One Person Can Change the World, or at Least Part of It

One voice can change a room, and if one voice can change a room, then it can change a city, and if it can change a city, it can change a state, and if it change a state, it can change a nation, and if it can change a nation, it can change the world. ~Barack Obama

One black couple did exactly that in 1939, and now, in 2024, generations later, we can see the impact of what that couple did with one brave, bold, and simple, act.  A black couple rented a home to a Chinese family.

One Person Can Change a World

A Black couple defied racism by renting to a Chinese family. Now comes $5 million in thanks (LA Times)

Every morning, Lloyd Dong Sr. would take the ferry from San Diego to Coronado, where he worked as a gardener for wealthy homeowners. And every night, he would retreat back home across the bay, barred by racially restrictive housing practices in the early 1900s from renting or buying his own house in the town.

Gus and Emma Thompson — a Black couple who had managed to secure ownership of Coronado property before restrictions took hold — boldly rented a house they owned to the Dong family, whose Chinese heritage blocked them from living in the community. The intersection of these two families amid the embedded racism of the time would decades later become a story of gratitude, made possible by the very home that once belonged to the Thompsons.

Some 85 years since the Dongs moved to Coronado, Lloyd Sr.’s sons, Ron Dong and Lloyd Dong Jr., are donating $5 million from their portion of the sale of the house they eventually came to own to San Diego State University’s Black Resource Center.

The gift will expand scholarships for Black students and fund future renovations at the center, its director, Brandon Gamble, said.

“I don’t know how to describe the feeling in my chest, but there’s a feeling that racism gives that folks are familiar with; you may not be able to describe it all the time,” Gamble said. “This is the complete opposite, and we don’t get to access it enough.”

Ron Dong, 86, the eldest son, said his father “tried and tried [to live in Coronado] and the only thing that came up was Gus Thompson willing to rent his house that he had available…. That was the big plus for our family, because it has made all the difference for us.”

      This is a great reminder of the fact that racist policies in the West typically targeted Asian-Americans (and Native-Americans and Mexicans).  There were also restrictive covenants that excluded Black People and Jewish People, but the really big energy out West was quite different in focus than it was in the South, Midwest and NorthEast.

      Conservatives and mass media (but I repeat myself) focus on Black vs. Asian hate and make it seem the norm. But, while that exists, it’s far more common, and far more historical, to see solidarity.

      Thinking hard about the latest stuff in politics and saw this article on the defamation lawsuits from voting companies.

      I don’t pretend to know what precise effect it will have but the idea that Newsmax and FOX and OAN all facing multi-million dollar lawsuits against both their companies, their hosts and their frequent guests RIGHT BEFORE the election will have on right-wing coverage.  TFG will be talking all about 2020 and election fraud, but will OAN and Newsmax allow him time, if it is just going to get them into more trouble?  Will FOX want to play ball, even if the lawsuit won’t end them, it will destroy Jeremy Strong and Kieran Culkin (Editor’s Note: You know who I mean).

      Additionally, I wonder how much ‘fun’ the NYT will find their first serious death threats from right-wingers when TFG calls them out by name for not kissing his ass in their coverage.  Will there be a sense of “Maybe we should take him and his threats seriously this time?” from legacy media that’s grown comfortable?

      I think this and put it in this thread because all these signs point upwards.

      Last time the Legislature passed a bill that pissed off Uber and Lyft, they overturned it with a ballot proposition. Getting my popcorn order in, now.

      Online food delivery platforms such as DoorDash and UberEats tack on fees to restaurants, hidden from consumers, that can drive up the cost of those deliveries.

      A California lawmaker has introduced a bill intended to make it easier for consumers to see exactly what the delivery services are charging. However, the bill’s sponsor has ties to scandal-plagued former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick, and critics of the bill warn that it could provide major restaurant chains with access to competitor information. Senate Bill 1490 would require platforms such as GrubHub, DoorDash and UberEats to disclose to their customers what fees are being charged, both to them and to the restaurants.

      Currently, California law only requires that such platforms inform customers that restaurants are being assessed certain fees, but not the amount of the fee. It’s author, Sen. María Elena Durazo, D-Los Angeles, said in a statement of support that “customers and restaurants are paying high and often hidden fees when ordering through the big third-party delivery platforms.” She went on to say that by providing customers with this transparency, they “can make informed decisions when ordering food from their favorite restaurants.”

      Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, restaurants have seen a dramatic shift in their sources of revenue, as fewer people are dining in and more are ordering in. According to Durazo’s office, online orders make up 30-40% of restaurant revenue now. The largest online food delivery platforms “abuse their leverage to impose high and hidden fees and actively cut restaurants off from their own customers,” her office said.

