It has been rough. I feel for everybody stuck here with nowhere to go - some people with kids told us they slept here for two days in a row. My sympathies to Auckland right now - another example that should convince us climate change needs to be taken seriously.
Looking for others stuck at Auckland International trying to head to the states (ORD) // Want to link up and trade info you might have on what’s happening with rebookings? #AucklandAirport
We are the best friends. It has truly been an unprecedented event. Many of the folks we’ve met from NZ have told us they’ve never seen a climate disaster like this. 😔
Appreciate the opportunity to share voice on this. Please continue to raise awareness & take action. Gratitude to my friend Heather Aquino for this beautiful illustration. 💛
“#AntiAsianRacism did not start with the pandemic, but instead has been seeded throughout the very fabric of our country’s upbringing.” — @soukprida contextualizes the long history of #AAPI folx being othered in the US & shares actions toward solidarity. teachforamerica.org/stories/…
Donald J. Trump should immediately be impeached by the House of Representatives & removed from office by the United States Senate as soon as Congress reconvenes.
This is dangerous & unacceptable.
"Queer Asian Identities" is our newest video with Soukprida Phetmisy @soukprida and Takeru TK Nagayoshi @tk_nagayoshi who talk about the beauty of being Queer Asian. Special guests include @samlong713, @poetpedagogue, and @riverXsuh. bit.ly/31YBI16#BreakingAPABias
I truly believe that we (AANHPI) need to continue to tell our stories over & over again because they get fragmented. In our webinar, @soukprida & I hoped to do that well with some history & data dissagregation while acknowledging the nuances in the identity of Asian America.

It’s important we speak out against anti-Asian sentiments and racism now especially, but always.
Thank you for giving me a platform to share a part of my story. Thank you, @estheryjkang, for reporting this.
