April 19, 2017 Yes, while Asians are only 2 out of 5 students in the district, Lowell is almost 3/5 Asian American. The term house n#@ro goes back to the days when the slaves that worked inside the home were not as opposed to slavery because they worked inside with White ppl. Like something out of a Hollywood parody about hillbullies. Those on the field doing hard labor had it harder, but at the end of the day, they were all still slaves and the persons position in the home was tenuous. We will zap comments that fail to adhere to these short and very easy-to-follow rules. Should Asian Americans be proud of their communities, their culture, their hard work and their accomplishments in this country? telling me to read more books or stop commenting. For Collins not to acknowledge why so many Asian Americans, including former allies and endorsers, would react so strongly, for her not to pick up on the raw pain Asian Americans are feeling now this is more than a political miscalculation. The wedding reception played host to a piece of rock and roll history -- one of the first public performances of "Freebird" complete with the trademark extended guitar jam at the end. But i was a social worker and prior educator with spanish language instruction for middle grade. Solving the problem required everyone tucking their rock and roll image under wigs for the wedding ceremony. This is neither good nor pleasant company for Collins to find herself in. i hope her It used to be you needed all As, which requires a very moral upbringing, very focused hard work from the child and good leadership from parents. Collins first number of tweets were totally legit maybe controversial in some eyes, but important to find Asian-Am allies and to call out anti Black behaviors. Are you saying there are only white teachers and resources aides at schools? Its the foundational values and morals (rather than entitlement, blame, and bringing standards down) instilled in these kids that propel them to 95% graduation rate from SFUSDnot White Supramacy values. I expected at least a few paragraphs at the level of scholarship my 9th grader is using in his English assignments. Its hard to imagine any elected official or city leader expending political capital and jumping in front of a bullet in an attempt to nuance this especially when Collins has been part of a Board of Education that has embarrassed the city and enraged many of San Franciscos highest-propensity voters. She is a poor example of the school board and towards the Asian community. The Getty Images design is a trademark of Getty Images. Its a shame that the likes of Allison Collins is what passes as representative of progressive San Francisco. Its a small subset. But Collins is not wrong in saying, Hey dont ignore our struggle! This takes away a vehicle of class mobility to help people who didnt try, and it wont help them, because you just lower standards. Thank you, white people (mb, jim..) for schooling me with your supreme intellect. Its interesting how you want to talk about anti-blackness but fail to mention how the overwhelming majority of attacks on Asians come from blacks, which has been this way for decades. That is the only way we make real change in the fight against racism and I believe thats exactly what Collins tweets were about. The thinking is backasswards. Please contact the developer of this form processor to improve this message. From my perspective saying the truth hurts diminishes the value shes put into her beliefs and priorities of working hard and sacrificing to become a physician and being grateful for the opportunity. This American work ethic is not simply a measure of personal will and action; on top of that, it is used to judge a persons character as good or bad. I even saw it made on twitter when a person that grew up in Asia said these are her cultural beliefs from her countryeducation and traditional family valuesand she did not know them to be White supremacist beliefs until she came to America. Pasta loving kids should be let in-not based on merit, but based on the fact that they happen to love pasta? No. Youre essentially saying Its not racist if its the truth! You sound exactly like the racist white supremacists youre supposedly against. And Collins soon gave them little reason to be. Very amateurish. I appreciate the nuance you showed here. Here, everyone is against Collins. I can understand that there are definitely challenging problems in my community that need to be addressed and speaking for myself I could see how disadvantaged I was merely bc my family and community did not know better bc their focus was on survival by the day having grown up poor themselves and although it was said go to school nobody in my community knew how to successfully enter a profession or, frankly, college. This is like when Megan Markle went on Oprah and read the royal people for her own experience and interactions. So what is the model thats being modeled in the model minority? People have since said that she seemed "slow," but