      The bill is sponsored by the Digital Restaurant Association, which lobbies on behalf of the restaurant industry. “Restaurants and customers alike deserve transparency to know exactly what fees are charged and who is receiving them,” the DRA said in a statement of support for the bill.

      @gwangung: There’s still a sad amount of casual, Anti-Blackness in the Asian-American community.  I just had to explain to my Taiwanese-American assistant coach why it’s not cool to refer to the park we teach tennis at, as “ghetto.”  The park is much more diverse and has far more Black people, pickup basketball games, hip hop on radios etc., than the other park we work at that is in a much more affluent and predominantly Asian-American community.  The AAPI community is still miles better than predominantly-White ones, but it’s sad how much anti-Blackness still exists despite the fact that Anti-Blackness and Anti-Asian sentiments and oppressions have had so much historical overlap.

      You really need to step back from this overly simplistic view.

      A quick example from Los Angeles social history. The Crenshaw district is seen as “the hood,” but it was one of the largest integrated neighborhoods in California, largely thanks to Asian Americans.

      By working tirelessly and pooling their combined funds, by the mid-1950s, Japanese families were finally positioned to purchase houses. To meet the postwar housing boom, numerous Japanese American real estate companies opened, which played a crucial role in developing properties and opening doors to families of color who were buying their first homes. This led to a migration of Japanese Americans and Blacks into the Southwest (known as “Seinan” for locals), Venice-Culver and Crenshaw districts after the war, just as urban renewal downtown began tearing down Little Tokyo for city expansion.

      A returning Japanese American veteran got into real estate and explicitly defied racial covenants by selling homes to Hispanic and black families.

      And this is just a quick example. There are many more stories of solidarity and cooperation that need to be remembered.

      I remember efforts by recent 1st generation Chinese Americans who opposed renaming a CA high school for Japanese American camp survivors because of what happened in Nanking. (The irony being that their “reason” was exactly the same as the reason they were incarcerated in the first place, and disrespectfully spitting on the pan-Asian effort to do the renaming in the first place).

      In anticipation of the new law that raised the minimum wage to $20 an hour for most fast food franchises with at least 60 stores, some pizza places and other eateries laid off their employee drivers. This pushed more customers to Door Dash and other companies.

      Putting the squeeze on these delivery companies is understandable, but it may not help customers as much as lawmakers think.

      For some places, drive thru is becoming bigger, leading to neighborhood complaints of long lines of cars spilling over into residential areas.

      @gwangung: It’s also just hard in organizing to get different groups to show up for other groups.  And that is a pretty universal challenge, in my experience.  I’ve done outreach to try to build coalitions on police violence (mostly effecting the Blackest areas of our city) and gotten mostly nothing but crickets from Latinx and Asian-American orgs.  And similarly disappointing reluctance/disinterest from Black and AAPI orgs/activists when it comes to Immigration campaigns.  And the same reluctance from Black and Latinx orgs/activists for StopAsianHate campaigns.  They mostly stand in solidarity when it comes to voting but creating strong interracial/ethnic coalitions has been surprisingly tough even in areas with decent-sized communities of each group.  The attitude that “well that’s THEIR problem” is disappointingly common even in activism/organizing and even in communities that talk a lot about the importance of allyship and unity.  All that said, all three communities are still exponentially better and more receptive than your average white community.

      I live in Southern California. Taxi service has been terrible for decades. Uber and Lyft are welcome alternatives.

      Los Angeles is where private car and taxi companies prevented light rail from coming to LAX. The Green Line came close, but requires that people transfer to shuttle buses to get to the airport. About the only people who use the Green Line are LAX employees.

      As for restaurants, yeah, everybody pays more. But if restaurants fire their delivery drivers, what is the alternative.

      It’s funny. I hear some local progressives insisting that people should buy food from farmers and stay home. Fuck people who need jobs.

      @Brachiator: You know what the restaurants don’t do if there’s no DoorDash? Fire the employees they need for a decent chunk of their revenue. Their delivery drivers stay employed if they can’t be outsourced to a third party that, through a lack of transparency, is able to exact excessive rents from both consumers and restaurants.

      Nothing in that law is doing anything but making it clear exactly how much and where the ride share companies are adding to the bill. If that’s enough to cause disruption to the delivery side of things, that should tell you something about how what they’re doing is not okay.

      Otherwise it’s just a fee people are willing to pay for convenience and nothing will come of it except people will have accurate information.

      From late December.

      Two large Pizza Hut operators in California are laying off all their delivery drivers ahead of a new state law that raises the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 an hour, Business Insider reports.

      The layoffs impact hundreds of Pizza Hut locations across the state including Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, Ventura and San Bernardino counties and Sacramento, and involve more than 1,200 in-house delivery drivers.

      I think that this was stupid and self-defeating, but they didn’t ask me.
