Don't Blame Me For COVID-19

    For Luan, growing up as an Asian American wasn't easy. Luan was born and raised in America as an American citizen, but his parents are Vietnamese immigrants who escaped their country after the Vietnam War. Even though Luan was born an American citizen, all people seem to see was his Asian heritage.
    When Luan was in elementary school, kids would make fun of his features - his small eyes and flat face - and they would say incredibly hurtful things. When he would pull out his lunch in the cafeteria, kids around him would say mean things like, "EW, is that dog?" Luan hated the way people made him feel.
    As Luan got older, things seemed to get worse. He'd go to school every day and kids would say the same hurtful things. They would scream, "Hey ling ling" or "ching chong." They would call him terrible names and belittle him. After a while, Luan got so used to the way he was treated that he even made racist jokes about himself. He began to hate who he was and feel ashamed of his culture.
    When the COVID pandemic hit, things got even worse for Luan. People would ask him, "How did the bat taste?" When he would walk down the street, people would say, "Ew, stay away from me, you have COVID!" Luan was made fun of even more, since everyone believed that the virus came from China.
    When Luan found out about the shooting in Georgia that targeted Asian-owned salons, he was really scared. His parents owned a salon, and he couldn't imagine what he would do if the same thing happened to his family. Every day, as Luan scrolled through Instagram and Twitter, he would see videos of Asian Americans being attacked for no reason. Everything seemed to get worse for Asian Americans during the pandemic, and Luan thought to himself, "Don't blame me for COVID-19."
    Recently, though, Luan has learned to love his culture. He realized that his special features, the food he eats and his family's heritage are what make him special and unique. He has learned to love himself and his heritage. He wants to end racist attacks against Asians and spread the STOP ASIAN HATE message. From now on, he will always remember to be proud of where he came from.

    I’m a Chinese-American adoptee, and used to get asked “why don’t you have small eyes” or “why is your nose flat” or more recently (in high school, no less) someone came up behind me and loudly said, “ni hao”. I don’t understand what people think they’re gaining by being rude.

      I meannn, the world is still kinda fucked up. I wouldn't say that if we didn't have parasitic animals that lay their eggs inside of other animals so their hatchlings can eat their way out and mate with their siblings to repeat the process.
      Or if roaches didn't exist. I mean I'm not really sure why anyone would create such an efficient being when it comes to survival yet make it disgusting looking and spread diseases. That's also fucked up.
      But on the bright side, as humans we're constantly trying to change for the better. I mean that for the species as a whole. We've changed laws and social structures and even our treatment towards other animals just so we would do less harm. And I appreciate that. But yeah I do agree that we're still kinda messed up because of our other flaws that we still gotta correct. I think what I'm tryina say is that everything's fucked up in some way, but on the bright side, we're urging one another to improve.

Hearing this story and looking around me and seeing this disgusting reality is making me believe we are loosing our society.

    As a British-Chinese person, I do somewhat relate to this story. Though I would say there isn't much violence here, as I don't recall seeing much Asian people getting beaten up in the UK. People made racist comments on my appearance, called me horrible nicknames and assumed that I ate cats or dogs. Of course, it got worse when the Covid 19 pandemic came out. It really hurted me, sometimes I would pretend to be poorly to avoid going to school to hear racist comments. It really hurted me to hear that they don't see me as part of their group, as I viewed myself as more British than Chinese.

    I love how storybooth allows people to share their stories. It can make them feel better by venting it to someone, and others can relate to it, be more aware of what is going on around them, and also learn something from it. Unlike some other channels which make sht like, *'My bf cheated on me with a monkey and the monkey threatened to start war with humanity so I tried to hunt monkeys only to realise my parents were monkeys too and now I'm being held hostage by monkeys'*

    A lot of my friends and sadly my family members have said these hurtful things. Not to a person’s face but between family conversations. I always felt bad and tried to intervene but it’s not always easy. I want to thank this person for stepping up and sending this message so more people can be aware of it.

    It would’ve been nice to see how he came to appreciate his culture again. Because it’s shown in like just in an instant he’s automatically liking himself again. There must’ve been something to love his culture again.
    No disrespect to this good man. It’s a good story nonetheless

    I have an aunt I have really strong bond with. I almost had an obsession with her, and she also gave me time. I used to share all my stuff with her. I felt happy. But now, she's really busy. For that, she isn't spending a lot of time with me. I mean when I write about it, it's pretty funny and not serious. But tbh, being with someone 24/7 and not seeing them like, at all is a pretty drastic change. And it's causing me emotional pain. I mean the truth is, she is REALLY caring for me and my siblings as well and we all really love her. That's why I'm really, maybe too attached to her. But my brother on the other hand, is pretty de-attached to her. For that reason, my aunt becomes sad and and even cries sometimes. It's all because I had a strong attachment to her, she has an expectation that the rest of my siblings will have the attachment to her too. And because my brother hasn't that much bond with her, it's making her sad. And if I didn't have a bond with her in the first place, maybe she wouldn't have any expectations, may be she wouldn't be sad because my brother doesn't have a strong bond with her, maybe I could control my emotions easier. It's all because of me 😭😭😭

    I really really love Storybooth for actually picking stories that have some sort of relavant message, no matter how common or wide the problem or something is and not falling into the deep hole most animated story channal have.
