[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Asian who lived in the mostly white VA area for 6 years. All this is stemming from over emphasis of race in general. Whether it's a focus on racism around black community or asians, or even a focus on anti-racism it's all bad. I certainly don't see things improving when everyone keeps making everyone see others as only colors vs individuals. [/quote]
Racism was here way before we talked about it.   Tension amongst different ethnic groups were present way before BLM, recent social justice movements.   Bringing racism to light doesn’t cause it.   And not talking about it won’t make it go away.  Now I’m Latina and I think what doesn’t get talked enough is prejudice among minorities.  Latinos can be racist against blacks, there’s prejudice among different Latino nationalities. Asians hold prejudices against other Asians and other minority groups.  The attacks on the news have been mostly committed by AA youth.   We need to put it all out there even though it is uncomfortable to talk about it. [/quote]
