That time a friend tried to describe me on the phone to someone who needed help remembering me,

and she was going this height, wears this jacket, hair this short, just getting more and more frantic,

So I jump in “Asian!”
“Ohhhhh ya I know them. What are they up to?”

“Asian” is not a slur, people.

Stop assuming it makes me feel bad to be called Asian.

Better yet, stop assuming it makes me feel bad to be Asian. #Asian #APIFedi #AsianIsNotASlur
