I worry every day about my mother, a Chinese-American who is legally blind and extremely hard of hearing and in her eighties, who speaks with a clear accent.

It will not MATTER to a fucking ICE officer that her accent is because she was born in Hawaii.

My fellow Asian Americans, we are not white. They cannot tell us apart. They do not think we belong here, no matter how many generations we have lived here.

In the 1870 census, Boise, Idaho was almost 50% Chinese. Just...think about that. Think about Boise, Idaho today and what you think about it racially.

What happened after that was, to put it bluntly, repeated violence against the Chinese population in the West.

I wrote this poem as an homage to Baldwin and to hear it being sung across the world or read in protests has been my own guiding light of hope.
