“Cleaning House: On allyship and prejudice in the Asian community”

“I feel like we’re pawns in a larger game. Pitted against each other, to fight for crumbs.

Instructed to hate in order to assimilate, to find acceptance in a world that never even liked us much anyway.

But, to undo our own prejudice means rewriting the history force taught upon us, to learn the other history that exists.

Not just the history that marks us as allies, because allyship is not a birthright — — but the history that makes us uncomfortable and complicit, because prejudice isn’t either.”

Cleaning House

It’s a short comic, but still manages to fit things like “the history force taught upon us” ← wow
