My high school nickname was a derogatory term for a Chinese person until the school board changed it in my freshman year (1980).
It wasn't one person who deemed this to be nor one person who caused this to be changed. It was a community whose racial attitudes were shamed and changed, at least in this matter.
Are you from Pekin IL? Aint nothing changed in that town. Get outta here with your tall tales.
Im in Bloomington. Pekin is still racist af. Bartontucky too.
Well, Pekin was a sundown town that has been unwelcome to Black Americans for quite some time, and I think the Klan was pretty strong there for awhile. As for the HS team name, some Chinese Americans came out to ask the school to change the name back in the 1970s and the school voted that down. I think they got around to changing it in 1980 or so.
According to the narrative the System "discriminates" against Blacks and Hispanics. Are there any other groups that are discriminated against? What is the criteria for this "discrimination"? It cannot be dark skin colour because doctors I mean Indian Americans out earn virtually all other Americans, have darker skin colour than many blacks, and are not "targeted" by the police. What is the criteria for this discrimination? Who decides which groups are "discriminated" against?
I know of one case where an Indian was mistaken for Black and brutally beaten by the police but there was no "Indian Lives Matter" movement for him even though he was truly innocent and docile. He is paralyzed for life and all charges were dropped against the cops. We are considered "invisible" in America because our dark skin refutes the hypothesis that it's all about skin color.

THE SYSTEM is rigged against everyone in some way or another
