This is still applicable. It’s so weird logging back in and seeing all these old messages and posts. I seriously miss all the friends I’ve made on this website. I’ve lost contact with so many.

when you haven’t been on tumblr in almost 2 years and all your old followers are now too famous to remember you exist

Asian-American NYTimes editor got harassed in “liberal” Manhattan. He was with his family when he heard a woman screaming “GO BACK TO CHINA! GO BACK TO YOUR FU**ING COUNTRY”. His 7-year-old kid was shocked and asked  “Why did she say that? We’re not from China”.. He shared his story on social media and people started sharing their own experience of racism in America. All of us have a story to tell.

He decided to write an open letter to that woman. Here is what he had to say:

Dear Madam:

Maybe I should have let it go. Turned the other cheek. We had just gotten out of church, and I was with my family and some friends on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. We were going to lunch, trying to see if there was room in the Korean restaurant down the street. You were in a rush. It was raining. Our stroller and a gaggle of Asians were in your way.

But I was, honestly, stunned when you yelled at us from down the block, “Go back to China!”

I hesitated for a second and then sprinted to confront you. That must have startled you. You pulled out your iPhone in front of the Equinox and threatened to call the cops. It was comical, in retrospect. You might have been charged instead, especially after I walked away and you screamed, “Go back to your fucking country.”

“I was born in this country!” I yelled back.

It felt silly. But how else to prove I belonged?Read more here
