Honored to write for @culturestrike on #netneutrality and even more thrilled to have my writing illustrated by the incomparable and amazing artist @juliosalgado83 . . Internet access is a right. It is imperative to the way we communicate, run businesses, educate ourselves, fight, organize and mobilize. According to Camille Fassett with Freedom of the Press Foundation, "net neutrality is the principle that internet connections are not filtered, restricted, or manipulated based on their content. In the United States, that principle is enforced by a set of rules designed to ensure that neither internet service providers (ISPs) nor the government can tamper with the delivery speed or accessibility of certain data." At CultureStrike, not only are we a tight-knit network of cultural strategists, artists, writers, and filmmakers, we rely on the open internet to reach our communities, locally, nationally, and internationally. But the most affected by this change in accessibility to internet access are communities of color, which relates directly to our access to health, job, and educational resources. . . As many people on social media have already commented on the decision, an open internet goes far deeper than access to social media, sharing memes and funny videos. It enables us to witness social justice movements and resistance our mentors and elders dreamed about such #ArabSpring, #BlackLivesMatter, #NotYourMascot, #MeToo, #GirlsLikeUs, #BindersFullofWomen, #NotYourAsianSidekick, #BlackGirlMagic, and countless others. It allows for collaborators to co-create artwork and tell stories in radically different ways that affect change. It bridges communication between families separated by the diaspora. It gives an aspiring, young, queer trans writer and artist the opportunity to see videos and access content meant to uplift and inspire them to move forward in their practice. The internet is the last digital terrain we can, collectively, keep from being colonized. Let’s continue to battle for the free and open internet. . . Visit http://bit.ly/2CCOTWu to learn more!

"Being a little person, Asian and female is hard for someone to be taken seriously. I always got doubted and told I couldn't do it. Anything really, people doubted or judged. Getting my license and driving a big truck was my first "in your face, I can do anything you can do" moment. No one ever expects someone like me to hop down from the driver’s seat but it doesn't stop them from trying to question my ability. Yes I do drive a big truck. Yes I can drive perfectly fine. Yes you can take your criticism and doubt somewhere else."- Rachel Taketa #neverthelessshepersisted #ThisIsWhatDemocracyLooksLike #LetLizSpeak #shepersisted #futureisfemale #nastywoman #elizabethwarren #genderstereotypes #resist #TheRisistance #feminism #equality #fuckpoliteness #littleperson #intersectionality #notyourasiansidekick (at Portland, Oregon)

So is it each respective #culture which imposes this representation or is it the system which enforces #statusquo? . #racism #america #love #respect #wakeup #neverforget #source #individual #asian #black #hispanic #notyourasiansidekick #notyourstockwoman #whiteprivilege #crimingwhilewhite

For white liberals, it’s easy to say satire is just satire. It’s easy to believe a joke that supports one minority’s cause is a joke that all minorities should support.  It’s easy for white people to believe these things because the jokes don’t affect them.

It’s been two years since Suey Park, a young social activist mostly working through Twitter, became one of the most reviled voices on social media.
