‘As an Asian woman, born in Germany and living in Europe since, I have encountered and witnessed racist sexual objectification. Each time I speak up, most people stand in solitary with me, however, some react aggressively; they either scoff or denounce me. Thus, as an Asian female artist, I feel a strong sense of responsibility to address racial discrimination through my work.

The racist and sexist comments collected in this book are based on what I have actually heard myself. It allows the reader to take account of this very sad, aggressive rejection of the human dignity of Asian woman happening every day.’ – Seulbin Roh
