Untold History: Are Black and Asian Communities Really Divided?
Moments of Black and Asian solidarity can be traced back to 1869. It's not new or rare.
Unfortunately, media coverage has disproportionately highlighted the division between Black and Asian communities. In partnership with AARP, NextDayBetter explains the history of Black and Asian coalitions in America.
Learning about untold history can provide glimpses of how we can strengthen multigenerational and intercultural coalitions today.

    An intolerant religion founded by backwards people in a harsh desert will always remain steadfastly uncivilized in the face of progress, intelligence and common sense. Why worry about the petty grievances of ignorant men who believe in a man who could not save himself from a cross except in the lines of a fairy tale book written by other men? Ignore these hateful people and turn your energy and attention towards creating supportive and loving environments for our LGBT+ community and youth, who are often stigmatized and rejected at home due to the hateful superstitions of their parents. Not to mention what the Christian (not just Catholic) churches are well-known for getting up to with children, anyway, so looking towards the faith of hate and ignorance is the last place to find a solution to modern problems.

    I felt saddened by the elderly woman at first..then I realized she has support. If anything happened to her, someone would check on her within hours. She is living the way she wants to. She isn’t left behind. She is hanging onto her freedoms for as long as she can. Personally, I wouldn’t want her to live alone BUT as u watch the video, she likes her independence. With that said, check on your neighbors and have a relationship with the elderly around you

    That's the result of a society that literally kicks their kids out of home when they become 18 or after college. They struggle, become easy target for underpaid work, contract debts and of course resent from parents. Later on ce they get old, they cannot expect children to be nearby and be supportive PS: not saying this is HER case, but rhe average "American culture"
