When Multiculturalism Means Genocide.

28 April 2018 [link youtube]


Can you name a language indigenous to Los Angeles? Can you name a language indigenous to any part of California?



BTW, my girlfriend is slacking on her one (and only) duty "in video production" here: my EYEBROWS are NOT ON FLEEK in this video… honestly… do you expect me to look in a mirror before filming, or what?

this monument is standing in the middle
of the political and bureaucratic core of Los Angeles that City Hall they're just around the corner the other way are the the major courthouses for the state the law library and so on and this is a disembodiment that is typical of our era of kind of uncritically and unthinkingly celebrating multiculturalism there are many many languages on this monument including a surprising number of different leaders I have studied myself so near the top I can see Cambodian a cake um I khm er Cambodian language of course obviously Chinese Korean Japanese and various European languages including French or what have you that's my best girl Melissa they're taking a stroll through the park look guys I come to this Monument immediately after using a bank machine bank machine from Bank of America the thing and it had about eight languages you could choose from this Monument here's ty another language of study this this monument is giving you you know more than a dozen Oh around the corner sorry anyway so what asked me for directions anyway the the thing is though when you look at what's on offer on that Bank machine what's being celebrated in this kind of monument there are precisely zero indigenous languages there are zero languages that would be indigenous to California or to any part of the United States of America so people call this a celebration of multiculturalism but from my perspective it's a celebration of this countenance process of slow-motion genocide
