Please do not diminish the positive work you've done in your life by participating in the erasure of @KamalaHarris' work. As you have lived, when a Black woman is not properly credited for her work publicly, it furthers the erasure, dismissal, & co-opting 1/

Of all Black women. Regardless the immediate benefit you may receive for connecting your candidate to today's outcome, in the long run, it will not contribute to the world you want to live in. 2/

dear candidates,

i would appreciate it if you refrained from referring to people of asian descent as "yellow."

though there are americans of asian descent who may disagree w/ me, i believe that, due to the history of this word in reference to those of asian descent, 1/ the way it is still used by non-asians to refer to an entire diaspora as a single color, & the truth that we have more appropriate words for who we, as americans of asian descent, are today- the word "yellow" should be discontinued when acknowledging those of asian descent. 2/

Thread On Lies:

as we get to the truth,
we must help each other learn
how to determine
if something is a lie. 1/ which will require learning our fears that make us susceptible to lies framed around what we may have yet acknowledged as a fear. 2/

we need to consider the overall deterioration of the population's mental health. consider how the cumulative increase in stress, instability, and violence has impacted us collectively as well as individually.
