WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON RYU GWAN-SUN

Ryu Gwan-Sun was a teenage, Korean revolutionary hero and intricate figure in Korea’s independence from Japanese occupation. In 1919, political groups disbanded by the Japanese, along with Christians, teachers and students, began to organize for a free Korea. They met in secret, wrote their own declaration of independence and planned public demonstrations of resistance. On March 1st, the first public gathering took place and demonstrators marched through the streets of Seoul reading their demands out loud and shouting “long live Korean independence!” One of the protesters present at the March 1st uprising was the young Ryu Gwan-Sun—a student from rural Korea studying in the capital.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON YELLOW PEARL

Many are not aware that Asian Americans were active in the 1960s and 1970s political art scene. From poets to visual artists, filmmakers and musicians, Asian Americans led their radical voices through the arts. Yellow Pearl was an Asian-American folk group known for its political messages calling for civil rights, racial solidarity and Asian American visibility and empowerment. The group was founded by Chris Kando Iijima, Charlie Chin and Nobuko JoAnne Miyamoto—three Asian-American artists who became known on the activism scene for their politically-charged lyrics and melodic sounds. Based in New York City, the group wrote songs about the Asian experience in the United States, spoke against global imperialism and preformed before multiethnic crowds. They lent their voices to Black and Latino radical communities, and Miyatmoto would befriend fellow Japanese American activist, Yuri Kochiyama, while performing at a Black nationalists event. Their album, A Grain of Sand: Music for the Struggle by Asians in America, touched on themes of identity struggle, along with racial solidarity amongst oppressed peoples. The song, Somos Asiaticos (We are Asians) was written and performed in Spanish to show unity with the Latino communities in NYC, highlighting the common struggles between peoples of color in the United States. With songs like Imperialism is Another Word for Hunger, Wandering Chinaman and We Are the Children, Yellow Pearl was the radical voice of a generation.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON Haunani-Kay Trask

Haunani-Kay Trask is an Indigenous Hawaiian educator, activist, Hawaiian nationalist, author, poet, filmmaker and all-around badass. Born in 1949 to a politically active family, many of whom advocated for Hawaiian statehood, Trask has dedicated her life to advocating for a free and independent Hawaiʻi and to keeping Hawaiian culture alive while brutalized under imperial rule. Trask became heavily involved in the anti-Vietnam War movement while studying at the University of Wisconsin, and she became an active supporter of the Black Panther Party while studying at the University of Chicago. It was during her university studies that she made the connection to the symbiotic relationship that racism and capitalism share, and how the system exploits marginalized communities across the globe. Trask has worked tirelessly advocating for Hawaiian sovereignty, has participated in, and organized, protests for land rights. Trask famously confronted white male anthropologists who claimed expertise on Hawaiian culture and politics and spent years teaching at the University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa on the subjects of Polynesian women, political movements in Hawaiʻi and the Pacific Islands. She is a founding member of the Kamakakuokalani Center for Hawaiian Studies at the university and has written numerous books. Trask anchored and produced First Friday, a monthly public television show highlighting cultural and political issues that impact Native Hawaiians. In 2019, she was awarded the Angela Y. Davis Prize for her work in education, activism and the arts.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON WIFREDO LAM

Wifredo Lam was a world-renowned Afro-Chinese Cuban artist, who built his career around reviving the Afro-Cuban spirit through art. Lam’s father was a Chinese immigrant and his mother an Afro-Cuban. His artistic interests took him to Spain, where he studied under Fernando Álvarez de Sotomayor y Zaragoza—Salvador Dalí’s teacher. His years in Spain led him to a friendship with Pablo Picasso and other famous European painters of the era; he also spent time living in France, where he was an intricate part of the thriving art community. Upon returning to Cuba, Lam began reaching deep into his African heritage, creating figures in his work that fused human and plant elements—influences that came from African poetry and culture. In solidarity with the Cuban Revolution, he gifted a painting for the presidential palace that currently hangs in the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes in Havana. Lam’s work can be found in fine art museums all over the world and he held hundreds of exhibits in his lifetime.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON SUSHMA SHIMKHADA

