Email: Remembering Heather Quan (1985-2006) [5.11.2022]

Although Ryan Waller was shot in the face (and ‘brain’) and survived with a severe brain injury for a number of hours afterwards (the Coroner stated Ryan’s jaw was broken after he was shot in the face – presumably when the Police tackled him to the ground upon arrest) – Heather Quan was shot in the head and immediately killed by the two Hillbilly-type characters who invaded their home on Xmas Day, 2006! Her story is always treated as subordinate to that of Ryan – and she only seems to exist (as a validation) via her association with Ryan (this is not the fault of Ryan or his family – but US society as a whole). It is nothing new – I know – but the day we stop caring about the racial bias is the day US anti-intellectualism finally triumphs through the removal of all obstacles to its dominance!

Chinese Structural Biologist Yan Ning Will Return to China to Establish Medical Academy (2.11.2022)

In 2014, Yan’s team analyzed the three-dimensional crystal structure of the human glucose transporter GLUT1 for the first time.

Then she was invited by Princeton to take up the post of Shirley M. Tilghman, Professor of Molecular Biology, in May 2017, and held a concurrent post of professor in Tsinghua at the same time.

In 2019, she was elected as a foreign member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences for outstanding contributions to research. She became a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences two years later.

Titanic: No Golliwogs Were Saved! (27.10.2022)

Walter Lord points out that all Asians were assumed to be ‘stowaways’ – and ‘Japanese’ for reasons not entirely clear (I have written elsewhere about the eight ‘Chinese’ passengers aboard who were technically ‘British’ subjects) – with the ‘White’ British expressing dislike for the twenty or so ‘Italian’ waiters working in one of the special restuarants on board. (These men were ‘locked’ into their restuarant and drowned – never being let out). Black people are not ‘toys’ for White children to play with – plain and simple. Imagine teaching your children that another ethnicity is nothing but a passive object that exists to entertain your curiosities, desires and perhaps even perversities! Even today in the UK there are still White people who think these racist dolls are acceptible and even justify selling them in their shops!

Email: Sneaky Chinese Seating Arrangements!

The two other Chinese men went down with the ship and were drowned! When the Chinese survivors got to the US – they were ‘arrested’ (due to the ‘Chinese Exclusion Act’ and the fact the Ku Klux Klan was receiving tremendous local and national support for all six Chinese survivors to be publicly ‘lynched’ for their alleged crimes) and were put into the Concentration Camp kept for Chinese people on Ellis Island – the lesser of two evils, surely! Representatives of the (UK owned) Donald Steamship Company managed to ‘retrieve their property’ around April 19th, 1912 and spirited them away! Ironically, the US government ‘relaxed’ ALL Immigration red tape for arriving non-Americans out of sympathy for their plight – providing they were ‘White’!

Hate Crime Reports in U.S. Chicago Surge! (25.10.2022)

“The fear runs deep through some of Chicago’s most prominent communities: Black, Asian, LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender), and Jewish,” said ABC7 in its report of the data from the city’s Commission on Human Relations.

During the pandemic, Asian Americans faced increased incidents of bias-related attacks, noted the report, adding that eight of the 125 total hate crimes being investigated by Chicago police this year were against Asians, a number city leaders fear is far under-reported.

“The number of hate crimes reported in Chicago increased by 44 percent compared to this time in 2021,” said the report.

The state of Illinois has reactivated a group similar to the Human Rights Commission in Chicago, that is looking at ways to increase reporting of potential hate crimes, and strengthen legislation against offenders, it added.

Titanic: The Forgotten Eight Chinese Passengers! (14.12.2020)

To this end, Donald Steamship Company bought these Chinese people a third-class group ticket – numbered 1601 – price £56, 9 shillings and 11 pence. The ‘Chinese’ names registered on this collective ticket are written in phonetic English and read:

1) Fang Lang

2) Choong Foo

3) Ali Lam

4) Ling Hee

5) Chang Chip

6) Lee Bing

7) Lee Ling

8) Len Lam

Amongst them the youngest was 24 years old whilst the oldest was 37 years old. As dispatch workers (who were sent anywhere at anytime with no Union support or protection) – these Chinese men were made to work more than 12 hours a day in terrible conditions – whilst receiving only one-fifth the pay of that earned by White (Umionised) workers doing exactly the same job!
