Unit 4 Ted Talk Topics Immigrations – Modern Changing Societies Unit 4_Ted talk topics immigrations – modern changing societies Sayu Bhojwani recruits and supports first and second generation Americans to run for public office. In politics, representation matters -- and that's why we should elect leaders who reflect their country's diversity and embrace its multicultural tapestry, says Sayu Bhojwani. Through her own story of becoming an American citizen, the immigration scholar reveals how her love and dedication to her country turned into a driving force for political change. "We have fought to be here," she says, calling immigrant voices to action. "It's our country, too." 1. Listen and take notes on the intro (2 min). Share your content with your mates 2.

Today’s conference creates space to analyze, discuss, and, most importantly, imagine fair representation and active participation of all Americans in a rapidly changing country and world. At our last annual meeting, we kicked off a year of focus on how to best grow informed and equitable participation. Today we are diving a bit deeper into how best to do so. To aid our imagination, we will explore new tools changing the field of civic engagement. Every day media reports on a new challenge to our democratic system, the further erosion of political norms and the decline of deeply held values. We are witnessing how festering attitudes around race, gender and immigration are combining with inadequate or erroneous information to fuel animosity and vitriolic speech. But through all the noise, chaos and rancor -voices of bold and imaginative organizers can be heard.

  • Run Local: the New American Electorate and the 2013 Municipal Elections 1 Message from the Founding Director
    Notes In this report, we use several terms to refer to African, Arab, Asian, Caribbean, and Latino communities and individuals, including co-ethnics, new Americans, and immigrants. We use Hispanic and Latino interchangeably and often refer to the larger Asian American community as APIA (Asian Pacific Islander American). We also refer to non-white candidates and elected officials as co-ethnic candidates, new American candidates, and descriptive representatives. Acknowledgements This report was written by Tyler Reny and Sayu Bhojwani. Alejandro Rodas provided research assistance, and Amanda Church and Paru Shah provided editorial input. The report was designed by Nina Spensley. Run Local: The New American Electorate and the 2013 Municipal Elections 1 Message from the Founding Director 666 West End Avenue, Suite 1B Here at The New American Leaders Project, we are committed to increasing the number of New York, NY 10025 diverse progressive elected officials at local, state, and national levels. We believe this T 212.497.3481 F 212.472.0508 diversity in leadership brings with it an understanding of the needs and concerns of our [email protected] country’s diverse population and helps to create both a representative and responsive www.newamericanleaders.org democracy. We recognize that many elected officials who are not new Americans can, and do, champion policies that benefit immigrant communities. We also acknowledge the unfortunate reality of elected officials who deny their immigrant heritage and worse, advocate for anti-immigrant policy. However, in making the case for more new Americans in elected office in this report, we are particularly focused on those who campaign and govern with sensitivity to their communities’ needs.

  • Coming of Age in Multiracial America: South Asian Political Incorporation
    Coming of Age in Multiracial America: South Asian Political Incorporation Sayu V. Bhojwani Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Sayu V. Bhojwani All rights reserved ABSTRACT Coming of Age in Multiracial America: South Asian Political Incorporation Sayu Bhojwani America has long been a nation of immigrants, but never before has it been as multiracial as it is today. This diversity coincides with an evolving political landscape, in which the role of political parties is declining, and nonprofits are increasingly more relevant in immigrant mobilization. In this multiracial and dynamic political arena, racial and ethnic groups are learning both how to build political power and how to negotiate for power across racial and ethnic lines. Among the many groups engaged in this process of political incorporation are South Asians, and this research looks at their political incorporation through a case study of New York City using elite interviews of nonprofit leaders, elected officials and political candidates. Often portrayed as a model minority, South Asians are perceived as well- integrated into American life. This study sought to assess whether in fact this perception applies to political incorporation, through the exploration of these questions: (1) In what ways do South Asians participate in electoral and non-electoral activities? What does their participation or nonparticipation indicate
