Eight murdered. Six of them Asian. To Dr. Venus, we need to call it what it is. We need to realize that this is the time to stand together and support each other in the face of obvious White Supremacy. BE CLEAR: WHITE SUPREMACY IS NOT SKIN COLOR. IT'S AN IDEOLOGY. There are Black White Supremacists just as there are Asian & Hispanic White Supremacists. George Zimmerman is a prime example. #riptravonmartin
This week, Dr. Venus turns to her identity theorist side to provide historical facts of when Blacks and Asians have stood together. She discusses why, in fact, this is a racist event, and it's time for White Men to stop taking out their frustrations and aggressions on harming and killing innocent people.
To her Asian allies — Dr. Venus is sorry. She hears you, and she is with you. You are not alone.
Key Takeaways:
[0:58] If you are targeting Asian women and end up killing 6 of them out of 8 murdered, this is a racist act. The mainstream media may call it something else, but Dr. Venus and the truth-tellers see it for what it is.
[4:33] When a White Man is suppressed, he feels that he has the right to shoot up other people. If they can't control their sexual urges and need to make it right by controlling the life of innocent people, what chance do we stand?
[7:12] White Supremacy is so ingrained in the system that when a White Man commits an act like this, they get off the hook easier, usually have a lighter sentence, and are even often treated better in prison.
[8:50] The Black and Asian community has not always been aligned, but we have more in common than we think. We know what it feels like to be hunted and to have White Supremacy looking to kill us, literally. When they can get away with one, they can get away with 1000.
[11:14] You can be a White Supremacist and not a racist because you think you have the right to act out your aggression on someone else. That literally is supremacy, thinking you are better than someone else and have the privilege of taking someone's life because you are frustrated or having a bad day.
[12:33] White Men get grace that Black Men wouldn't. If this shooter was a Black Man, he most likely wouldn't have even been able to get to the next location without being shot down.
[15:41] Sexual perversion does not have you shoot people. What does is entitlement. If you kill people that are not of your race and gender, and it's 6/8 of them, it is an act of racial hate.
[17:12] Even the language around a White Man shooting up a community is different. They call him misunderstood and unstable, while the Black Man is dangerous and a thug.
[19:40] By blaming China for the pandemic and calling it the Wuhan Flu, Trump fanned the flames for White Supremacists to attack Asians and view them as less than humans. It's a beautiful thing to be able to support somebody because you are aligned with their values.
[24:56] What does it mean to stand in solidarity with someone? Does it even make a difference? Yes. We don't have to agree with every little piece to align on standing together. Dr. Venus provides references for you to learn more about the Black and Asian communities standing together.
[32:46] It's important that we know that we are in this together. Dr. Venus talks about her therapist feeling relieved and grateful that someone had her back. Please do that for someone else around you, they may need it more than you think.
