Anger "mobilises me to keep trying and continue making work that demands equity. Because at the end of the day, the people who will enact change for women of colour is women of colour. We have to be our own champions. We can’t afford not to be angry." @ms_michellelaw #WOC

What in that article suggested any kind of discrimination had taken place that had materially affected the author and would indicate a need to fight for equity?

Not Materially affected? I mean...what you are saying...is that a constant onslaught of racism and sexism that takes a legitimate toll on someone’s psyche to the point that they fear wearing certain colors and fear dating and fear interactions in the workplace...doesn’t matter?

When she was a kid on the way to school she had kids shouting "China" and "Go home"? While unpleasant this doesn't seem anything more than the usual kind of kind of name calling. Most of us have been physically attacked by bullies at some point as kids.

That was some swift skim reading, Gideon Moss, are you sure you should be extending yourself by typing, having cherry picked one example of many, illustrating the very point you seem curiously unable to grasp? Suggest you lie down & conserve energy. This won't go well for you.

Well I tried to pick the most egregious. The other kids saying she had soft skin and touching her hair didn't sound malevolent. Complaining the boys didn't come on to her sexually is rather bizarre when to do so would probably elicit accusations of harassment..
