I’m on vacation so nothing medical to say but, for the record, I watched Everything Everywhere All at Once. Best picture? Really?

the film is so intentionally constructed. Every detail - from the opening line in Chinese to the final scene - deeply resonated with the life and family I grew up with. It tells a story that has not been told before. *That* is what makes EEAAO Best Picture. 4/

In the same way I learned to read labs in the context of the bigger clinical picture, I urge you to view art in the context of experiences beyond your own, experiences that impact the patients you care for and the students you train (& pls do so before tweeting) 5/5

Increasing police presence is not protecting Asians and Asian communities. Investment in mental health services, public education, cultural centers, BIPOC centered history while working to eliminate racism, militarism, colonialism and misogyny is what's needed. – at Wisconsin, USA

Replying to @UCSFMedicine
@UCSFMedicine activated its racial trauma protocol to allow students to take absences, delay hw/tests. Nothing for clinicals but 1000% better than most institutions around the country who haven't even acknowledged this let alone taken real actions for AAPI students (1/2)

The #TEAACHAct will be voted on tomorrow in the House Committee! Help us bring an Asian American history curriculum to IL schools by taking 2 mins to submit a witness slip by 8:30 Wednesday so legislators can see how many people support TEAACH! bit.ly/teaach2021

I fear that anti-Asian violence will be used as a pretext for more policing. But police have never been an effective response to violence born of hate, racism, or xenophobia.

As some Chicagoans disproportionately reap the benefits of the city’s growing logistics sector, others bear a disproportionate burden.

So I was talking with my mom about #DefundThePolice. And she asked me a question: how could what happened to Rayshard Brooks happen, at this moment, in this uprising? How could police keep...doing this? So this is what I said.
