"The video prominently features the iconic Founders Library, the first site at an HBCU to be named a national treasure, which had yet to be constructed. In addition, most of the people depicted in the audience on The Yard are not Black, which belies the institution’s history as one of the country’s foremost colleges with a predominantly Black student body." https://thedig.howard.edu/all-stories/bts-how-howard-university-helped-elevate-korean-culture-and-how-black-culture-influenced-k-pop #aapi #aanhpi #BlackMastodon #HBCU #music #kpop #BTS #BTSARMY

Before BTS: How Howard University Helped Elevate Korean Culture and How Black Culture Influenced K-Pop

Howard's welcome for Korean students in the 1890s led to global history-making, and today the world's top K-Pop group follows in their footsteps.

The SAVE America Act would screw the #AAPI community. Per APIAVote.org: "20 percent of AAPIs don’t have a birth certificate on hand, 14 percent of AAPIs don’t have a passport, and only 8 percent have naturalization papers readily available." Also, "AAPI adult citizens are also roughly two-thirds foreign-born, meaning issues naturalized citizens face would be disproportionately higher for AAPIs than for other communities." TL;dr: a lot of AAPIs wouldn't be able to vote. #uspol
