Biden-Harris and race
On Jan. 6, the world witnessed a shocking scene unfold at America's Capitol. The building, which stood through the Civil War and two World Wars unscathed, was ransacked by a horde of white domestic terrorists, fueled by the big lie Donald Trump had loudly and consistently pushed in speeches and online for months prior to the presidential election: his electoral defeat was a fraud; he lost the election due to a vast conspiracy to change, add, or delete votes and steal his rightful victory.

Dark winter
“I can taste the tin of the sky - the real tin thing. / Winter dawn is the color of metal, / The trees stiffen into place like burnt nerves. / All night I have dreamed of destruction, annihilations - / An assembly-line of cut throats…” -from “Waking in Winter,” by Sylvia Plath

Take COVID-19 seriously
COVID-19 is “…like the cat I have nine times to die / This is No. 3. / What a trash / To annihilate each decade… / Dying / Is an art, like everything else. / I do it exceptionally well. / I do it so it feels like hell. / I do it so it feels real. / I guess you could say I've a call.” - From “Lady Lazarus,” by Sylvia Plath.

Korean fragility
I have experienced more racism and anti-blackness in Asia than I ever have in America. Considering our current historical moment, that sounds counterintuitive, but it's very true.

Past and patriarchy
Along history, forever / some woman dancing, / making shapes on the air; / forever a man / riding a good horse, /sitting the dark horse well / his penis erect with fantasy - Muriel Rukeyser

Reckoning
I lived through the national travesty of the impeachment and imprisonment of ex-President Park Geun-hye. Massive marches throughout the capital, Seoul, and the nation's protests blotted out all other news.

Black pain
In America, the nationwide riots precipitated by the gruesome murder of Mr. Floyd, an excruciating nine minutes of suffocation by police and recorded on video, was preceded by the equally brutal citizen murder of a black jogger not long before it.

To the least of these
Many Americans pride themselves on being Christian, and on the right/far right of American politics, they even go so far as to say America is a Christian nation, founded on Christian values. Conservatives have always been ahistorical to a fault; it's part of their charm.

Worked to death
The burgeoning pandemic of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) sweeping the planet, but particularly in China, Korea and Japan, has laid bare some hard truths about how societies behave and governments deal with crises.
2020-03-08 17:39
Being American
Now, as a lot of Americans who live abroad have experienced, we are confronted with explaining ourselves to others. After all, democracies deserve the governments they get, and U.S. President Donald Trump, as I said before, is a distillation of white supremacy and patriarchy.
