These are the Black Philippines 🇵🇭 in Asia that the mainstream media will hardly show you. They are known as Negritos, one of the first inhabitants of Asia.

The positive feedback I got from my first Mermay drawing inspired me to make more. Here is an Aeta mermaid with a thresher shark tail resting at the beach.

I just watched Raya and the last dragon. Although it is by no means perfect there is a very positive aspect I'd like to point out: representation. I was so happy to see the directors did their research and included characters of all shades, with different features, highlighting the ethnic and cultural richness of Southeast Asia. For a moment, I thought they had forgotten to represent the indigenous people of Southeast Asia, until...

Let's not forget who the first inhabitants of South and Southeast Asia were.

Semang, Malaysia.

Maniq, Thailand.

Aeta, Philippines.

I encourage everybody to investigate about these original people, their history, culture and struggle.

Reposted from @know_thy_self_13 - Aladdin, which most people today associate with Persia and the Middle East thanks to movies like The Thief of Bagdad (1924) and Disney's Aladdin (1992), however the story is based on a Chinese Moslem. #AladdinMovie #ArabianKnights #BlueBlacknessHashtag #Asiatics #Autochthonous #Australoid #Aboriginals #OriginalMan #Indigenous #Indian #Negritos #Moros #Moors #Muurs #Moorish #Muurish #Melanin #Meditation #Murals #Art #ArtHistory #Buddhism #Manchuria #China #Dravidian #Hindustan #Krishna #WhoWereYouBefore1492 #MoorishHistoryIsWorldHistory 🌎 #AutochthonousPride ✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼 https://www.instagram.com/p/BvZYl6mnHkE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=arfg6vuvfvxu