Sushma Shimkhada was a revolutionary Nepalese sculptor, known for her stunning and creative works. Born in 1936, Shimkhada is hailed as Nepal’s first female sculptor, and was a rebel-feminist and ahead of her time. Entering the sculpting scene as a woman anywhere in the world took courage, but attempting to break into the scene in her native Nepal was a particularly daunting task due to cultural gender expectations and the fact that it was a male-dominated space. She proposed radical feminist ideals through her art, with a special focus on the power of the womb as the center of all creation. The womb was a sacred place that birthed creativity and every woman could reach deep into its divine power. She used her work as a medium of Hindu feminism long before anyone was ready to hear her message. While Shimkhada faced discrimination and hardships in her journey as a female sculptor in a male-dominated profession, she would eventually find recognition, win awards for her work and hold international exhibitions.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON XANANA GUSMÃO

Xanana Gusmão is an independence leader and politician from East Timor who served as the country’s first president and fourth prime minister respectively. He was an active member of Fretilin (Revolutionary Front for an Independent East Timor), a group committed to abolishing the Indonesian occupation of East Timor. In 1975, the Portuguese left East Timor after over 400 years of colonial rule; nine days later, Indonesian forces invaded that island nation. Gusmão was at the forefront of the resistance, spending days walking throughout various villages recruiting soldiers and gathering support from the community. Gusmão would soon use the international media as a means to draw attention to their struggle and inform the world of atrocities such as the massacre of Santa Cruz—the shooting of over 250 pro-independence protestors. Gusmão was eventually arrested and sentenced to life in prison. The sentence was reduced to 20 years, and he was placed under house arrest in 1999. Gusmão was able to aid in negotiations with the Indonesian government that eventually led to an independent East Timor.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON MEENA KESHWAR KAMAL

Meena Keshwar Kamal was an Afghan feminist and revolutionary political activist who fought for women’s rights in Afghanistan. Kamal founded the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA), a Marxist organization that seeks to empower Afghan women in society and encourage them in their radical voices. Kamal started her activism while in high school as students across the country were inspired to join activist movements that were spreading across the globe. Her heart as an activist was cultivated even deeper when she attended university, so much so that she left her studies to devote herself to organizing and women’s education initiatives. Kamal founded a bilingual magazine that encouraged feminist thought. She also openly stood against Russian military invaders and organized the public against their influence. Kamal was assassinated in 1987 for her revolutionary efforts.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON PHILIP VERA CRUZ

Vue Pa Chay was a Hmong revolutionary hero who led his people in a revolt against French colonization in South East Asia—the region was known then as French Indochina. To fund the expenses of WWI, the French began to impose heavy taxes on the countries of Indochina; the Hmong people, who were marginalized within the region, paid the heaviest burden. One of the tax demands of the French government was o***m, and the governments within Indochina put extreme burdens on Hmong people to fulfill the demand. When unable to pay, tax collectors would confiscate livestock and other possessions. Some families were forced to sell their own children to produce tax money and many committed su***de due to the pressures. Orphaned as a child, Chay was raised by relatives in a Hmong village in Northwestern Vietnam, near the border of China. He would eventually marry, have a child and claim that God called him to liberate the Hmong people from Tai and French oppressors; he would do outrageous acts to prove this calling such as making balls of cotton explode. Many began to reverence Chay, and his reputation grew. He began to build a coalition of Hmong nationalists throughout Vietnam, Lao and China, with the aim of organizing a rebellion against the French. While French-sympathizing Hmong considered Chay a madman, Hmong nationalists regarded him as a messiah figure who would restore them to their own kingdom. As the numbers began to grow, the movement became self-sustained with Hmong-made weapons and ammunition. Chay and his soldiers began attacking and won many battles as the French were ill-prepared to fight in the jungle. The French would eventually attempt to squash the rebellion by hiring mercenaries to kill Chay; he was executed and the mercenaries each paid 500 bars of silver. Chay’s bravery and passion for independence inspired the governments of Vietnam and Lao to name a military squadron after him.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON Queen Liliʻuokalani

