This is more than just anti-Asian hate. This is also about fetishization, misogyny, exploitation, sexual violence, poverty, colonialism, erasure... ALL OF IT. A white man targeted Asian women working at massage parlors and killed 8. And I don’t even know their ethnicities.

I was speechless after watching that press conference. Thanks @divafeminist for laying out what was so bone-chilling about what was named (his "bad day") and what was not named-the misogynistic dimensions of anti-Asian racism. To reckon, we have to denounce every bit of it.

And I'm committed to continuing my learning, and have been searching for a list of Asian scholars who have been studying the intersections within the Asian diaspora. Please help uplift their work that builds upon this important foundation.

This is our reality that we need to keep making noise about

Asian reporters fluent in Korean who know Atlanta are being told they might be too biased to cover the shootings & I mean who are they, who are these newsroom people telling Asian reporters they'll be too biased to cover an anti-Asian massacre, I just want to talk

Health Update: Today, Dad is being discharged from the hospital to receive hospice care at home. Over the past few days, he has asked us to pray with him often. He expressed many times through prayer his desire to go home to be with Jesus. His family is very sad because we... 1/3

all wanted more time, but we know he has very little at this point. In prayer, he said two nights ago, "I'm thankful for all the people who’ve prayed for me over the years. I'm thankful for my family, that loves me. I’m thankful for the time God has given me, but I’m ready... 2/3

Timothy J. Keller, husband, father, grandfather, mentor, friend, pastor, and scholar died this morning at home. Dad waited until he was alone with Mom. She kissed him on the forehead and he breathed his last breath. We take comfort in some of his last words...
