visible violence is what needs to be addressed when it is an entirely systematic issue that needs to be tackled.

We stand in solidarity against the racism, physical violence and the systemic injustices against the Asian community. As a blog that specifies in theatre created and produced by Asians, this systemic issue matters to us.

We urge you to please check out the following organisations and resources, and act against the racial discrimination and systemic abuses against the Asian community, no matter how small the effort.

Anti-Asian Violence Resources Cardd, you can find lots of resources  and links to how to help and how to increase your awareness of specific anti-asian racism.

BEKKATHYST 8 YEAR ANNIVERSARY GIVEAWAY ~ 2021

~This giveaway is in no way affiliated with Tumblr.~

Please read thoroughly before entering!

Hello lovely Tumblr folk! It’s that time again- I have a giveaway for you all. This time we're celebrating the 8th birthday of my little shop! 💜

We have both an online store and a physical location that could use your support!

My business is just a small, family run establishment that I started here on tumblr in 2013. I’ve been lucky enough to grow to the point where my husband and I opened a brick and mortar store and I’ve been able to employ my mother and several of my siblings! I’ve been supporting my mom and younger siblings since 2016 💜 I’ve always put compassion and ethics above all else in my business!

This giveaway will have one winner.

What the winner receives:

The large assortment of crystals pictured above! There are 25 crystals in total. Their full retail value is about $450

Rules:

You must be 16 or older. (If under 18 you MUST have parent’s permission)

You don’t have to live in the US to join!

Shipping is entirely free, I will cover it. But if you live outside the US and for whatever reasons your country wants to charge you import tax, you are responsible for it. If it gets sent back to me, you will need to pay shipping to have it sent again.

You must be following me, so you can get updates if anything about the giveaway changes.

Please check out our online shop!

DO NOT tag this post as giveaway. That will risk the notes getting messed up, and this will be ruined for everyone.

Reblog this post to enter. Likes count, too. No giveaway or spam blogs. If you reblog on a side blog, let me know in the tags what the name of your blog is that you’re following me with.

Please don’t spam people with reblogs- limit 2 reblogs per blog per day.  

At the end, each entry will be assigned a number and the winner will be chosen by a random number generator.

The giveaway ends Monday, May 17th, 2021 at 6 pm Pacific time.

The winner will be messaged and must respond with their full name and address within 24 hours, or a new winner will be chosen.

Please respect me and my rules, and have fun!

I started a list called: "Historical Documentaries That Fill In The Blanks"!

I created this list as a means to share documentaries that I personally find to be monumental in understanding American history. Growing up there were many topics I “learned” about or heard in brief passing that were never elaborated upon. Things which never really had proper context and existed as mysterious,  disjointed events that were never given more than a few paragraphs in our textbooks, if any. I hope that with this list others will also be able to fill in those blanks and have better contextual understanding of America’s history, so much of which has been glossed over, outright ignored, or warped to form idealized narratives. 

Note that of course these are only starting points that offer one a place to start and do further research and not meant to be the “End All Be All ‘The End.'” kind of list. This list is simply meant to expand understanding and context.
