On being pushed

I really shouldn't use the word "pushed" it's more of a benign encouragement ( Read more... )

Good luck!

Ooh, I like that campaign. *forwards link to debunkingwhite*

Thanks. I liked it too I thought it does a decent job of addressing the kind of racism I have from time to time. Although it is scary reading through the comments on that article now. Two parts hate, one part reaction.

I find it is best to NEVER read the comments on open non-community type places like newspapers and youtube. Life's too short :)

I seen bad things and good things. I just want to try and not judge people based purely on the bad things I've seen similar people do. I don't want to change the world, just myself.

Mostly I just want to document my own thoughts and experiences regarding these sort of serious issues. I don't really want to argue. You are just as entitled to your opinion as I am.

What is SF & F?

Also, I'm the most racist person I know. I actively hate Asians. :P

It's just me abbreviating science fiction and fantasy in some odd way.

And oh noes! Self-loathing! :P

Go for it, I say. I've started paying attention more to it myself. I'd say more but I don't want to start a flame war in your LJ...

Thanks. Indeed I'm not a fan of flame wars, discussion yes, flame war no. Really I'm not trying to argue my point to anyone. I just kinda want to record my thoughts and experiences on it. I'm doing it in a public space so that I'm committed to it; so that people can help me and just generally discuss it.
