Yoko Ono and Asian-American Identity
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 дек 2022
- Yoko Ono's career consists of over half a century of art, music, and activism. Yet despite this, public knowledge of her is limited to her famous husband and unsubstantiated rumours about her breaking up his band. This video aims to fix that, looking at Yoko Ono outside of her relationship to any one man, examining her life, art, and the ways she expressed her identity as an Asian American woman through them. This video also examines the history of anti-Asian racism in misogyny in America behind why Yoko was and continues to be viewed differently than her white male peers and contemporaries. I had initially begun writing this video in 2021, in solidarity with the Stop Asian Hate movement that began in response to a rise in Anti-Asian hate crimes. It took me almost two years to finish writing, recording, and editing the video. Despite the public conversation having moved on (sadly, it seems, to a similar rise in anti-LGBTQ+ violence), these issues continue to be relevant, and I wanted to cover them within a more specific context relevant to my interests.

I have been a fan of Yoko's work for many years. People have always been so nasty to her, and I experienced a lot of hate for liking her. I'm so happy she is being discovered by younger people today. If you are just learning about her from this video, please look into her art and music. You will be pleasantly surprised.
Thank you so much !! 素晴らしいコメントをして下さり感動しております。こんな風に思っておられる事に感謝申し上げます。
"The idea that she broke up the band: Nirvana"

Seriously though fantastic video I learned a lot and the visuals are put together in a really cool way, 10/10
I am honoured to have my comments section graced by a Novia keysmash.

Thank you so much !!

Wow you don't play around. Loved this. I knew so embarrassingly little about her. She was so original.
thank you for putting this beautiful video together! I went to her exhibition yesterday and this help me a lot understanding her!
I didn't realize that some feminists basically have been saying exactly the same thing for decades, the mainstream culture just didn't listen and misinterpret their message instead. 30:26 This song is basically saying that, yes, women can also be part of the problem, if they help perpetuate toxic patriarchal ideas. But people discuss this topic today as if no one had realized this until yesterday, and misogynists even weaponize it... to perpetuate toxic patriarchal ideas even more, ironically.
omg this needs more views
Aww, thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed my video!
I have no clue how u have such little subscribers and views compared to the astonishing quality of your videos. Man what a cruel world, but please keep going ur vids are amazing
Beautiful video

Truly a great video. If you continue this quality and continue this passion. You’ll truly become a staple in RUclips Analysis community . If not that - you’ll definitely become many peoples favorite analysis channel. Might be mine already 🤙🏼 keep it up . Love the work
Bestie!! Come back 😭😞
I'm glad you enjoy my videos 😅. Don't worry, I'm still alive and have a view more videos in the pipeline, but I want to make something bigger and more elaborate which requires a lot of research.
I would lovve to see more new album analysis, love those videos a lot@@adambaker2967
Yoko ono has really good albums
No sexualization of fishmen. The ultimate Yokopost? More like the ultimate Yokofail. 0/10.
For real though, great video, your labour bares many ripe fruits.
Will you do an analysis on The Dark Side of the Moon when it's 50th anniversary comes?
I definitely want to do a video on that album at some point, and, after making the video on The Wall, had initially planned to do it on the anniversary as I had done for that video. Needless to say, I didn't make that deadline, and have a couple of other albums that are in the pipeline before that one. However, it is still planned, and I'm in the preliminary stages of research.
Rina Sawayama touches the theme of being an Asian woman living in Anglo-Saxon country in her excellent song STFU!: ruclips.net/video/XojM2D3F-Dc/видео.html
