I'm a diasporic Vietnamese American who fled to the US in '75 as a refugee, avoiding political persecution. My #Vietnameseword for you today is "yêu." It is the verb "to love." Yêu is mainly reserved for romantic love or one's country. My parents used to say "thương" to us, not "yêu."

The 2 sweetest words for an author are 'The End.' I'm proud to say that my 70,000 words manuscript is now in my editor's hands. I've been at this since 2017, so yeah, it feels great but surreal!

Don't think for a moment that they won't come for you next, no matter the color of your skin, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation. Nothing is sacred or safe. It's all about their power, ego, and money. 🍊 💩

The #dismantling of #democracy is at warp speed bc the people have voted him in. Their safety, livelihood & ours will now have fewer guardrails & continue to disappear. As a result, the billionaire tech giants will benefit from our losses. That's why the cowardly men courted him with no dignity.

I don't own a Tesla!
I canceled Prime.
I deactivated FB.
I'm still on Instagram, Threads & WhatsApp.
Well, with Google, I can't seem to find a way out.
How do you deal?

When the #dominant-culture & #Not-my-president say they're #colorblind, they're not saying they respect POC as equals & preserve DEI policies that will foster social & economic security & equality. It's an erasure statement that we don't exist or count. We are on our own to advocate for ourselves.

How is it that we ended up here with someone doing a Na*i salute at the inauguration and getting away with it? I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.

A warm welcome to #BookTok & #Booksky community 📚💕. I believe in #Diversity in books, empathy, and resistance against fascism and book banning. I'm a diasporic Vietnamese American author sharing my refugee experience in the US and the lasting trauma of the #VietnamWar. Let's learn from our history.