I Notes for ALLEN COLLINS: Allen was enumerated with 6 "free persons of color" in the 1830 Hawkins Co., TN Census. There was no emphasis on it. Call for the arrest of those who destroyed the statues in Golden Gate Park and spraypainted Kill Whitey, and help police track them down and make a citizens arrest (I am 90% sure the person who did this was white, but whatever race they are they should do 10 years in prison for destroying those statues). Diligent is to stay married even if it hurts because thats what hard-working parents do, put their children ahead of themselves and teach kids to read. White, Asian, Black or other. The Collins family first started attending the races when Allen was eight years old and Allen, sitting as high in the stands as possible, would laugh and holler as he pretended to be racing his own car. She did worse than carjack thousands because a stranger said something. She said simply (and I will never forget it because it keeps being so true) well, you know theyre really rather stupid, and that always catches up to them.. Her main mistake was in not realizing that her audience was ignorant and racist., ^ a true masterclass in how to win friends and influence people. The result -- Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd -- started the band on its rise to fame with standards like 'Gimme Three Steps', 'Simple Man', and the incendiary, guitar-driven classic, 'Freebird'. Actually, Medium, your comment is uninformed. (Collins Chinese name, , is pronounced in Cantonese as Go Lai Si. The first character, which is an actual Chinese last name, translates as tall or high. The second translates as to encourage. The last means to think. These are all words and notions that would figure to appeal to Asian voters looking at Board of Education candidates. Its a number of assumptions and expectations that people have towards Asians. Initially the band was named My Backyard, then The Noble Five and by 1968 it was called The One Percent before finally zeroing on the name Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1969. If this work ethic is acknowledged to be true, then someone who is lacking in finances is not working hard enough. Or are we angry and want to punish her and others who mis-speak? Allison Collins married a wealthy white real estate developer. Your email address will not be published. Her inflammatory and divisive rhetoric is intentional. I want to know what really happened when I read a period account and the best way to do that is to be given that account in the language and understanding of the period of that account. Scholars study these subjects **for their jobs** and they have accepted meanings for terms like white supremacy. If you want to talk about race and not sound like the idiot that youre sounding like right now, you owe it to yourself to familiarize yourself with their work. But how ironic it is that she sends her kids to a merit based entrance school. She wont do this because she is extremely narrow minded and hateful. His passion for cars, particularly race cars developed in his childhood and lasted all through his life. A tweetstorm is not a Dostoevsky novel; it doesnt take that much time to read and re-read it. And her response to the revelations are amazingly tone deaf. Then to hide behind her daughter, give me a break. Apologizing means you acknowledge how your words are perceived as hurtful to others. Thank you for acknowledging that CRT is a (profitable) industry. Immigrants prove that. She should step down for being a terrible educator. How does studying = white supremacy? Thats the American way. She married Vernon Eugene Allen in 1970. Black kids will attain equality by not having resentment, putting their heads down and working very, very hard. This hate from her is especially obvious on her attacks on Lowell. So when these expectations are repeated to you over and over, you end up complying with these constant demands and end up being a model minority. You are the enemy of all. She took responsibility and stepped down, which is something Collins is refusing to do I dont see the comparison here. Geoffrey Canada says black kids and parents have to sacrifice as many hours as it takes. Asian-Americans believe in their inherent superiority and goodness. After the band reunited officially in 1987, Collins by then paralyzed could only serve as musical director of the band. Asian Americans have a long history of schooling and testing that way predates any notion of White Supremacy, or White people as an identity. There was the vote to rename 44 schools despite provably shoddy historical research, an arbitrary and sloppy process from the renaming committee and despite the fact all the schools are closed. Yall really need to learn nuance. She needs to resign. Allen's unique, firey guitar playing and powerful songwriting helped insure Lynyrd Skynyrd's place in rock and roll history. She was given many chances and she doesnt have a damn in our meetings. So the masters responsibility for the spreading the disease