Liliʻuokalani, born Lydia Kamakaaeha, was the queen and last ruling monarch of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi. She was the first and only queen to rule the Hawaiian islands, reigning from 1891 until they were seized and stolen by the imperial government of the United States of America. Liliʻuokalani ascended to the throne in 1891 after the death of her brother. By the time she would rule, much of the monarchy’s power had been dissolved by a new constitution that favored mostly white wealthy landowners and elite businessmen who resided on the island. In the 1800s, pineapple and sugar production in Hawaii was a booming business; much of the wealth and production was owned by white, U.S. businessmen who were constantly at odds with the Hawaiian monarchy and wanted Hawaiʻi to become a part of the United States to protect their financial interests. When Liliʻuokalani’s brother, David, was king, he was forced at gunpoint by white militia to sign the Bayonet Constitution; it not only limited the monarchy’s power, but also stated that only Hawaiian and white men who were wealthy had the ability to vote. When Liliʻuokalani became queen, she rejected the new “constitution” and proposed her own that restored full power to the Hawaiian monarchy and voting rights for the poor. The audacity of her demands angered the white elite, and they decided that she must be overthrown—a coup d'état was soon in order.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON GIDRA ZINE STAFF
In the 1960s, university campuses around the world were set ablaze by activism for change, anti-war protests and students of color embracing their ethnic identities like never before. Asian Americans were extremely active on the political scene in the United States, debunking all myths of being the silent minorities lurking in the shadows. Built on a coalition of Black and Brown students, Asian Americans were in the front lines of the 1968 protests demanding ethnic studies programs on university campuses. They were arrested alongside Black, Latino and Native American students, and they protested in radical ways across campuses, causing social disruption. The term “Asian American” had just been coined, and Asian-American students were demanding that their voices were heard and their histories taught. They were angry, organized, radical and reaching back deep into their ethic roots and identities. They were not orientals, but Asians loud and proud. In 1969, a group of radical Asian-American students at UCLA created the first Asian-centered radical zine, Gidra—named after a dragon in the Godzilla movie. The publication centered on activism, radical politics, justice and the gentrification of Asian neighborhoods. Its contributors were labor activists, historians and others who were involved in the movement. Gidra addressed controversial issues: they were heavily involved in the anti-Vietnam War movement, they struggled for Asian visibility, supported anti-imperialist and anti-capitalism world views and stood in solidarity with the oppressed peoples of Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean.To learn more visit: (https://www.negrabohemian.com/blog/aapi-heritage-month)

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON ANNA MAY WONG

Anna May Wong, born Wong Liu Tsong, was the first Asian-American movie star. Born in Los Angeles, California, Wong grew up near Chinatown but was sucked into the dream of becoming a film star at an early age. She gave herself the stage name “Anna May Wong” when she was eleven-years-old. Wong and her family lived in a racially diverse neighborhood and were, surprisingly, allowed to attend public school. They faced extreme racial attacks from other students. Wong described their experience as follows, “we tried to walk unconcernedly home from school, always with a larger and larger crowd of our tormentors around us shouting, ‘ch*nk, ch*nk, Chinaman. ch*nk, ch*nk, Chinaman.’ Yanking our ‘pigtails’ as they called our straight black braids of hair. Pushing us off the sidewalk into the street. Pinching us. Slapping us…every day was one of torture for us.” At the age of 14, Wong decided to try out for her first movie role and was cast as an extra. She would eventually land more prominent roles that typecast her as “exotic” and a “temptress”—perpetuating stereotypes of Asian women, but they were the only roles available to her. Wong also became a notable flapper and an intricate part of the Hollywood fashion and social scene; she grew a fan base for her work, but extreme racism within the entertainment industry prevented her from ever landing a lead role.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON ADRIAN COLA RIENZI

In 1833, the British government abolished slavery but still had a fully functioning colonial empire that thrived off the exploitation of its colonies around the globe. With sugar, tropical fruits and other products still in demand, the British, French and Dutch turned to India and indentured servanthood to replace slave labor—they simply exchanged one slave system for another. Colonies such as Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago received the largest number of Indian indentured servants in the Western Hemisphere; between 1835 and 1918, nearly 342,000 Indians arrived in Guyana and 144,000 in Trinidad. Many stayed in the area and created their own unique Indo-Caribbean cultures. Adrian Cola Rienez was an Indo-Trinidadian politician, trade unionist and activist who fought on behalf of marginalized workers and also advocated for religious equality for Trinidad’s Hindi and Muslim populations within a system that favored Christianity. Born as Krishna Deonarine in 1905, Rienzi attended law school in England; there he was exposed to anti-imperialism work from Irish classmates and became passionate about the global anti-imperialist fight. He built a friendship with the Indian trade unionist, Shapurji Saklatvala, while living in London, and had close ties with the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Irish Republican Congress. Rienzi returned to Trinidad and dedicated himself to labor unions, founding various ones on the island. He was the president of the Trinidad and Tobago Trade Union council and founded the Sugar Estates and Factory Workers Union along with the Oil Fields Workers’ Union. Rienzi worked relentlessly to improve the plight of the Indo-Trinidadian; he fought for the legal recognition of Muslim and Hindu marriages on the island, the religious right of cremation and the founding of Hindu and Muslim schools.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON ARLEN SUI

