Trying to read for 20 minutes a day, Hop on this journey with me! Currently trying to finish 49 books on Indonesia, China, and Asia with a focus on decolonization and challenging/approaching social constructions.
Hello! Reading a thread??? I usually read books but, I will be reading a thread today from Instagram @hownottotravellikeabasicbitch on "Colorism in the Asian Community. In the previous episode, I read through the thread and give my take and personal opinion/reactions to this thread. I want to emphasize I do not know everything and as a non-academic organizer, I have much to learn and am open to this growing process with others!
lmk by DMing and emailing me at fiona.phie001@gmail.com
