So i've been reading up on Asian American history. Not the fantastic stuff we know about inventions, medicine, philosophy and more. But some of the darker stuff not a lot of us know about due to white washing and censorship of "US History". A thread:

It’s been a horrible week, especially for the most vulnerable among us. If you want to help #stopasianhate visit gofundme.com/aapi to support families affected by the racist violence and organizations dedicated to keeping the AAPI community safe. #StopAAPIHate

Never thought APIA history would essentially be taught through cable talk shows and social media. Thank you amber ruffin, John Oliver (find their videos) and Hieu Ho. 🙏

Hey Brodsky Organization, you have a serious problem at 360 W. 43rd Street. You have a bunch of rubberneckers working for you who could care less about watching someone get the shit beat out of them in front of them. And then close the door on the situation as if they can't be bothered.

“There’s Korea. And then there’s the West,” Steven Yeun says, Zooming from the driver’s seat of a parked car, somewhere in Los Angeles. “And which one are you? Are you both? Or are you between them? I’m just my own thing. I’m my own third culture.” sharpmagazine.com/2021/04/22/ste…

📎 | One of Catalonia’s most internationally celebrated architects, Ricardo Bofill, has passed away at the age of 82. Born in Barcelona in 1939, he is considered one of the most influential urban planners across the world catalannews.com/culture/item/r…

We’re very sad to report that Vangelis has died at the age of 79. His 1970s albums like ‘Heaven And Hell’ and ‘Albedo 0.39’ made him a synth superstar and his ‘Blade Runner’ soundtrack is unquestionably one of the greatest film scores ever. Farewell to an electronic music giant.