Arlen Sui was a Chinese-Nicaraguan revolutionary icon. She was born in 1955 to a Chinese immigrant father and a Nicaraguan mother. She joined the Sandinista movement when she was 18 years old. Sui was a talented singer, songwriter and musician who played multiple instruments—she loved poetry. She authored the poem, Rural María, which tells the story of poor, suffering mothers in rural Nicaragua. The poem has since been turned into a song sang by varying artists in Latin America. Her concerts on the university campus were often under watch of the national guard, who placed snipers around the university to monitor political activity. Siu also authored many feminist writings that have become widely read and admired in the country. She fought for women to have political importance within the Sandinistas and would eventually be killed at 20 years old in an ambush by national guard. She is hailed as a martyr and one of the first women killed in the revolutionary movement. To learn more visit: https://www.negrabohemian.com/blog/aapi-heritage-month

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON THE POLYNESIAN PANTHER PARTY

The Polynesian Panthers were a liberation activist group that fought for Polynesian and Māori empowerment in New Zealand. Inspired by the Black Power movement in the United States, along with Māori protests within the country, inner city youth in Auckland were emboldened to stand against capitalism and to fight for visibility. Auckland’s urban areas were filled with Pacific Islander immigrants, and their Kiwi-born children, who were subjected to police brutality, faced harsh discrimination, disenfranchisement and were constantly called racial slurs—"Black bastards” and “dumb coconuts” were often yelled at young Tongan and Samoan boys. Poverty was rampant, and the lack of opportunities and access to quality education was taking a toll on the new generation of Kiwi-born Pacific Islanders. The undocumented in the community lived in fear of dawn raids where police raided mostly Polynesian homes in the early morning, targeting those who may have overstayed their visas. Founded in 1971 by Fred Schmidt, Nooroa Teavae, Paul Dapp, Vaughan Sanft, Eddie Williams and Will 'Ilolahia, the Polynesian Panthers members were made up of university students, high schoolers and former gang members. They stood against the exploitative nature of capitalism and believed that overthrowing its system was one of the most fundamental paths toward liberation. The group joined the anti-Vietnam War movement, created after school homework help programs in their communities, ran food co-ops and promoted Polynesian languages and visibility in mainstream New Zealand culture; the group also advocated for tenets’ rights and fought against slumlords renting in Polynesian communities. Brown Pacific Islander boys couldn’t ride their bikes in their neighborhoods without being stopped by the police; they were constantly harassed as police demanded to see their IDs and passports....To learn more visit: (https://www.negrabohemian.com/blog/aapi-heritage-month)

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON YUJI ICHIOKA

Yuji Ichioka was a Japanese American civil rights activist and historian. He was born in San Francisco in 1936 to Japanese immigrant parents. Ichioka and his family would be held at the Topaz Japanese incarceration camp in Utah after the U.S. government declared war against its Japanese citizens, deeming them as enemies of the state during WWII. After their release, the family would return to the Bay Area and settle in Berkley. Ichioka attended UCLA for his undergraduate studies and eventually moved to New York City to attend Columbia. Ichioka never finished and decided to visit Japan for the first time in 1966. The trip served as a means of deep cultural awakening within Ichioka, and he was inspired to learn the language, culture and the experience of Japanese immigrants in the United States. Once he returned to the U.S., Ichioka attended Berkeley University where he earned a master’s degree in Japanese history. He became involved in activism and encouraged younger Asian Americans to join the anti-war and civil rights movements. He also played a significant role in the forming of the Asian American Political Alliance and taught the first-ever Asian American studies class at UCLA. He is credited with coining the term “Asian American”, which was revolutionary at the time as Asians were identified as “Orientals”. Ichioka found a term that would unite Asians in the United States as one, creating a sense of solidarity and pride. He continued his research on Japanese Americans until his death in 2002.

