President Biden not planning to visit California to condemn the act, apparently deeming it a "love crime."

He had a dispute with the Taiwanese community and it is being investigated as a hate crime.

Racism isn't isolated to white people.

It's been known for years upon years. At least for people whose worldview isn't contained inside a sealed hermetic bubble of centered Whiteness.

not a knock on you. But the history months of every culture and community outside of the prevailing hegemony are not new things.

Renny Ruse's daily whinefests of everything outside of cis male Whiteness making him miserable does not give him any bonafides or absolutes. Let that motherfucker cook in his own stew.

Well, we all know about Black History Month, but any others are off the general public radar.

Well, we all know about Black History Month, but any others are off the general public radar.

It's been an official heritage month since 1990. It was celebrated informally as a week-long heritage event since the mid-'70s.

I've known about the month celebration of it since it began. I was a young college newjack at that point.

Black History Month gets the most press because it was the first. Also because when Black people do anything in America during any era, it makes White people jump, so they get all the eyeballs turned on them.
