40 years later

Why now?

In 1982, the horrific baseball bat beating death of Vincent Chin on the eve of his bachelor party, and the miscarriage of justice that allowed his two white killers to be freed without spending a night in jail, ignited the modern Asian American civil rights movement and built a multiracial, multicultural coalition united for equal justice and human dignity which stands as a landmark of American history.

 

In 2022, 40 years later, the lessons of building solidarity and unity to obtain justice for Vincent Chin brings people together to counter division and hate, and inspire older and younger generations to link arms to work for positive change.
