The characters are well written and complex too! :pepeclap: This graphic novel is also having a tv show if you have Disney +! I haven’t watched the show but the book is a 9/10 for me and very authentic to Asian American experience, Chinese American experience, while appealing to everyone and...

Crazy rich Asians? Yeah I loved it! It’s definitely good for anyone Asian or not! I prefer the book to the movie, but the movie is good too. And there’s a lot you can learn about general Asian rich people culture as well as inter Asian racism/classism (tho it’s centered on Chinese Singaporeans)...

@nymphology this will prob help more than me ranting abt anti Asian laws:nekosweat: @ilychan and I posted abt some aapi books

I finished crazy rich Asians (will be back for a review) and started the sequel; and checked out Joy luck club and will get level up tmrw:pepeclap::pepeclap: also currently reading count me in which is sort of a childrens book where a community rallies after a racist attack on an old Indian man...

I think most people wouldn’t make it (sexuality) a big part of their identity if they had smth else that makes them them

100% support :letitfry: :letitfry:

Yeah I know I’m saying most people are one of the two and either hate or blindly love when you should not be on either extreme

I’ve not been cooking bc I live in a hotel:peperain: honestly internalized racism when I was a little kid and the vast underrepresentation of any Asians in media, only as a token or stereotype or their ethnicity’s culture (usually Chinese, Indian, Japanese, the big ones) being their whole...

Usually most Americans either are like “woke” and hate America and are all like America worst country in the world while ignoring all the privilege Americans have and how much better we have than a lot of countries in other continents especially with human rights, public schools, etc! Human...

You’re Chinese? Wait what?

I support! Do it! i mean I’m starting this year and I can’t even write or read my parent’s language:annoyed: you could also see if there’s films you could watch with subtitles or books by people of Ukrainian descent in genres you’d normally read like I’ve been doing with Asians this month

Every country has done messed up things tbh I think what’s important is being able to recognize the good but also criticize the bad and not blindly support bc that’s how we make it better i have the utmost respect for people who are proud of their heritage and culture but also not afraid to...

Ah then I agree you should @nymphology if you can or want to, or especially I hear there’s great Ukrainian food if you want to learn more as a whole if your family doesn’t know much (at least you knew were Ukrainian tho lots of ppl wouldn’t know their ethnicity )

I had no idea you were Ukrainian tbh are you proud of certain positive things about Canada?

So basically race and ethnicity plus parent status (parent beliefs, traditions, rules, that aren’t necessarily specific to the ethnicity, etc)?

Your stuffed animals and other of those kinda purchases show it lol :sanapray:

Socioeconomic status definitely does affect life growing up :sanapray: becoming a billionaire without working a single day by inheriting money would make most peoples lives very different

Yeah I don’t rlly expect people to know by looks the specific Asian country someone comes from, there’s so many and I couldn’t do it myself but also bc of this grouping of “yellow Asians” of east and “brown Asians” of south and southeast mainly but generally other Asians including Arab, bc...

Sad thing is in the US non East Asians, specifically south and southeast have trouble being seen as Asian and are “brown Asians” vs “yellow Asians” but south and southeast Asian countries are some of the most diverse Asian countries but now that I’ve learned all the racist laws america had...

I guess I’m more ambiguous bc asia is so diverse but at the same time in close countries “similar” it’s hard to tell but I guess it would be harder to tell ethnicities from like Western European countries I definitely couldn’t like people think I’m Japanese or like my dad is Chinese but I...
