      Another very strange thing going on is this obsession with people of colour and where we may be from. Names don't always indicate where we're from, especially if our people were colonized. Still what has been interesting is people assuming that they know where we or I am from. 1/

      It's a type of objectification. Mixed race people often read racially ambiguous so it's hard to tell where we are from. This is also another form of othering we experience as we navigate the world, sometimes being neither here or there, as we try and pin down our identity. 2/

      We do expect this sort of othering and obsession from the far-right, but within academia or other fields/jobs we often get judged by our names or ambiguous appearance. The lighter the better is often how it goes because those are considered "safe" minorities. 3/

      Even for those not mixed, they are often still judged by their names. There have been plenty of studies on this. The currency of a 'Smith' or a 'Johnson' or a "Dave" will go further than a more "ethnic sounding" name even on a resume. 4/

      Just some musings about how PoC with different backgrounds navigate the world or had their names and their entire pasts erased through colonization or migration and yet people will either still judge you by your name or obsess over it. Ask why that matters? 5/

      Also it's surprising and not surprising that certain people in our academic neck of the woods are fixated with my MIXED heritage, particularly a white cis- guy who pretended to be a gay woman from Damascus. My BLACK grandma wouldn't even waste time on your lying ass. 6/pic.twitter.com/0hkl8BQwQA

          Oh yes. Around, stalking BIWOC, and now is pretty much alt-medieval type. He creates alt-right puppet accounts, and makes anonymous white supremacist comments on various comment threads in articles about me. He is textbook white toxic alt-right masculinity.
