The "Roof Koreans" Meme
When a protest to support the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement was organized in Seoul in the summer of 2020, not a few commentators in South Korea's online communities expressed their cynicism about the movement. While some referred to the recent hate crimes conducted against Asians after the coronavirus outbreak, many others summoned the memory of the 1992 Los Angeles riots. The fact that many Korean American-owned stores had been looted and da…
