#avocating

First of all, I am a victim of racism and micro aggression all the time and it fucks me up. It like I thought you were my friend but then you do fucked up things you know I hate. A white "friend" always greets people with "helroo". The Asian stereotypical accent(they also do it with other things). Then they bring up stuff about me seriously being offended by the style and makeup for a play because they appropriated Asian culture without even research(geisha wigs) and then paints the actors eye to be more closed, upturned, and slanted. They also undermine me and my work/knowledge.

Next is the a theatre world thing but they dint cast asians generally. They have problematic play the consist of asians if they do. They use white actors to portray Asian characters. 2 Asian actors have only won 3 tonys. At my college, I am a performance major and I havent gotten cast and it is frightening cuz I cant graduate if I don't have at least 1 years of performance.

Lastly, we are never thought to be oppressed. We are never thought to be a minority. We are never remembered that we were called colored too. Blacks and asians took two different ways to respond to inequality. Blacks marched, protested, and rebelled. We just were more scared of dying and our kids being hurt so we didn't do that, we just followed and didn't speak. I dislike when white or black people advocate for equality but just for the equality of blacks. I dislike that the term of a diverse movie/tv show/play is when there is several African Americans but no other races. I feel like I am criticize for being Asian but never allowed to feel that I am oppressed.
