Vincent Chin and his Unintended Gift

Fri, 02/19/2010 - 07:10

Today, I was able to catch a screening of Curtis Chin's "Vincent Who?" at the UCLA School of Law and to make sure I would make it to the screening on time, I left two hours in advance but thanks to my terrible driving, atrocious traffic at the 405, and my unfamiliarity with the UCLA campus, what should've taken 25 minutes ended up taking two hours.

Reflecting on MLK Day and APA activism

Mon, 01/18/2010 - 18:27

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day to everyone!

 

It doesn't need to mentioned here how things are so incredibly different it is today compared to what it was like over 50 years ago. Initiated by Rosa Parks and propelled into motion by MLK, the Civil Rights movement significantly transformed the landscape of America as the courage and determination of our Freedom Fighters stood strong in the face of extreme prejudice and hatred.

Sam Yoon Speaks to Volunteers at Election Watch Party 9/22

See video

Sam Yoon speaks to volunteers at the Election Night Watch Party on 9/22. At the expense of video quality, yes that's me screaming behind the phone. Sorry, it was the energy in the room at the moment... After so working so hard for so long for a dream, you had to be part of it! Hope this still works for you.