is all but lost in the melee between the field negros and house negro. Not to mention the treatment of the Bantu in Somalia, or conditions in Nigeria, etc. Collins has been judged guilty of using currently non-PC correlatives in her vernacular. As soon as she had saved enough money, she surprised Allen by taking him down to Sears and ordered his first Silvertone guitar and amplifier. Its in our culture to study hard as a way to get ahead when you dont have money or connections which is exactly where my family started out in the US. Jim Ausman; Oh, please enlighten us, the clueless readers. Who were the perpetrators? (If anything it will increase it, as Willy said above. And the success of Africans and Asians proves whites arent racist. We heard her over and over again Too Many Asians! I *am* saying that if someone is clearly using words the way theyre used in that field, you cant just go obliviously wandering into a discussion and insisting that they used them with some other definition thats the only one you, a dilettante, understand, and then whining about it whenever somebody correctly points out that you literally do not know what you are talking about. Because, deep down, Dodgers fans are good people. You dont. Im not saying American history should be covered up or ignored, but is this the kind of art you would want to hang in your own home? Collins must go, she has no ability to serve SFUSD as a leader. That is racist and insulting towards Asians because it diminishes their achievement, and it is insulting to whites because it assumes we are all racist and insincere in attempts to close the achievement gap, which she is wrong to call the opportunity gap, implying studying isnt a choice and a noble sacrifice, and to help underperforming minorities improve their lives. Let me help you with some context: Asian Americans are the second most likely to vote Democratic after Blacks and overwhelmingly voted for Obama twice ad against Trump twice, so maybe Collins should take her head out of the 1960s and understand this os 2021, and her House N****r idiom is 60 years out of date. I can say that in the city hiring system of HR the positions are largely held by Asians. We are to be judged on the content of our character. According to Ultimate Classic Rock, Collins pleaded "no contest" to the DUI manslaughter charges. Both were 1st in their families to go to college. 12. If you are Black or Latino, you are guaranteed to NEVER pass your 6 month probation as you are looked at as not qualified in the first place, uneducated, a liar and a thief. Character was important as evidenced by Martin Luther Kings famous speech. Dont even try to justify racist, misdirected hate coming from a school board member. She also attacked Lowell because a Pakistani American Senior made a slightly awkward poster. accident. He resides in the Excelsior with his wife and three (!) Well I walk in and I'm introduced to Amie--Allen Collin's first born. I received a class A education throughout my life yet I was in the dark on much of it until this past year. People like this took Tom Sawyer out of school libraries. With this position, this fortunate Asian will have access to the huge stash of opportunities which the white establishment has hoarded. I also want to compliment Korbi Ghosh on the April 9 piece he wrote the sentiment, the logic, the depth of his expression was really encouraging. When minority communities dont support one another, white supremacy THRIVES. It assumes the worst of whites, morally, and considers Asians to be suckers, manipulated by whites. Commissioner Alison Collins has been one of the few consistent anti-racist voices among politicians in this city. I worked with Plaintiffs Employment lawyers who would comment on how surprisingly educated their clients were. Lynyrd Skynyrd had met a sudden, tragic end. She said the Asian Americans dont need help! Parents want kids to excel. There were drugs, infighting, literal fights, and the plane crash that ended the band and took the lives of two of Lynyrd Skynyrd's members. His children Allison and Amy what you see today- a disturbing number of anti-asian. Nope. Try listening. Americans are pretty deliberately clueless about Black History especially militant Black leaders like Malcolm X. If you want more diversity at Lowell, you should focus on the elementary schools to make sure all kids get the same opportunities and levels of education. They sacrificed stress pressuring their kids to go the extra mile to ensure they dont get any Bs and study for tests in the summer. Take out of context, nuance, need to read Malcom X, blah, blah, blah. Thats exactly what the racist Allison Collins did. Of course! Feinstein is being cancelled and the school name will be removed. Enjoying the misfortune of others seems to cut across many barriers, including intelligence. She has too much pride to admit when shes wrongthat was evident even before those tweets came to light. Then it all fell away at 6000 feet above a Mississippi swamp. She literally