"Japanese girl's Euro-Nepotism"
No, this is Eurocentrism, because she herself is non-"white".
Her Twitter should be posted here:

instead. This topic is for "whites" doing favours for other
"whites" only.

year-old black boy in the stomache and kill him because he was
accused of stealing a vape cigarette refill with no
repercussions or damages awarded, but heaven forbid that a White

of two black men without being compensated with enough money to
buy a Renaissance Villa in Italy.

It's OK for legislation to be "white":

--- Quote ---
> When white people die, SC laws change. Why haven’t Black
deaths led to state hate crimes law?
>
> While the deaths of white victims in recent years have spurred
numerous changes in South Carolina law, the state’s refusal to
pass a hate crimes law sends an “outrageous” message about the
value placed on Black lives, some Black lawmakers say.
>
> Since 2016, three bills in South Carolina have become law
following the death of a white person, including the Tucker
Hipps Transparency Act, the Samantha L. Josephson Rideshare
Safety Act and Gavin’s Law. Meanwhile, repeated calls for a hate
crimes law — particularly after nine Black people, including a
state senator, were killed in 2015 at Emanuel AME Church in
Charleston — remain unanswered.
>
> “It doesn’t speak well for the state, nor of its elected
officials,” said state Rep. Wendell Gilliard, D-Charleson, who
for years has spearheaded several hate crimes measures. “When
(Samantha Josephson) tragically lost her life, the Uber bill
sailed through the House and Senate. Here we are in South
Carolina, coming up on eight years since the (Mother Emanuel)
tragedy, and we can’t even get (hate crimes) past the Senate.
That is outrageous.”
> ...
> The legislature has passed several high-profile laws in direct
response to deaths of white victims.
>
> Last month, Gov. Henry McMaster signed a bill — Gavin’s Law —
that makes sexual extortion or “sextortion” a felony offense,
which becomes aggravated if the victim is a minor.
>
> The measure was sponsored by freshman state Rep. Brandon
Guffey, R-York, whose 17-year-old-son, Gavin, died by suicide
last summer after falling victim to an online sextortion scheme.
>
> Guffey’s bill received bipartisan support, passing the House
107-0 and the Senate 43-0.
>
> Guffey had previously voted against the hate crimes proposal
> ...
> With similar swiftness to the passing of Gavin’s Law,
lawmakers in 2019 passed the Samantha L. Josephson Ridesharing
Act after a University of South Carolina student got into what
she thought was her Uber following a night out in Columbia’s
Five Points district. The next day, Josephson was found stabbed
to death in a rural part of Clarendon County.
>
> The Josephson act requires drivers working for rideshare
companies, such as Uber and Lyft, to display license plate
numbers in the front and back of their vehicles, aiming to make
it easier for a rider to verify the driver’s identity. Complying
with this requirement could be as simple as a driver penning
their license tag number onto a sheet of paper and taping it to
their windshields.
>
> The law also created misdemeanor penalties for anyone who
misrepresent themselves as a rideshare driver — by, for example,
displaying an illuminated sign — to commit a crime, including a
$500 fine or 30 days in jail.
>
> That bill passed 99-1 in the House and 41-0 in the Senate.
>
> And in 2016, policymakers passed the Tucker Hipps Transparency
Act after a Clemson University student died during an early
morning run. His parents claimed the student died from hazing.
The House passed the bill unanimously.
>
> The Hipps Act mandates four-year public colleges, with the
exception of the Medical University of South Carolina and The
Citadel, report violations related to drugs, alcohol, sexual
assault, threats and hazing by Greek organizations to the
institution’s website. Schools also were required to post
violations dating back to January 2011.

subject to a revolving door of white managers.

> “These white managers, I had to train and introduce to my
industry contacts, and that itself made me feel so frustrated,”
he said. “I felt like I was banging my head against the door
thinking, ‘What do I need to do?’”

the team that the white female was preferred because she was

to make a presentation, a white executive ridiculed him about
how he pronounced his R's, telling him to enunciate, according
to the complaint. Wong said this seriously affected him.
>

“That was all he cared about, he didn’t care about the content
of my presentation. It completely shook me, I lost my
confidence. When I had to give the board meeting shortly
thereafter, I couldn’t even think about what I needed to
present.”

management the presentation “made white people feel bad,” he
