#Trans people, #women, people of color [#POC] are being erased

Across #Trump’s federal government, agencies have been busy scrubbing photographic and written references about women, people of color & members of the #LGBTQ+ community from their websites.

"Chinese and Indigenous communities have shared histories. We faced hardships together while mining for gold in the British Columbia gold rush and experiencing the rugged Canadian weather and terrain.

There are many graves on First Nations territories when Chinese people died from the flu and from the building of the railway, crushed by landslides, collapsing tunnels and premature blastings (Mittelstedt, 2014). The First Nations communities took in the Chinese railroad workers and care for their grave sites to this day (Mittelstedt, 2014). We enjoyed economic success and partnerships that were respectful and mutually beneficial (Ma, 2012). Chinese people leased lands (on First Nations) to farm and then hired Indigenous people to help farm the land (Mathur et al., 2011, p. 74). The Chinese built elaborate gold-mining operations among First Nations communities and perhaps most importantly our communities intermingled and there were many marriages between Chinese men and Indigenous women. In 1891, 98% of Chinese people in Canada lived in British Columbia (Barman, 2013, p. 1), which explains why there are such intimate ties between Chinese people and our First Nations communities in British Columbia. Unsurprisingly, one in six Chinese men created a family with a local Indigenous woman (Barman, 2013, p. 1)."

“POC” was targeted because they thought it meant “people of color.” It stood for “point of care” in medical emergencies: This Is the Research Ted Cruz Calls “Woke.” — ProPublica

My answer?
Yes, yes they are.

The Credentialed Managerial Class, #white, aspirationally white #PoC, #Black and #indigenous are in an undeclared war against the working class poor they claim to serve!

They don't give a damn about those who can't pass their purity test for the neoliberal value proposition, and that includes the millions of European-Americans desperately clinging to the delusion of #whiteness.

A higher seat at the table, of an unjust system, is not progress, it is a bribe!

Far-right, reactionary influencers are already blaming the #CaliforniaWildFires on #DEI hires. Don’t be fooled, this is #SystemicRacism raising its ugly head - the implication being #POC are all incompetent and can’t be trusted in leadership positions. It’s horse shit of the nastiest kind. #Racism #Conservatives #Republicans #FarRight #USPol #politics

Beim Lesen des zugehörigen Issues zur Signaturproblematik bei F-Droid habe ich den Eindruck, dass das Problem dort entweder nicht verstanden oder heruntergespielt wird. Das ist besorgniserregend.

F-Droid hat offenbar erhebliche Probleme bei der Zertifikatsprüfung von Apps. @IzzyOnDroid hat dieses Thema bereits im Beitrag »Android-Apps auf dem Seziertisch: Eine vertiefte Betrachtung« kurz beleuchtet. Dazu existiert auch ein Proof of Concept (PoC) namens F-Droid Fake Signer.

Since I’m not on the hellsite and I don’t really operate in those circles, can anyone tell me: are the #RWNJs losing their shit over the green witch in the #Wicked movie being played by a #POC?

The only thing I can say to my #POC family and friends is that WYPIPO vote, and you don't.

That's why things are the way they are.

Background

I am white, hence born to privilege in a society that to this day remains structurally violent and systemically racist toward all non-white and minority populations.

Help with English vocabulary!
I want to describe this character as having hair like an afro, but very short.
When I think of "curly hair", I imagine large curls. Frizzy hair is closer, but it's still not curly enough to become an afro. What is the word to describe a kind of hair that "could become an afro"?

Boost to help extend my reach, so I can potentially make friends

Alright, proper intro:

Hii, call me Krystal

I'm 20-years-old, autistic, Indigenous, transfem, and Two-Spirited.

Some of my interests include mlp, Linux, philosophy, and experimental indie games

I'm also a bit of a furry

Wanna be friends? I'm mainly open to other trans PoC, between the ages 19 and 21. White trans people and/or 22-year-olds are fine, if I get to know you well enough
