Why We're Racist & How It's Our Fight Too (unpacking mental colonization, model minority myth)

on today's #theAMwithAmy, we're unpacking mental colonization (or colonial mentality), the model minority myth used as a wedge between asians and blacks, why we non-black POC owe so much to black activism, and which areas we specifically need corrective reform/abolition in as of today in 2020.

#blacklivesmatter where ‘matter’ is the absolute minimum.

smol disclaimer: if i got any historical background or interpretation/analysis incorrect, feel free kindly correct me. it’s been 4+ years since i studied any of this in college (studied communications at UCLA ‘16) so apologies if i am rusty 😅 lol
