I was speechless after watching that press conference. Thanks
@divafeminist
for laying out what was so bone-chilling about what was named (his "bad day") and what was not named-the misogynistic dimensions of anti-Asian racism. To reckon, we have to denounce every bit of it.

The press conference immediately brought me to your work and how we precisely assess and address violence against women of color. To see these oppressive forces as interconnected, we need an intersectional approach. Thank you for your work always. ✊🏾

It’s why need an intersectional analysis. This isn’t just “violence” that popped out of nowhere, but logics derived from white supremacy, patriarchy, histories of imperialism & war, and legacies of race/gender-based violence in Asia/Pacific and US etc.