calls anyone who thinks Lowell provides poor students in SF a high quality college prep program on par with SI, University et al. He later plead no contest to DUI manslaughter. never found any evidence to support that except for the I dont waste my time twittering, so I never saw an twitted death threats. If you still cant see why her use of that term to disparage an entire race is divisive, reckless and hurtful, especially in a contemporary context, please kindly join Ms. Collins in attending some sensitivity training as you two seem afflicted with the same disease. Go to China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, The US, Canada.anywhere in the world with a Chinese culture and you will find a familial devotion to education as a means to provide financial security for your family. But it was also a political miscalculation. The accident killed three band members, Ronnie, Steve Gaines, and Cassie Gaines while Collins suffered two broken vertebrae in his neck and serious damage in his right arm. Saul spares Amalek and some sheep and the like and God rebukes him: Cause, Saul wasnt murderous enough for the God of Israel. Less than ten minutes later, the plane crashed into a densely wooded thicket in the middle of a swamp. In 2006, every last vestige of the City Family lined up to decry newsman Pete Wilsons harangue regarding gay supervisor Bevan Dufty and his lesbian friend Rebecca Goldfader having a child. She punished thousands of people at Lowell for this. Their one release, Here, There and Back, met with considerable fan approval, but little support from MCA Records which dropped the band shortly after the album's release. Affiliate programs and She has no curiosity as to why Asian Americans have 30% higher income than whites, more wealth, over 50% more income after a generation, 1/7th the white murder rate, under 1/7th the white homeless rate, under half the white rate of imprisonment, lower suicide rates, longer lifespans, lower divorce rates and other markers of success based on personal choice.

Learn More{{/message}}, {{#message}}{{{message}}}{{/message}}{{^message}}It appears your submission was successful. This is just a clueless interpretation of both Malcolms quote and the way Collins deployed it. Collins tweets hit the mainstream at the height of a wave of anti-Asian hate crimes, presumably fueled by use of terms such as Kung Flu and Chinese Flu by Trump and his gang. MB, you cant just get offended when anyone discusses work and accuse them of thinking blacks are lazy. If parents dont make enough money, then there has to be a system to get them back on their feet. Had there been higher profile solidarity between Asians and Blacks on issues of shared experience of racist oppression, then we might not be here. Does she have a place in mind where she would prefer Asians to live and go to school? I never heard Trump DENIGRATE a race. Who are stereotyped as hard working? If America prevents blacks from succeeding due to racism, you wouldnt see incredible success from African immigrants who believe they control their destiny. You cannot put an entire group on blast when she cites a few incidences. https://www.sfweekly.com/news/tenderloin-community-demands-apology-from-hisashi-sugaya-for-drug-remark/. I share many of the sentiments expressed here on all sides, but it got pretty ugly at times. If you do not want your children to be competitive on the world stage, please go ahead, the rest of the world benefits from less American competition! It is cowardly to make excuses She has actively pursued policies that specifically hurt Asian American children more than any other group. Overall white students make up 11% of the high school age student body. He married (1) RACHEL NICHOLS Bef. She is an arrogant, ignorant hypocrite, and she AND other members of the board of education who are standing by her have no business representing us and ought to resign. Has Zhou been forced to resign from any city position or banned from any future political runnings, I think not. She isnt sorry at all. Asian Americans in San Francisco, even those inclined to support Collins or at least elements of her worldview would never be a less charitable audience. She didnt get drunk and say something insulting to Asians which didnt represent what is truly in her heart. Mission Local produces enterprise-reporting on SFs most critical issues: police reform, corruption, public health, housing and homelessness. A house negro enjoys all the privileges of working in the masters house and would do anything to keep their position. She has been very, very rude to Josephine Zhao on multiple occasions in public, at meetings, and said disrespectful things about her. Collins intentionally abuses and misuses the term white supremacy. Seems like whoever is fighting to keep them up is forgetting this is the place where kids are SUPPOSED to spend 7-8 hours a days 5 a week. We are people , right? beauty in diversity, just learn to coexist. As America is dedicated to anti-racism, that is a serious