My latest for BK Reader is on the ongoing debate over admissions to NYC’s specialized high schools. Councilmembers took two separate actions, while two alumni have their take on how to solve this.

I gave a presentation four years ago yesterday on "Proto-Transgenderal & Homoerotic Traditions in Asia & the Pacific" to a class studying #LGBTQ #AsianAmericans at Hunter College (CUNY); students were really interested to hear about this hidden #history (9.9.22)

How many people would stripping #birthright #citizenship affect? Around 6-7 million US citizens by 2050 and 14 million by 2075. This would severely affect US economic dividend. It would severely affect #Latinos and #AsianAmericans (that's pretty much the point of the #Trump policy).
Americans who were born in the #US to undocumented parents could find themselves becoming stateless if the fascist portion of the #GOP succeeds. #Birthright #citizenship
The conservative legal movement spent decades working to overturn Roe v. Wade. Its effort to do the same to birthright citizenship has already begun, Quinta Jurecic argues.

Asian Americans were seen as outsiders, dreamers, but we were always Americans. Claiming space, striving for justice, for rights for all people. We don't have to be victims- we're not going away. We have endless possibilities! (We really do!)

@viet_t_nguyen: Asian Americans have a choice: victimization narrative, choosing power/being perpetrators, OR refuse the system and build in solidarity and build something new. That was the dream of the student college movements, to be in solidarity. #AsianAmericans #AsianAmPBS

2,000 Korean-owned businesses were destroyed in the 5 days of Los Angeles riots starting, in part, by Rodney King and the shooting of Latasha Harlins by a Korean woman. 63 people died. Trauma hit Koreans after riots, and so many didn't talk about it. #AsianAmPBS #AsianAmericans
