Wann hat DER denn zuletzt mal bei Berichten über Naziaufmärsche richtig hingeschaut?????
Und die Erschießung seines Parteikollegen Walter Lübcke war ihm noch nicht aggressiv genug??

Er sollte mal bei #PoC nachfragen, was die so von #Nazi-Übergriffen erzählen ..

Der ist echt nicht ganz fit im Schritt, dieser Typ ...

Think about how clueless someone would have to be to accept this as a credible explanation for what’s happening to the #US economy.

Well, #Trump and his bootlickers are trying to fire every federal worker who *doesn’t* buy it.

Trump & #Musk aren’t merely getting rid of #women, #POC and others who benefited from #DEI practices.

They’re hiring/retaining the dumbest fuскing people in the country.

I know a lot of people in the #transgender / #lgbtqia community are legitimately horrified at this news, but I think we need to be clear...

The people who are most immediately at risk here are #black, #latino ... #poc. Why? Because they are already in the prison system, and can most politically expediently be offshored to El Salvadoran slave camps, as a way of saving money. Nevermind people's family members will be cut off from them, and a much higher % won't survive.

We need #unity NOW!!!

⬆️ >>>> The protests were not perfect. Anecdotally and observationally, they were very #white—not exactly representative of the #Democratic coalition.

>> Might that be because #POC are more likely to be arrested than #white people during protests?

Yes! There's always that danger in a society so openly #racist.

I am a PoC myself. That's why I linked to #CivicSolidarity#Cops kept #protesters safe! #BlackMastodon

Hello to all the folks from not-shithole countries (remember that term? Seems almost civil and demure now) – Strange times are these that you’re facing immigration issues as you visit other not-shithole countries. I had hoped we would achieve equality in our experiences with us #POC folks unlocking the not-shithole experience, but it seems like you’re being downgraded to the shithole experience instead. Balance finds a way!

After a lifetime of #TravellingWhileBrown, I’ve got some immigration tips for you

1/

2010. When I played a scarface #Asian mafia boss lady on a horror film short production. Filmed at the old Hung Fat #kungfu club in Chinatown. Gentrification got their longtime, oldest kungfu association in BC, evicted a few years ago.

Gloria Tsoi, pictured with me, owns & runs the kung-fu club - passed down from ancestors. We've been friends since the 90s.

Their website:

#Trans people, #women, people of color [#POC] are being erased

Across #Trump’s federal government, agencies have been busy scrubbing photographic and written references about women, people of color & members of the #LGBTQ+ community from their websites.

A better solution for foreign students is to stop idolizing the US universities. They tend to be overrated academically and are very expensive.

The top ten or twenty are pretty good for networking within the US Empire though and that’s probably the only real advantage. However, that advantage is rapidly diminished if you’re a #POC or #woman.

Outside of the top few, there really is no advantage to US universities. Plus universities outside of the US often offer aid packages.

"Chinese and Indigenous communities have shared histories. We faced hardships together while mining for gold in the British Columbia gold rush and experiencing the rugged Canadian weather and terrain.

There are many graves on First Nations territories when Chinese people died from the flu and from the building of the railway, crushed by landslides, collapsing tunnels and premature blastings (Mittelstedt, 2014). The First Nations communities took in the Chinese railroad workers and care for their grave sites to this day (Mittelstedt, 2014). We enjoyed economic success and partnerships that were respectful and mutually beneficial (Ma, 2012). Chinese people leased lands (on First Nations) to farm and then hired Indigenous people to help farm the land (Mathur et al., 2011, p. 74). The Chinese built elaborate gold-mining operations among First Nations communities and perhaps most importantly our communities intermingled and there were many marriages between Chinese men and Indigenous women. In 1891, 98% of Chinese people in Canada lived in British Columbia (Barman, 2013, p. 1), which explains why there are such intimate ties between Chinese people and our First Nations communities in British Columbia. Unsurprisingly, one in six Chinese men created a family with a local Indigenous woman (Barman, 2013, p. 1)."

Was #listening to #PBSNewsHour from last night and I was turned on to #Death, an African-American #PunkRock band, but considered #ProtoPunk because they were ahead of their time compared to other #punk bands according to the Newshour.

Put this album on just now and my mind is blown at how good this is! Not surprising that #PoC musicians are amazing, but this blew away my already high expectations! You have to give this a listen if you haven't!
