She was born in American Samoa, and her father is half Samoan (also born in A.S.). Samoa is similar to Hawaii in being Polynesian genetically and culturally, but it's way the hell over near New Zealand, not Hawaii, let alone the mainland of the US.<br /><br />So far, there is no reserved seat at the table for Polynesians as a whole or any sub-group of them. Filipinos may be getting there, so they may be more inclined toward wokeness. But not Samoans, or "Hawaiians of Polynesian descent". If anything, the protected seat for Hawaii is for Japanese, or other mainland Asian groups.<br /><br />Not being hand-picked as secondary elites, the Polynesians -- whichever part they're from -- have less material motive to prop up the system of wokeness.<br /><br />And yet they're still included under the American empire's sphere of influence, back to the 1890s. If they're living in Hawaii, they have statehood benefits, not to mention citizenship benefits.<br /><br />So they're somewhat like the Ellis Island ethnics other than Jews. First incorporated into the American empire around the turn of the 20th C, assimilating into the American nationality afterward (language, religion, civic culture, etc.), but not having reserved seats at the elite table.<br /><br />Like the other anti-woke role models, Tulsi is a woman and attractive. (Unlike the others, Tulsi is a hips-ass-and-thighs woman.)<br /><br />Oddly enough, her main defender today is Susan Sarandon -- whose mother is an Italian from Queens. (Father sounds WASPy, though.) More support for the unprotected minorities banding together in solidarity, even across racial lines.<br /><br />Obviously the non-Jewish Ellis Islanders, and white Southerners, aren't thinking *consciously* that Tulsi's background is similar to their own within the system, but that's what material incentives do -- bring strange bedfellows together.<br /><br />She's also somewhat of an immigrant or of immigrant background / member of a diaspora. American Samoa is a territory of the US, but it's not a state, and it's on the other side of the world. So having an ethnic background in part from there, makes her like Aimee, Anna, and Angela, in having migrated closer toward the imperial core, rather than being deeply rooted where she is.agnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967177967469961883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-41854100774877589432019-08-30T09:48:51.988-04:002019-08-30T09:48:51.988-04:00Settling into the anti-woke left capital like...
