Don’t call me a POC.
It’s literally just a repackaged slur. “Colored” with extra syllables. You’re othering me with a label that lumps every non-white person into a single category as if a Bangladeshi kid from Jersey and a Black woman from Atlanta have the same lived experience because neither of us is white.
Treating different identities like a monolith has gotten most people out of touch with reality. Learn about centrism. Find balance.
I’m the only South Asian guy promoting techno in Bushwick. That’s specific. That’s real. “POC” is a political abstraction designed to create voting blocs, not describe human beings.
