As protests against police brutality continue to erupt across the nation and world, one particular conversation is taking place within the Asian American community: Tou Thao, the Hmong police officer who watched as his white colleague, Derek Chauvin, killed a black man, George Floyd, by holding his knee against Floyd’s neck for several minutes.
Thao’s presence at the grisly scene has sparked significant discourse on anti-blackness within the Asian community. Across social media, many Asian Americans are calling for solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, while others are criticizing protesters for the unrest that’s blanketing the country. These outpours of dissent have rekindled a discussion on the role Asian Americans play in the nation’s deep racial divide.

She works for Vox, an Antifa-Globalist sympathizing Commie fake news outlet. You can’t get much dumber.
Some Asian-student organization at Yale recently wrote an “open-letter” to their parents (usually 1st generation immigrants to the USA) accusing them of traditional Asian bigotry and racism.
The propaganda among our institutions is so deep, you need wings to stay above it.
They prey upon White and Asian Americans. Why should civil society change to accommodate the 5% feral animals that add zero value and only take the lives and resources of the productive citizens.
They need to be eliminated. Sterilize them upon arrest.
African-Americans need to talk about anti-White and Anti-Asian bias in your communities.
The Leftist and their Marxist media that is going all hysterical over the George Floyd, are blatantly ignored the innocent white elderly couple (Paul Marino, 86, and Lidia Marino, 85) who were murdered in cold-blood visiting their son’s grave.Two innocent elderly white people who were “Hunted” and “Lynched” by a “Racist”. Three words that the Liberal media uses repeatedly in the Georgia shooting to enrage a certain demographics to commit violence against innocent people like this. The MSM has blood on their hands. And these two poor innocent victims will not be the last.
Just like they ignored the story this past April about the three innocent white women who were stabbed to death while employed at a Knoxville, Tennessee Truck Stop, by a black male truck driver (he stabbed four white women, three died). Or the innocent Asian woman who was so brutally kicked in the face at a bus stop by a black teen. Because it doesn’t fit their false, lying narrative.
This is the result of 50 years of constant Liberal brainwashing on a targeted demographic to believe that they are perpetual victims of “white people”. By always making a point of hyping and exploiting the far rarer examples of white on black racial violence, while ignoring the by far more common incidents of violent black racism, discrimination and violence against whites and Asians, the Liberal MSM tries endlessly to convince their targeted viewers that the least racist demographics, are the most racist; and the most racist demographic, aren’t racist at all, .......no matter how racist they are.
yep, this sounds like the typical statements of how we need to do soul searching, etc. after some horrible event.
It’s hard to have a philosophical discussion about all of this, while cities are burning down.
U mean they don’t like them either?
Seems to me the only racism is in the Leftistsphere. The Left are responsible for all the dirty, underhanded tricks to keep specific minorities down, and under their control.
It is the Left as in this article by VOX, a publication of the Leftistsphere that race baits. If you don’t see it it is simple. They are the ones dwelling on, making the topic of race the focus of the news. IF we concentrate our focus as they deem we should on the topic of their choice we become led by them down a path they have staked out with their perspectives, their stench. In essence they have already marked the trees, and fire hydrants, and we are supposed to succumb to their will.
Don’t let them succeed in leading the conversation as the conversation is rigged. We have to stay away from them, and their landmine of race baiting.
Many Asians don't trust blacks and they have damn good reasons for having this attitude.
AS a second generation American of Chinese descent, my knowledgeable and honorable parents taught me to stay away from both White and Black devils and to always honor the 2nd Amendment by carrying concealed.
More like the anti-Asian hatred, outright hatred by urban black gangers and thugs. A subject of daily occurrence vs. Korean Americans, Vietnamese- Hmong-Thai Americans and, as in Ferguson a Indian/American store worker beaten and assaulted.
Asian store owners... they see this.
Bigoted comment.
I bet most aren't anti-black and have no need for such a talk.
Isn't that kind of thinking the very definition of racism?
Another segment of the Asian American population which might have a racial grievance with blacks is those disadvantaged by pro-black quotas at top colleges, famously Harvard. Work hard, try to win by merit, get upstaged by melanin.
If Thao is Hmong his family has probably seen 100x worse than any local black has.
Vox, all I needed to know.
Let’s discuss anti Asian racism in the black community!
And anti-white racism in the black community!!
Few people are more inherently racist than northern blacks, sorry.
It’s interesting that the author is a pinay (Filipina). This probably isn’t a politically correct thing to discuss, but where I live (San Francisco Bay Area), I’ve noticed that there’s a fairly large cohort of pinays who are into black men. It’s a free country, of course, and they can date/marry whomever they want, but pinay with black dude is a “thing.” Now at the same time, there’s also a cohort of pinays who are into white dudes. Where the Filipino men come out in this unclear to me, but it does seem that a higher-than-average number of them are gay, but that’s for another discussion. LOL. Flame away, folks.
Groupthink is the real enemy.
