Hawaiian pizza is not a thing that most people like in Hawaii (I personally think it’s fuckin disgusting)
Pineapples are South American (possibly Brazillian) notHawaiian
Wearing a “Hawaiian” shirt to a party does not automatically make it a luau nor does it make you Hawaiian
There is a difference between “Hawaiian” shirts and Aloha shirts
Authentic Hawaiian lei are made out of actual flowers and not that fucking neon plastic shit you haoles keep wearing
Hawaiian is an actual race, therefore not all people from Hawaii are Hawaiian.
Hula is a fucking hard thing to master. Just because it looks pretty doesn’t mean it’s easy.
Hawaii is an illegally overthrown country that had it’s sovereignty violently ripped away from it in 1893 when our queen was held captive in her own home.
There is so much more to Hawaiian culture than this stupid neon beach party pineapple grass skirt tiki bullshit that you all keep spreading around.
– It was a pack of 15 people driving cars/trucks decked out in confederate flags, banners, and US flags. All 15 are being brought to justice, and this is just the latest news on the whole debaucle. – They did this in a predominately black neighborhood. – The caravan passed a public park, and these two schmucks decided to take a detour over to a group of people having an outing there. – These people were a black family having a birthday party for their kids – The witness concensus of what they did when harassing the party was “yelling racial slurs and displaying a crowbar, a knife and either a rifle or a shotgun". – Threatening the lives of children likely earned some brownie points with the judge and lengthened their sentences. – Georgia has some strict laws regarding gang activity, which applied to a large group of armed individuals actively setting out to harass a community with very openly racist motivation. – On top of the sentence, these two are also banished from the county this incident occurred in. This means they’ll also have to sell or give up property they own. – I’m seeing a lot of people try to argue this is unjust because they have the right to ‘freedom of speech’, but I hope that’s just because these people defending it haven’t read any of the details, just these shitty “confederate flag incident” titles that don’t exactly explain someone leaned out of a truck with a large weapon and shouted terrifying things at children. This is not freedom of speech, it is domestic terrorism, and was labeled as such by the police.
Inciting Terror, real terror, aiming weapons at people, driving threateningly, that is not your right to freely speak your mind.
“People in Hollywood, particularly, change their names all the time. This can be to avoid sharing a name with another famous celebrity, to give yourself a cooler name, or to make yourself more marketable by covering your ethnicity. It’s why Ben Kingsley doesn’t go by Krishna Bhanji, and why we know the name Rita Hayworth and not Margarita Carmen Cansino. Would we still love and know Natalie Portman if she was still Neta-Lee Hershlag? I don’t fault any celebrities who have or want to change their name, only the industry that seems to equate whiteness with both marketability and some kind of default.”
White female leads in movies are not at all groundbreaking.
White women need to stop this lie. Yall have been included in, and have been starring in everything since the beginning of cinema.
Call me when Native American women and men are featured as stars in TV shows and movies.
Call me when we see Western Asian people portrayed as anything other than terrorists.
Call me when we see East Asian women playing roles that aren’t Dragon Lady, China Doll and Tiger Mom speaking broken Engrish.
Call me when Asian men are romantic leads PERIOD.
Call me when Latin@ folks aren’t maids, gardeners, thugs or spicy Latin lovers.
Call me when we actually see Black women getting to show the fuck up in science fiction and fantasy as leads as BLACK WOMEN and not painted or cgi aliens.
White women on the screen are not groundbreaking. Yall are the status quo.
Bringing this back because they would literally spend millions to make technology to make a white woman “look Asian” than actually hire Japanese actors to play the fucking part of a Japanese person.
White women leads are NOT REVOLUTIONARY. They are just as complicit in white supremacy as white men.
