AASFH Thank You Letter to Donors Updated Asian Americans Salute Frontline Heroes Dear friends, Asian Americans Salute Frontline Heroes (AASFH) has successfully concluded its campaign. Your generous donation which serves as the cornerstone of our campaign allows us to accomplish all our objectives in a very short 7-week period. Every committee member has worked tirelessly to make this possible. Below is a brief summary of what we have accomplished for each of our three objectives: 1. Honoring our frontline heroes who are putting their lives at risk for our benefit. We have delivered 10,000 meals to frontline heroes (doctors, nurses, policemen, firefighters, sanitary workers, health department employees…) at more than 50 separate locations. 2. Helping Asian restaurants that are struggling due to this pandemic. We have paid more than $100,000 for the above 10,000 meals to more than 30 Asian restaurants. 3. Counteracting the growing anti-Asian sentiment and highlighting contributions of Asian Americans during this pandemic. We have published two full-page and two half-page ads (see attached) in Houston Chronicle to highlight the contribution of Asian Americans to this pandemic (more than 3 million dollars in total donation) and to address the issue of growing anti-Asian sentiment due to the pandemic. We have held a press conference with Mayor Turner highlighting the above issues. We had great coverage of our effort by Houston Chronicle which also highlighted the Asian American contributions. We have held an award ceremony honoring the two heroes who intervened when an Asian American family in Midland, Texas was attacked with a knife due to the growing anti-Asian sentiment. We have held a virtual panel discussion with 6 distinguished panelists which was attended by an audience from multiple states. As you can see, your donation was put to good use. What we have done has made a significant impact to our frontline heroes, our struggling Asian restaurants and at the same time, we were able to promote a more positive image of Asian Americans to all Houstonians. Thank you once again for your generous donation! Without you, we would not be able to accomplish what we had accomplished!

  • Chinatown and Urban Redevelopment: a Spatial Narrative of Race, Identity, and Urban Politics 1950 – 2000
    CHINATOWN AND URBAN REDEVELOPMENT: A SPATIAL NARRATIVE OF RACE, IDENTITY, AND URBAN POLITICS 1950 – 2000 BY CHUO LI DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor D. Fairchild Ruggles, Chair Professor Dianne Harris Associate Professor Martin Manalansan Associate Professor Faranak Miraftab Abstract The dissertation explores the intricate relations between landscape, race/ethnicity, and urban economy and politics in American Chinatowns. It focuses on the landscape changes and spatial struggles in the Chinatowns under the forces of urban redevelopment after WWII. As the world has entered into a global era in the second half of the twentieth century, the conditions of Chinatown have significantly changed due to the explosion of information and the blurring of racial and cultural boundaries. One major change has been the new agenda of urban land planning which increasingly prioritizes the rationality of capital accumulation. The different stages of urban redevelopment have in common the deliberate efforts to manipulate the land uses and spatial representations of Chinatown as part of the socio-cultural strategies of urban development. A central thread linking the dissertation’s chapters is the attempt to examine the contingent and often contradictory production and reproduction of socio-spatial forms in Chinatowns when the world is increasingly structured around the dynamics of economic and technological changes with the new forms of global and local activities. Late capitalism has dramatically altered city forms such that a new understanding of the role of ethnicity and race in the making of urban space is required.

  • Why We Choose to Be Stupid
    Why we choose to be stupid : the responsibility of andragogy and a search for answers in paradox, Canon, multiculturalism and the philosophy of postmodern critical education theory by Gregory Norton Garcia A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in Adult, Community, and Higher Education Montana State University © Copyright by Gregory Norton Garcia (1997) Abstract: In this study ideas and concepts that can be used to describe the phenomenon of stupidity and explore the possibility that we choose to be stupid, were developed from the social and political philosophy of Western Civilization. The research methods applied were based on the phenomenological school of qualitative inquiry using a narrative style. Findings suggest we choose to be stupid and stupidity can be generally described in the following ways: Conceptually, it is a paradox or antilogy that can be behaviorally chronicled in a number of ways. Culturally, stupidity is a philosophically implied concept that has consistently been instrumental in shaping our ideas of intelligence. Andragogically, stupidity is voluntary behavior that may be conscious and/or unconscious, but is manifestly anti-moral if not immoral and so it is counterproductive. Individually and personally, stupidity is a seemingly anatomic behavioral response to serendipitous personal and cultural predicaments. Stupidity can result from confused thinking. It can result from a misinterpretation of reality and it can also be generated by the human incapacity to live a moral existence. While stupidity may not be curable, by developing more precise awareness, we can compensate for stupidity by more fully realizing consequences.

  • Unreported Cases
    2001] UNREPORTED CASES defended in bad faith, such that the fees paid by Statek to finance the defense should never have been expended in the first place. This Court has already held, and the Delaware Supreme Court has affirmed, that Johnston and Spillane defended the §225 action in bad faith and were personally liable to pay Vendel's attorneys' fees and expenses.2 This Court found (in the words of the Supreme Court) that "the conduct of the Defendants rose to the level of bad faith because they had no valid defense and knew it."2" This Court also found that " that conduct also to supports the conclusion that the defendants in2°9 bad faith forced Vendel commence and prosecute [the §225] action." From these findings it follows (in my opinion, inescapably) that the defendants also acted in bad faith by causing Statek to finance their defense, which was found to be a "sham" and "intended to delay the inevitable day of reckoning, and to enable the defendants to continue mulcting the corporation without detection. 2' 1 To say it differently, had defendants not acted in bad faith, the §225 action would never have been prosecuted and there would have been no defense costs for Statek to bear. The same fiduciary duty considerations that justified shifting to the defendants the liability to pay Vendel's fees, also warrant shifting to those defendants the fees and other defense costs they improperly caused Statek to incur. Because there was no "good faith" dispute about the merits of the claim in the §225 action, the defendants are liable to Statek for the fees and expenses it paid to defend that action.

    Volume 6, Number 2 May 2016 is APA Heritage Month! Spring 2016 Ed Gor: Have We Already Seen the Greatest Generation of Chinese Americans? Published almost 20 years ago, journalist and former NBC News broad- caster Tom Brokaw’s book, The Greatest Generation, chronicles what his parents’ generation—those born between 1910 and the mid-1920s— accomplished in youth and adulthood. From interviews and conversations with these women and men, he discusses the sacrifices those men and women made, the bodily harm and suffering in the war to end all wars, their remarkable diligence in building families and businesses, the cour- age they displayed in rehabilitating their physical and emotional war wounds, and the integrity of character and commitment to values that in- fused their lives. As they continued to stare down life’s challenges, they never griped or complained even as their lives were mixed with courage and perseverance, tragedy and sadness, and triumphs and miracles. Entering our 121st year of service, Chinese American Citizens Alliance continues to look ahead at how we see our role in this country by looking back at our history as an organization challenged to address society’s treatment and place for Chinese in the 1890’s. Our Archive Project to gather, categorize, and turn over our recorded history to the Stanford University Libraries remains a major undertaking. Just look for the stories of the Chinese who worked on the Transcontinental Railroad. You won’t find many names or photographs, but you can find their stories written on walls or artwork. We believe that within our own records, there may be documentation linking many C.A.C.A.
