I\u2019m just going to say it, in this day and age we cannot mince words. Those are racist systems.\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She attacked Asian students specifically, calling them a \u201cmodel minority\u201d that strives to earn the approval of whites: \u201cBeing a \u2018model-minority\u2019 is not something to covet or celebrate,\u201d she wrote on her personal page.<\/p>\n<p>Recall SF School Board, a group determined to boot members of the board who they believe are sacrificing academic excellence at the altar of woke ideology, released a series of Collins\u2019 tweets on Friday, and in them, she shows a clear anti-Asian bias, even going so far as to accuse Asians of being complicit in \u201cwhite supremacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"7.6842105263158\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">30 REASONS TO RECALL THE SF SCHOOL BOARD<\/p>\n<p>19.

Although the shooter, a young man who claimed to have a \u201csex addiction,\u201d told police that he targeted the spas to eliminate a \u201ctemptation,\u201d and was reportedly one of the spa\u2019s customers, critical race theory proponents quickly claimed that the murders were the culmination of an anti-Asian hate campaign that began with President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Certainly, in San Francisco, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/activists-protest-white-supremacy-after-black-man-arrested-for-attack-on-asian-man-in-san-francisco\">anti-Asian violence has made headlines<\/a>, which is likely why San Francisco Mayor London Breed was quick to demand that Collins resign her post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll of our young people in our schools need to feel respected and supported, and you simply can\u2019t use words like that,\u201d Breed said in a statement released Saturday. \u201cAsian people in this country have long faced very real racism, including here in San Francisco, and you can\u2019t just broad brush their experience in a way that is so harmful and offensive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span class=\"css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\">I support calls by leaders like <\/span><span class=\"r-18u37iz\"><a class=\"css-4rbku5 css-18t94o4 css-901oao css-16my406 r-1n1174f r-1loqt21 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DavidChiu\" data-focusable=\"true\">@DavidChiu<\/a> <\/span>and <span class=\"r-18u37iz\"><a class=\"css-4rbku5 css-18t94o4 css-901oao css-16my406 r-1n1174f r-1loqt21 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\" dir=\"ltr\" role=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jennyhlam\" data-focusable=\"true\">@JennyhLam<\/a><\/span><span class=\"css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\">, as well as many others, for Alison Collins to resign.

This week has been marked by hate and violence. And in this moment of pain, words matter more than ever. I appreciate that Vice President Collins has apologized for her remarks,\u201d she said, suggesting that Collins\u2019 issue is actually beneficial to the overall discussion of race. \u201cThe board recognizes the hurt that has been caused. Discussions on race and racism create discomfort but when done correctly we contribute to the learning and growth in our community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/activists-protest-white-supremacy-after-black-man-arrested-for-attack-on-asian-man-in-san-francisco\">Activists Protest \u2018White Supremacy\u2019 After Black Man Arrested For Attack On Asian Man In San Francisco<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
