"My children aren't half Athabascan or half Filipino. They're 100% Filipino & 100% Athabascan...when we really think about it, it doesn't make sense that me plus my wife equals half. One plus one does not equal half. Racism is so insidious that it got us distorting basic math."
I discuss this & many other issues like internalized oppression, intergenerational trauma, intergenerational healing, etc. in my book “We Have Not Stopped Trembling Yet” published by @SUNYPress.

Oh, & if you point out that we get half our genes from each parent, hence it’s .5+.5 & not 1+1, I just want to also point out that our roots/cultures are WAY more than our genes.
And culture & ethnicity DO NOT equal race.
See my other book “Psychology of Oppression.”
👋🏽 Bye.
