generally

ppl should expect me to talk a lot more about orientalism

given that it is the best theoretical framework, that i currently know about, for understanding how Asians are oppressed within white supremacy

and since Andrea Smith”s three logics framework has also given me a way to integrate this with my belief that anti-Blackness and settler colonialism are critical to decolonization

i finally feel like i have a robust place from which to discuss all of this and how it inter-relates

so i can try and discuss orientalism and Asians in white supremacy without contributing to Indigenous erasure and anti-Blackness

this is my hope, anyway
