Interesting. Why do you think that ?

As the current president of the Association for Asian American Studies and as an ethnic studies and critical race studies professor who specializes in Asian American culture, I wanted to address the climate of anti-Asian racism I was seeing at the start of the pandemic. So in April 2020, I created a PowerPoint slide deck about anti-Asian racism that my employer, the University of Colorado Boulder, turned into a website. That led to approximately 50 interviews, workshops, talks and panel presentations that I’ve done on anti-Asian racism, specifically in the time of COVID-19.

The point I’ve made through all of those experiences is that anti-Asian racism has the same source as anti-Black racism: white supremacy. So when a Black person attacks an Asian person, the encounter is fueled perhaps by racism, but very specifically by white supremacy. White supremacy does not require a white person to perpetuate it.

Where we are.

I will be polite as I can be.



First I read "critical race studies" then " So when a Black person attacks an Asian person, the encounter is fueled perhaps by racism, but very specifically by white supremacy. White supremacy does not require a white person to perpetuate it. "


All I can politely say is BULL CRAP!!!!!!!

I guess you don't watch news. The news with actual camera film from the recent attacks.

White supremacy is such a problem that dark skinned immigrants can come from India and out-succeed Whites in every metric except for sports and entertainment. Indian-Americans are non-existent in American sports so we need to start an affirmative action program for that.

Democracy demands identity-politics, and Asians might eventually outnumber blacks.
