      Wesley Yang Retweeted Viet Thanh Nguyen

      Telling poor Asian people that they are racist for wanting police protection from a wave of violence is wrong. How sheltered do you have to be for ethnic studies jargon to be more real to you than the bodies of grandma and grandpa laid out on the street?https://twitter.com/viet_t_nguyen/status/1360101212297699328 …

      Wesley Yang added,

      and Brown communities. Asian Americans need to locate anti-Asian violence as part of a pattern of white supremacy which also targets Black and Brown and Indigenous people. Even if perpetrators of violence are people of color, the solution is not to fallback on racist assumptions

      Replying to @wesyang

      The problem is that it is taboo to even mention the racial and class demographics of the perpetrators. Viet alludes to it in his last sentence, but most left-intellectuals prefer to ignore the real dynamics of Black-Asian social conflict and shift blame to "white supremacists."

      But is it a *Black-Asian social conflict*? You have a series of attacks, and you have individual perpetrators. The answer here, as with police-involved shootings: muster the sophistication to navigate these issues w/o clumsily smothering everything in racial politics.

      That's, of course, true to a certain extent. But the West Coast has long had this pattern of conflict, given the geographical adjacency of Asian immigrant and black neighborhoods. This isn't unique: in my father's time, Irish and Italian immigrants had huge social conflicts.