threat and lives are ruined over accusations of racism. In the Lynyrd Skynyrd biographyWhiskey Bottles and Brand-New Cars: The Fast Life and Sudden Death of Lynyrd Skynyrd, author Mark Ribowsky illustrates that Collins suffered from terrible survivor's guilt and PTSD that lead to severe nightmares. This shows a really problematic way of thinking about Asians. Why shes speaking on our behalf? This city has been very unfair to minorities with the gentrification of many neighborhoods and the exuberant rents. Whats even more sickening is that Zhou still holds her position with the California Civil Grand Juror Association as director of public relations and is a behavioral health clinician (sounds like Zhou is in need of behavioral health therapy herself). Personal tragedy struck again on January 29, 1986 when Collins new Ford Thunderbird crashed into a ditch. This early fascination lasted throughout Allen's life -- he later collected an entire fleet of collectible and performance cars that was one of his proudest possessions. Once, doing field research at Clemson we were working with a class of students who were morons at best, the genius teacher on site had rigged up a series of motor responses to flash cards to teach work skills. His girlfriend died, and he was left paralyzed from the waist down. Nope. I personally find it harmful to teach children that working hard and persevering are bad things. Thats lazy. Nice to know she stands by those racial stereotypes. Black boys with fathers do far better than white boys without, so encouraging marriage, long study hours, reading, sacrifice and respect for hard work and the scientific method should be a hallmark of any decent educator. No need to overcomplicate every issue you come across. Based on her actionsnot just with these tweets, but in all the board meetings, in person, and on social mediashes someone who believes her perspective is the correct one, naysayers be damnned. How did the trauma of the car accident lead to the death of Allen Collins? Tragedy struck Allen's life again just as the Rossington Collins Band started.

Even if she was a victim in the past, it doesnt give her anymore right to hurt others. 4. We have to think about how different communities learn and the different biases.

Its obvious the many millions of successful African Americans became so through hard work and wise decision making. Like those schools, Lowell performs so well because its creaming its not high-performing because its standards are exceptionally high, its high-performing because its skimming the highest-scoring students in the city off the top . Maybe Commissioner Collins deserves the same opportunity be given credit for what she has done and to work with others to learn from past mistakes. Do not denigrate the curiosity, dedication, assiduous work ethic, talent of these Lowell students. Well played. Humility in knowing that I aint all that, that you dont know it all and that your successes in life were the result of others helping you out along the way. Theory #3 is effort. Ideally black kids will sacrifice everything possible timewise to prove they want to learn and are as smart and moral and hardworking as these immigrants. We need to focus on habits, not accusing others of racism. In fact many Asian American[s] actively promote these myths. i have an M.D. This saw him garnering several collectible and performance cars later in his life. Allen Collins married Kathy John in 1970. Asian-Americans like this dont show up to protests when unarmed Black folks get shot dead. One More From The Road.

By the definition you guys are provided why are Ados not running the county their community was brought here from Africa to do break backing work to build the county . I want more black and Latino kids at Lowell. It is the fairest and purest form of meritocracy there is. If she were sorry shed support KIPP and charters, restore Lowell, and spend some of the salary increase money on tutors for black kids who will encourage them to sacrifice as many hours as the average Asian kid does. The entire reason I brought this up in the context of this discussion is that people are getting the vapors over Collinss use of white supremacy, and then responding to her as if Collins had meant THE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DEFINITION that happens to be the only one they are familiar with. Who are people suspected of laziness because their average family wealth is about a 10th of that of white families? The mayor has the power to 16% of whites do, in CA. Zhous billboard was vile and a reprehensible political ad that invoked racist, misogynistic and sexist perspectives. Collins and any City leader that supports her, including our friends and the NAACP that do not realize their support is NOT advancing our overall POC advancement, need to resign and let new unifying leaders start over. Dont be so lazy. Good person vs bad person. Discussion in 'Music Corner' started by thebeatles67, May 26, 2009. Great work, Joe. This is not skimming.
