Sooo we all can agree supreßsing minorities is bad right?

And like there are hundreds of people fighting for minorities right?

Why does no one care about the minorities in south afrìka being suppressed, slaughtered and forcèd off their properties. Why does no one seem to care that thè minority can not get into government?

NO MORE QUOTAS! FOR POLICE OR JAILS!

I feel like we are obviously in a systematic oppressive society that is designed to oppressed people that are already oppressed.

It's to keep the Rich in power of the powerful, and make the people that are low level at a low level. It is to keep societies at a level in order for rich people to maintain themselves in power, or the powerful.

Jails Benefit Private Corporations. At A Cost Of Destroying & Corrupting our people, Once they go to jail, you know they have to join gangs to survive. Turns a normal Law Biding Citizen into a Criminal. Quotas Are Disgusting and Will Lock Up People Who Don't Belong There In The 1st Place.

STEP UP AND LET'S PEACEFULLY PROTEST AND MAKE THIS A PRIORITY MESSAGE TO THE WORLD TO REACH OUT TO ELITES & TO OUR GOVERNMENT. WE WON'T STAND FOR THIS ANYMORE!

Growing up as a kid I moved to a white neighbourhood at a young age. But my mother which I live with would keep in touch with all our cousins and family friends and friends that were black, and she still does. I am currently 17. I try to keep in touch with my black friends, but feel a sense of whiteness in me that I must of picked up from growing up in this neighbourhood. And black people look at me like I am a weirdo, or I’m too white to be around them. But when I am around white people I feel a sense of ignorance and disrespect since I am a minority at my school. I constantly face subtle racism by teachers and classmates. I occasionally go back to the predominantly Black neighbourhood where I made Childhood friends and grew up, where white people are a minority. Since I live in a white neighbourhood, being the subject because of being a minority black, I have seen both sides. White people are scared to say anything or are more quiet and less talkative when they are around a lot of black people, but in my case when white people are around white people “me being the subject” they feel it’s ok to say “nigga” or make racial jokes against me. I have spoken up, but I feel this racism has continued,my hypothesis being that white people lack the education of black and African history and cultures. My question is in the situation I’m in I would like to make more black friends, as I feel more comfortable with them and can share more, because of the cultural similarities. And also let white people know that it is not ok to disrespect the minority and gain respect and make friends, without conforming to white standards.

Hello,

I'm a student in UCSB, and I'm doing a study on the learning environments of the ESL ELD programs and bilingual education in general. I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough as to give me some insight in this by answering some questions I have. Of course, anonymity is fine!

​

1. How old are you?

2. How long did you attend K-12 school in the United States? What kind of school did you attend, and where was it located?

3. How did you end up in the English language program(s) you experienced, whether ESL/ELD, bilingual education, or both?

4. What was your experience in the program like? Could you describe a particular instance or example that illustrates your overall experience?

5. Were you able to use your home language in a classroom setting in your school? What kinds of responses did you get from your teachers and peers when you spoke your home language? If you didn’t ever do this, did other students do so? Can you think of a specific example or instance and describe what happened?

6. Do you think the program was helpful for you? If so, why? Do you wish it had been different in some way? If so, what kind of experience do you wish you’d had instead?

7. How has your experience in the program had an impact on your educational and/or job trajectory?

8. What other questions should I have asked you, but didn’t? What else do you think it’s important for me to know?

​

If you haven't already seen it then you should definitely watch "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" (1993). It's an entertaining film about an absolute legend and I think that it is extremely relevant today. The movie shows how Bruce Lee was affected by the extremely racist and stereotypical portrayals of Asians in American media:

This encouraged Bruce Lee to become the pioneer for positive Asian representation in American media that he became. This is extremely relevant today because of #AsianAugust and the push for more positive minority representation in media that's currently happening. After Bruce Lee there really hasn't been much progress in better representing Asians in American media. Maybe this is finally changing? It also depicts some of the racism that Asians experience in America on a daily basis

Wong Fu Productions' "Asian Bachelorette" tackles how rare and "weird" it is to see Asian males on shows like The Bachelorette. The video went viral and showed that these kinds of things shouldn't be stigmatized or be viewed as strange. Now Wong Fu Productions is releasing their sequel "Asian Bachelorette 2" which should give more interesting takes.

Half-Chinese actress Chloe Bennet who changed her name from "Chloe Wang" because "Hollywood is racist" and who claims to be an Asian rights activist but is dating the known racist Logan Paul. For example, here she is running an AAPI activism group

She's also criticized Steve Harvey and Gigi Hadid for anti-Asian comments, but that doesn't stop her from giving Logan Paul a free pass and defending him... The hypocrisy is clear...

Now see these articles more about her and Logan Paul:

Read this one first and contrast it with the ones below... https://nextshark.com/chloe-bennet-twitter-logan-paul/

What do you guys think? Should we remove her as a spokeperson for minorities since it's clear that she is disingenuous? How can we stop her from marketing herself as pro-Asian to boost her own career while actually undermining pro-minority efforts by supporting known white racists like Logan Paul?

Muslims in the West get to live in a free country, have a job, have a peaceful life just as much as any Christian. Where do people get the idea that Muslims are oppressed here in the West?

There are Christians in the Middle East who have had their churches torn down, had their heads cut off, and basically have no rights in the Middle East specifically by the Islamic theocracy. There are Christians in this world that actually ARE oppressed and have no rights in most of those countries but somehow a Muslim is oppressed just because they get called a couple insults??? Try being a Christian in an Islamic theocracy and you’ll see what oppression really is.

I’m a white teenager who lived and went to high school in a very wealthy area. My area at that time was mostly black, and various middle eastern cultures. I’m personally very interested in traveling and learning about the history of cultures and people. People don’t realize how interesting they are, everyone has a story. Catch is whenever I meet someone new and I try to get a bit of their story like their heritage or even if someone has an accent, I’m in no way intend to be rude but some people take it as such. Is their a better way for me to ask and show my my genuine interest?

I’m not talking about when someone just doesn’t want to tell me but when they get angry (I ask everyone, EVERYONE)
