just one example: they offered that SAG background actors must SCAN THEIR FACES when entering the job, get paid for one day (!) of work, and the studios OWN THEIR LIKENESS for the rest of time, free to use it how they like.

How WILD would it be, if the rich CEOs of these companies (& these government officials) were getting *everyone* PCR tested before their big corporate parties, screening ALL their guests beforehand, and taking Covid VERY seriously...while telling you it's safe to go back to work?

Public institutions were the target, not Harvard. What I’ll be looking for are new efforts to recruit minority students, like partnerships with school districts, summer research programs, etc. And new scholarships that take advantage of the “individual experience” language.

affirmative action wasn't filling colleges with folks of color, that ain't the issue. the issue is what it signals - that structurally our systems are unequal. this is part of a larger project to undermine any idea that suggests racism is built into the design of this country

if you need a way to stop pleasing your parents/proving to them you're worthy, find that way. without screwing over everyone else. and just. get better goals, better priorities. ivies are not that important. get an imagination for fuck's sake. and know when to shut up.

and it's really like, how the fuck are you gonna expect solidarity from Black people when this is what you go to war over? a seat at the white supremacists' table? and then to have the gall to lament representation in Hollywood. this asian american politics is a joke
