"Bridging 1982 to 2022" features an intergenerational panel of Asian American activists, including those who were instrumental on campus and local organizing efforts after the murder of Vincent Chin in 1982 and young Asian American activists who have led efforts to combat racism on campus today. The conversation will facilitate a space for discussion to address the interconnections between the murder of Vincent Chin and the recent incidents of anti-Asian violence in Atlanta, Indianapolis, and elsewhere.
The panel will be moderated by PBS Newshour Community Correspondent Frances Kai-Hwa Wang.
