Vincent Who? Filim - Get your free copy today!

Wed, 08/18/2010 - 11:52

It all started with a simple goal: to remember Vincent Chin.

In 2007, on the 25th anniversary of his death, Asian Pacific Americans for Progress organized a series of fourteen townhalls around the country to discuss the impact of his life and legacy. We gathered many of the leading civil rights leaders in our community to ask how far had we come and how far we had yet to go. From those discussions came our award-winning documentary, "Vincent Who?", which has now toured to over 130 colleges, libraries and law firms around the country.

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.

Affter Vincent Chin, the murder of Filipino American postal worker Joseph Ileto is arguably the most high-profile hate crime committed against an Asian American. On August 10, 1999, Buford Furrow, a self professed white supremacist, went on a rampage at the North Valley Jewish Community Center where he shot and injured five individuals.
