“Racism is not in your intent. Your intent is immaterial in how racist your actions are. This isn’t about you BEING a racist. It’s about you DOING A THING that is racist. Your intent doesn’t change it. Your ignorance of its meaning doesn’t change it. It’s got nothing to do with you as a person and everything to do with the meaning of your action in the context of sociocultural history.”

I’m just going to reblog this again, since some people apparently need reminding.

Films are subjective, what you like, what you don’t like. But the thing for me that is absolutely unifying is the idea that every time I go to the cinema and pay my money and sit down and watch a film go up on-screen, I want to feel that the people who made that film think it’s the best movie in the world, that they poured everything into it and they really love it. Whether or not I agree with what they’ve done I want that effort there, I want that sincerity. And when you don’t feel it, that’s the only time I feel like I’m wasting my time at the movies ─ Christopher Nolan

Nostalgia is a powerful emotion, and not one that should be easily dismissed or thought irrelevant. Boy Meets World is a television show which gave profound wisdom through the sometimes heartachingly passionate stories in the life of Cory Matthews. Mr. Feeny was more than a mentor to Cory and his friends; he was a father and a friend. This show will always have a place in my heart.

“Lose one friend, lose all friends, lose yourself.”

Yo mama so old, she’s a great source of wisdom and experience.

Lauryn Hill Ordered by the Court to Undergo “Counseling” Due to her “Conspiracy Theories”

The name of Lauryn Hill’s breakout album was The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill but it now appears that the powers that be would like her to record a new album called The Re-Education of Lauryn Hill. After appearing in court for tax evasion, Hill was sentenced to three months in jail PLUS she must attend “counseling” due to her “conspiracy theories”.

According to the IBTimes, Hill told the court: “I am a child of former slaves who had a system imposed on them. I had an economic system imposed on me.” Furthermore, Hill also believes that artists are being oppressed by (what the article calls) “a plot involving the military and media”. Because of these statements, Hill was ordered to undergo “counseling”, which is a way of saying that she is mentally ill and that she needs some sort of re-programming session regain “sanity”.

In 2012, Hill published a thoughtful letter describing the corruption, the oppression and the control of the music industry and her desire to escape it. In one part of the letter, Lauryn states

“It was this schism and the hypocrisy, violence and social cannibalism it enabled, that I wanted and needed to be freed from, not from art or music, but the suppression/repression and reduction of that art and music to a bottom line alone, without regard for anything else. Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual. I Love making art, I Love making music, these are as natural and necessary for me almost as breathing or talking. To be denied the right to pursue it according to my ability, as well as be properly acknowledged and compensated for it, in an attempt to control, is manipulation directed at my most basic rights! These forms of expression, along with others, effectively comprise my free speech! Defending, preserving, and protecting these rights are critically important, especially in a paradigm where veiled racism, sexism, ageism, nepotism, and deliberate economic control are still blatant realities!!!”

(See my article entitled Lauryn Hill’s Tumblr Letter on the Music Business for the full letter).

wow, way to fucking delegitimize and pathologize the experiences of a Black woman by abusing mental health resources and language to avoid the real shit she brings up.

So, apparently reality is a conspiracy theory.

like dave chappelle of all people said, if you say what you think, and especially if it’s the truth, without sugar coating it, you get called crazy and your argument gets thrown out of the window because you’re not “sane.”

So I took a break from studying for my midterm this Thursday and went with Steph to KmB Presents: Voices of Pilipino American History at FACLA in Historic Filipino Town.

Johnny Itliong is the son of an United Farm Workers founder Larry Itliong, and I was fortunate enough to hear him to tell the story about what his father accomplished as a Filipino-American for our community yet he is a forgotten hero unnamed in our history textbooks. Fortunately, I had learned about Larry Itliong, Phillip Vera Cruz, Pete Velasco, Andy Imutan, and more before from my Filipino Heritage class all the way back at James Logan High School. If it was not this newly added class at the time, taught by Ivan Santos, I would be missing a piece of my Filipino-American history. But to hear about it again and to be reminded today of how these forgotten heroes were overshadowed by Cesar Chavez was an enlightening and inspiring experience to say the least.

If you don’t know, there is a reason why there is little information about Filipino-Amercians on the UFW website. There is a reason why there is a holiday to celebrate Cesar Chavez, but not one for Larry Itliong. This reason may upset you. This reason most likely will challenge what you’ve learned in your standard history classes. Cesar Chavez was not as great of a man as you believe for him to be. That knowledge for me was renewed today.

Mexican-Americans were not the only ones behind the UFW movement. It was not solely a Chicano movement, it was also a Filipino movement. Filipino-Americans and Mexican-Americans worked together side-by-side and hand-in-hand. The term United in the “United Farm Workers” is a testament to this, but Cesar Chavez made sure to erase that history. It is time for the forgotten heroes of the UFW to be remembered: Larry Itliong, Phillip Vera Cruz, Pete Velasco, Andy Imutan.

Watch the video.

Do your own research.

No matter how deeply buried it is, the truth will always come to surface.

Thank you, Johnny Itliong, for sharing your story which is something I will carry on for the rest of my life.

Learn your history.

Our history.

Especially for those of us who are Filipin@-Americans who are not taught anything about our history even if it’s a history here in the U.S. The only information we learn in textbooks? Is that the Philippines was colonized by Spain, the Spanish-American War which the U.S. “won” (pft ok) then the Philippine-American War which the U.S. history books, historians, and scholars oh so fondly refer it as an “Insurrection” when it wasn’t, then that the Philippines was owned by the U.S. through the Treaty of Paris. That is it. They don’t even go into how that process happened and all the bs the U.S. did during those times. Nope.

And this part of our history as Filipin@-Americans needs to be listened to and needs to be known. Those voices who have been hushed and forgotten need to be heard.
