On the heels of a man murdering 8 people–6 of them Asian American women–to eliminate his “temptation” for a “sexual addiction,” can we stop and read this?
There’s more to the Atlanta shooting than misogyny–there’s racism, the fetishization of Asian women, a growing wave of hate crimes, but I just need to say: Women are not the problem. Asian Americans are not the problem. The problem is white male domestic terrorists, and I hope we can treat this guy as such.