WE SHED TODAYS SPOTLIGHT ON YORM BOPHA

Yorm Bopha is a Cambodian housing rights and land activist who was jailed for her opposition against a luxury development in her community that led to the ousting of thousands of local residents from their homes. The Boeung Kak Lake is centrally located in the Khmer capital of Phnom Penh, making it prime real estate for foreign developers to expand. When a foreign company was given a 99-year lease to develop in a central, urban area surrounding the lake, Bopha and her neighbors found themselves being pushed out of their homes. Many residents received meager compensation and were left without enough money to buy new homes while others were relocated to areas far from their places of employment and were left without transportation. The development company filled the lake with sand to drain it, causing fish and agriculture to virtually disappear, thus having an economic impact on the local community who relied on these as income sources. Angered by over 3,000 local residents losing their homes, Bopha grabbed a megaphone and organized her community to stand against their government and developers. Bopha fought her way through police barricades, withstood water canons and demanded that residents were compensated fairly. She was eventually arrested and charged with allegedly assaulting two taxi drivers, and served jail time on what many believed were false chargers to squash the resistance she led. After protests and an international outcry, Bopha was released and continues to fight against gentrification. To learn more visit: (https://www.negrabohemian.com/blog/aapi-heritage-month)

International Women’s Day is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women, who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries and communities. The world has made unprecedented advances, but no country has achieved gender equality. Fifty years ago, we landed on the moon; in the last decade, we discovered new human ancestors and photographed a black hole for the first time. In the meantime, legal restrictions have kept 2.7 billion women from accessing the same choice of jobs as men. Less than 25 per cent of parliamentarians were women, as of 2019.

Black History IS American History BLACK HISTORY MONTH COLLECTION Thank you for celebrating Black History Month with @Educashion.rocks KNOWING THE PAST OPENS THE DOOR TO THE FUTURE Black History Month was created to focus attention on the contributions of African Americans to the United States. It honors all Black people from all periods of U.S. history, from the enslaved people first brought over from Africa in the early 17th century to African Americans living in the United States today. In 1915, in response to the lack of information on the accomplishments of Black people available to the public, historian Carter G. Woodson co-founded the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History. In 1926, the group declared the second week of February as “Negro History Week” to recognize the contributions of African Americans to U.S. history. Few people studied Black history and it wasn't included in textbooks prior to the creation of Negro History Week. This week was chosen because it includes the birthdays of both Frederick Douglass, an abolitionist (someone who wanted to end the practice of enslaving people), and former U.S. president Abraham Lincoln. President Lincoln led the United States during the Civil War, which was primarily fought over the enslavement of Black people in the country. Many schools and leaders began recognizing the week after its creation. The week-long event officially became Black History Month in 1976 when U.S. president Gerald Ford extended the recognition to “honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.” Black History Month has been celebrated in the United States every February since. www.Educashion.rocks LIKE ::: SHARE ::: SHOP ::: LEARN Instagram: @Educashion.rocks Facebook: Educashion.rocks #BlackHistoryMonth

Black History IS American History Today we shed light on Mark Dean: Computer scientist and engineer Mark Dean is credited with helping develop a number of landmark technologies, including the color PC monitor, the Industry Standard Architecture system bus and the first gigahertz chip. Computer scientist and engineer Mark Dean helped develop a number of landmark technologies for IBM, including the color PC monitor and the first gigahertz chip. He holds three of the company's original nine patents. He also invented the Industry Standard Architecture system bus with engineer Dennis Moeller, allowing for computer plug-ins such as disk drives and printers. Not long after college, Dean landed a job at IBM, a company he would become associated with for the duration of his career. As an engineer, Dean proved to be a rising star at the company. Working closely with a colleague, Dennis Moeller, Dean developed the new Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) systems bus, a new system that allowed peripheral devices like disk drives, printers and monitors to be plugged directly into computers. The end result was more efficiency and better integration. But his groundbreaking work didn't stop there. Dean's research at IBM helped change the accessibility and power of the personal computer. His work led to the development of the color PC monitor and, in 1999, Dean led a team of engineers at IBM's Austin, Texas, lab to create the first gigahertz chip—a revolutionary piece of technology that is able to do a billion calculations a second.
