Now is a moment where many people will be erasing the vast experiences that trans people have while seeking abortion care. The deliberate decision to remove trans people results in a incomplete story about what this SCOTUS decision criminalizing abortion means. #DobbsvJackson

Abortion is healthcare and a human right, despite what the Supreme Court says. Some things we can do now: - Show up at a local action - Donate to an abortion fund - Call your Rep/Senator and demand they codify Roe

this is exactly why police departments need cultural competency to know/understand when to classify a hate crime. when the overlook this kind of hate, it sends a deadly message to us that anti-asian hate isn't real, or that it can be tolerated.

👇🏽The not bought into the "American Dream" and trapped in the binary part.
Replying to @RUNAAPI
3 in 4 respondents believe they’ll be better off than their parents — but not all are bought in on the "American Dream." Too often are Asian Americans trapped in this binary: neither claimed by Asia nor America, not knowing where we belong.

thinking about all the things i wanna say in my first ever twitter spaces convo with @VigneshR & @shawnarchen. i’ve seen countless articles urging democrats to step it up when it comes to youth outreach (y’all *need* to include asians here) — let’s talk about it 😭

Run AAPI finds Asian American youth feel invisible and ignored. Shines light on AAPI youth political involvement and priorities, which are often ignored by the mainstream. asamnews.com/2022/04/04/stud…

"I would've suggested that Tim introduce himself to voters with a more biographical ad," Ohio's @SherrodBrown (D) on @TimRyan's (D) first #OHSen TV ad, which focuses on China and has been criticized by some Asian Americans. "I don't have an opinion on whether it should stay up."

when it comes to oversimplified messaging, that is actually irresponsible and dangerous -- that shows us y'all really don't look at #AAPI as important, democratic voters.
Replying to @kimmythepooh
“When we talk about key voting blocs, or even specifically when we talk about the progressive voting bloc for Democrats as winnable, Asian Americans are never included,” Nguyen said. “And specifically, young Asians are never included as part of that.”
