Dr. Takekawa was told by a former student “It’s about time for you to ‘clean’ because you are Asian. Look at the other Asian janitors at school”


Dr. Miho Takekawa

Global - On Tuesday November 9th, Donald Trump became president of the United States of America, and simultaneously the scourges from the dark recesses of every cesspool in America, and around the world, rose to the top. Acts of public celebration, proclamations of liberation and affirmation of all that is wrong, seem to automatically become the norm for the future. The Long Winter is here, it has begun, it is real and it is going global.

....This year When Steel Talks spotlighted educator, performing artist and panist Dr. Miho Takekawa during our annual Celebration of Women and the Steelpan Art Form. In a recent social media post Dr. Takekawa spoke of an incident she experienced that highlighted the changing climate and potential for a new low in human civility that ‘Trumpism’ has ushered in.

    My sincere apologies to Professor Takekawa, for your negative experience.. Trump has indeed started something bigger that any of us..I recently had a facebook conversation with a black man I will call Nate. He all but destroyed any confidence I had in ever overcomming what just happened to us...The story here is saddening to people all over the world because many of us have had similar experiences..Van Jones from CNN was called a racist because he expressed his views on Mr Trump..I too am married to a white woman and like Jones I have experienced the remarks and scorn directed towards a Nigger and a nigger lover. Only those who come face to face with the ugliness of unprovoked persecution will Understand.. Certainly not Nate..He said he stood by Trump because he didnt see why all these women came forward after all these years, obviously the man doesnt understand politics too well.I even pointed out that HIllary's actions were when she was secretary of state over four yrs ago but the man remain unmoved..This is why I'm deeply concerned about how we will ever overcome this uncharitable movement.If reason the element that separates us form animals can't halt the open expression of hate and indifference that seem to be a proud way to identify one's self, then who or what can?
  • The people has spoken.

    • THANK GOD CECIL. Because OBAMA and HILLARY and the FAR LEFT wanted to make EVERY MAN in AMERICA a HOMOSEXUAL.

      And IZATRINI  -- ah eh in dat unless meh pardner Dr. deLight intend to COME OUT LATE!!! Now ah making joke, MR. GLENROY!!!

      • Only in America, one guy lost his wuk for what says on the video the other elected President of the United States of America...the people has spoken...

        • A lot better than TWO HOMOSEXUAL ANCHORS on CNN pontificating about this IMMORALITY. And TRUMP is SO BIG that he said he was going to leave GAY MARRIAGE legal.

          I ready to retract my support for TRUMP with that LIBERALISM!!! I really think that he is a CLOSET LIBERAL DEMOCRAT if you ask me.

  • Glenroy: As much as I respect and like you  and appreciate your marketing of the culture -- we disagree on EVERYTHING!!! Which I find intriguing and understandable.

    Maybe it is time for me to leave this forum and go campaign for TRUMP 2020!!!
