Your Asian Sure as Hell Wasn’t Quiet

poster created by www.resistracism.wordpress.com

The image above is an oldie but a goodie, and I’m really feelin’ it today, at the close of the first week of the new year. I’ve got a couple of dozen resolutions for 2012 written down, but the biggest one on my list is to embody at every opportunity the sentiment expressed in this poster. It’s to empower myself and others to make noise, speak our truths without fear or care of repercussions, to make statements that make people listen.

I think there’s a little girl with a chili bowl haircut in all of us, yellow or not. And she’s saying, “Stop looking at my helmet-head! Listen to my damn message!!!” I’m going to relinquish some control to my inner-angry-Asian-girl-child this year. What about you?
