your abolitionist practice cannot just be putting ACAB in your twitter / insta / tinder bio. what are you doing materially to make sure your abolitionist movements are not only for aesthetics?
Letter writing can break isolation across prison walls. Join us and @18millionrising @AsianPrisonerSC to write love letters to Patti and Tien, two of many community members who are currently fighting their incarceration and deportation. Register now: BIT.LY/18MR_DECARCERA…
Issue 6.2's A&Q feature--”Infrastructures of Inter-Asian Connection: Scripts, Media, Movement"--reflect on various forms of network and infrastructure in relation to the regional imagination and practices of “Asia”.
It’s been an amazing journey to work on founding of the new academic journal on Indenture Studies. Our first issue debuting in May 2021 honors the legacy of #abolition. It was of utmost importance for us editors to write this CFP for Issue 2 on sexualities and unfreedom. Share!

How can people be motivated to participate in an election if they've lost work, they're being evicted, they're living in their car, they're paying everything they have to stay in a motel? What remaining bandwidth will people have to go out and vote?
Eviction is voter suppression. Poverty is voter suppression. Forcing people to hustle between multiple jobs so they can pay rent is voter suppression. Stealing people's time and labor through patchwork social services and labyrinthine bureaucracies is voter suppression.
Gentle reminder that the Governor of Hawai'i is a piece of shit who has a history of not caring a/b the health of Hawaiians, okay maybe this isn't gentle, don't travel to Hawai'i we're in a pandemic. I'm not arguing w/ white people on this btw. I'm not arguing at all actually.

not here to fulfill Afro-Asian quotas for Asian organizations realizing Black Lives Matter all of a sudden and that there are Black people of Asian descent....
I sometimes wonder if people really think deeply about what they mean when they say “decolonizing <insert thing at university>” Do you genuinely think a non-indigenous university can be decolonized? Have you asked yourself that question?

"Communism is the Horizon, Queer Indigenous Feminism is the Way" was written by a 9 person collective & none of them was Nick Estes. In fact, only 1 of the writers identifies as a man. It was then overwhelmingly approved by our General Assembly, i.e., all voting members of TRN.
My DMs are open, reach out and I’ll coordinate. I’m also happy to share more details about traditional Chinese medicine in general, and the philosophies behind prevention and practices to welcome energy balance to different parts of our mind, spirit, and body.
In thinking about the immediacy of rest and recovery, for Black women activists, organizers, mothers, scholars, dreamers who need this, I can coordinate free traditional Chinese medicine consultations with the women in my family who come from two generations of healers.
There’s so much to mourn, so much to fight for. Thinking about the rage, grief, trauma, light, hope that Black women have to carry all at once, in pursuit of our connected liberation. Beyond the streets and classroom, been wondering what else I can do as an East Asian comrade.

How “social justice oriented” could you possibly be if you think moving to Hawai’i during a global pandemic is acceptable? :)
Last week, i had my students respond anonymously to the prompt "Things You Wish Your Professors Knew." With their permission, paraphrasing the responses:
Something to be said about how from “notorious” RBG to Ruthkanda there’s an instrumentalization of deceased Black people that characterizes the liberal deification of RBG
Twins, Orphans, Angels: “Angels are in important image to end on...the wings also represent twoness, twins or two mirrored halves. It is astonishing that Choi is able to combine so many of the complex strands of these books in a single symbolic figure” woodbeepoet.com/2020/08/24/twi…
Colonizers don’t “Rest In Power.”
Imagine having the audacity of this white man who was appointed as Senior Lecturer (UK equivalent to Associate Prof) - w/o having completed your PhD - at 26 - in 2020 — claiming it is due to hard work and not “luck” And that haters are just ageist
most true theorists would be horrified to find their words morphed into inspirational or faux radical quotes on the internet served up for the purposes of empty performance citation
most actual theorists who are cited and again and again would not have wanted their names taken in vein this way because they would not want to become weaponized as saints or gods in a pantheon of “critical theory”
many practice theory in bad faith as if it were a religion, quoting scripture for every occasion instead of using the existing ideas of many types of thinkers to think through and with, to build new thought.
Virality after death. thinking about the temporal delay in mainstream popularity of Black queer artists like James Baldwin and Audre Lorde. How is it someone can be anointed as the new ‘X’ when they do not even address sexuality inherently in their analytic of race and art?
your abolitionist practice cannot just be putting ACAB in your twitter / insta / tinder bio. what are you doing materially to make sure your abolitionist movements are not only for aesthetics?
Opinion | NYU’s recent suspension of students demonstrates its power to hold students accountable for their actions. This level of accountability must set the precedent for cases of sexual assault in order to create a true zero-tolerance policy. bit.ly/2ZODgJ5
