Protest Purikura: the fight for justice and glitter

You know, I will never understand why no one has any problem studying brown people as exotic animals through Anthropology and Archeology….and Ethnic Studies is under attack…What are you afraid of?

Oh “color blindness” as excuse to ignore what makes you uncomfortable about the complex world we live in. Like Angry Asian Man says here “Ethnic Studies are American Studies.”
