"Asia" is often used for shorthand of "East Asia" (China, Korea(s), Japan) unfortunately.
So she's doing the same thing she's arguing about with that one statement. How you gonna call someone out and pull that shit moments later? If Chris must be the ambassador of all people of color, she should use her voice/status to do the same. Please note that I'm not in any way trying to give a pass. It's just that, like I said prior, when we talk about diversity we include everyone. Everyone else talks THEM exclusively.
"We have it harder" is a tired ass line. Damn it..she's gonna ruin SHIELD for me!!!!!!
That's a double standard that many East Asians have with including other parts of Asia into the cultural narrative. Southern Asians have historically been disregarded as even being Asian at all. Probably has a lot to do with the British Empire coming in and lumping people into made up territories and erasing pre-existing ones.
Wasn't aware of that. Quite interesting.
