Long Guang Huang , communications with the Boston Police Department have started and are now ongoing . On July 2nd , re9resentatives of the Committee to Support Long Guang Huang met with Police commissioner Francis '1. Roache and Superintendent Joseoh Carter (Communitv Disorders Unit) to talk about the creation of a "Police Liaison to the Asian Community" . This meeting was a very productive one which gave the Chinese community an OP?Ortunity to voice their concerns . Hopefully, this will be the beginning of a good working relation with the Boston Police Department. The Committee feels that involvement from all sectors of the As1an community is essential to ensure a successful and meaningful 9rocess in the selection of the best candidate to serve as liaison to our community. Your participation in this matter is needed and will be greatly appreciated . The next scheduled meeting will be held on Friday, July 19th at 10 M1 at the Police Headquarters at 154 Berkeley Street. Please call Suzanne Lee at 726-6200 Ext, 5684 to indicate whether you will attend. Thank you for your support and cooperation. ~e look forward to seeing you Fridav. Sincerely , David Nong Suzanne Lee I /~~ 27 Beach St., 3 Fl. Boston MA 021 I I or 90 Tyler St. Boston MA 02 I I I (6 I 7) 426-53 I 3 (617) 542-2574 July 25, 1985 Commissioner Francis M. Roache Boston Police Department 154 Berkeley Street Boston, MA 02116 Dear Commissioner Roache : I am deeply concerned about the lack of sufficient progress in the case of Mr . Long Guang Huang. While the Police Depart­ ment's administrative internal hearing against Detective Kelly has come to a complete stop, the criminal charges against Mr . Huang continue to hang over his head . Why do you continue to allow these charges against Mr. Huang to be pressed forward when witnesses have testified, even in the police hearing , that Kelly struck Mr. Huang 2-3 times without being struck back? I am deeply dissatisfied with the fai lure of the Police Department to resolve Mr. Huang ' s case. Close to three months have passed since the May 1st beati ng. I urge you to move quickly in resolving Detective Kelly's status and in dropping the charges against Mr . Huang. Sincerely, CC: Mayor Raymond Flynn b ,.- llllill., .. ..

Peter Mead's guest was Attorney Thomas Troy, who defended Detective Francis Kelly against disciplinary charges arising from the arrest of Long Guang Huang for solicitation. Earlier that day, the Boston Police Department had announced the suspension of De­ tective Kelly from active duty without pay for one year for using excessive force when he arrested Mr. Huang on May 1, 1985 in China­ town, and for filing an untruthful report atter the incident. Mr. Huang had been acquitted of all charges against him. Anti-Asian sentiment pervaded the entire program. Troy accused Mr. Huang of being a Communist, and implied that Mr . Huang was a collaborator with the Japanese

TRACEY MACLIN I. INTRODUCTION Two years ago, a provocative assertion appeared in the editorial pages of the New York Times. It read: "The black American finds that the most prominent reminder of his second-class citizenship are the police.' The author of this sentence, Don Jackson, knew what he was talking about because he is a former police officer, who also happened to be a black man. Part of the foundation for Mr. Jackson's charge is a deep-seated distrust between police officers and black citizens.
