Really excited to share this Lunar New Year piece that @hettymckinnon and I wrote for @WaPoFood!!
Lunar New Year is celebrated by more than 1 billion people across the globe, and for many, food is a central part of the holiday. @hellolisalin & @hettymckinnon spoke with 5 Asian cooks, who shared dishes from their celebrations. wapo.st/3KyLI4Q

UPDATE: According to Hazel Bryant, who said the 15-year-old was her niece, the teen called the police because someone in her house was abusing her. Bryant went on to say police shot her four times trib.al/qJvsQJQ

It isn’t hard to understand why it’s so normalized for law enforcement to protect the humanity of white mass murderers and their willingness to continually make excuses them.

Since it's the 4 year anniversary of the BBC Dad video, here are some answers to typical questions and a few new pics: A. You staged the whole thing to get famous! Good grief. Please stop sending me your 'BBC Dad Truther' emails. I can't imagine how one could stage something 1
Happy 4 year anniversary to the best interview of all time

We don't want you back. We can amplify our own voices, in fact, we do it quite well.

I am TIRED of people targeting recipe sites about # of ads. This is something that happens on EVERY major website. HuffPost, Forbes, and every site with editorial content. And by the way, we make our content available FOR FREE.
Some personal news! ✨ Two friends and I created a new thing to fix online recipes 😄 recipeasly.com - your favourite recipes except without the ads or life stories 🍩 Feedback and RTs appreciated! 🙏

I share a bunch of Chinese recipes, and yes, I do usually have a few short paragraphs explaining the history of the dish and providing some cultural context. The context and heritage of a dish is just as important as the actual recipe.

The shadiest part about apps like Recipe Easily is that they’re essentially poaching content from recipe writers to build their app without actually compensating the creator.

Since the start of COVID, Anti-Asian hate crimes have increased by 1,900 percent This is what happens when "Kung-Flu" becomes normalized. The #StopAsianHate movement needs more support. Racist violence against Asian-Americans is an assault on everyone.
This time a 36-year-old Asian American man stabbed in his back with an 8-inch kitchen knife in #chinatown. Unprovoked. EXCLUSIVE details. UPDATE victim will live. @NYPDAsianHCTF is investigating as possible #hatecrime. #StopAsianHate #StopAsianHateCrimes #StopAAPIHate

A German radio presenter equating the South Korean band BTS with Covid-19, a virus which has killed 2.5M+ & devastated the lives of hundreds of millions, reflects the *age-old* anti-Asian sentiment called “yellow peril.” Anti-Asian racism is a global, historic & systemic issue.

An Asian Am family new to the OC burb of Ladera Ranch is terrorized at their home by local teens. They tell the police but it's not until neighbors set up a night watch that the family is able to get some sleep. losangeles.cbslocal.com/2021… @CBSLA
