Die Blume wächst auf Angel Island, einer Insel vor San Francisco. Auf Angel Island wurden die chinesischen Arbeitsmigrant:innen verhört, wenn sie in nach Kalifornien einreisen wollten. Sie waren in einem Lagerbau hinter einem Drahtverhau interniert, sahen auf das blaue Meer hinaus und sicher auch auf diese blauen Blumen. Schönheit Arbeit Freiheit, die dialektische Note der Hoffnung. Viele kamen durch. Unser Radiofeature hier #AsianAmericans

#Democrats and #Republicans disagree on a lot of issues. But there's a growing consenus in both parites that #China represents a threat to the U.S. And some worry that the rise in #antiChina rhetoric could pave the way for #xenophobia against #AsianAmericans.

Not watching live because I don't have cable anymore, but huzzah to the Academy for honouring Ke Huy Quan as Best Supporting Actor for Everything Everywhere All At Once!
It feels right that his role as Waymond--the kindest and most supportive spouse when the time came for him to stand up for his beliefs, despite what happens in the first third of the film--was recognized for Quan's artistry and preparation after not-acting for so long.

"Inhuman Figures" is a film essay by Michelle N. Huang and CA Davis that excavates three popular science-fictional archetypes—the robot, clone, and alien—to reveal how imagined futures are produced from a long history of treating #AsianAmericans as tireless workers, indistinguishable copies, and forever foreigners.
The video is 24 mins long. Worth a watch.
