Remembering Vincent Chin Postcard Project: What does the Vincent Chin case mean to you?

America is a racist, segregated society, and that continues today.

It inspires me to be proud to be of Chinese ethnicity and to do more for the Pan-Asian movement.

Remembering Vincent Chin Postcard Project: What does the Vincent Chin case mean to you?

The case means that there is still room for diversity and protections for minorities to be obtained...more education and law.

It gives me hope that justice must be served & achieved.

Remembering Vincent Chin Postcard Project: What does the Vincent Chin case mean to you?

We must continue to keep issues regarding civil liberties and racial injustice relevant if we want to make progress in our society. We must keep pushing the envelope.

Why Is Pew Being Bashed for Its Study of Asian Americans? | The Big Tent - Advertising Age

interesting perspective from the marketing world
There is a valuable lesson here for marketers, who are often given the chance to explain a campaign deemed as insensitive or insulting only after a brand has been damaged. Do market research. Tune in to your consumers' sensibilities, particularly when issues of race, ethnicity or sexual orientation are involved. Target, but make an effort to reflect nuance, demonstrating to consumers that you respect their diversity. And stay away from stereotypes. Good or bad, you're likely to be hearing from the watchdogs.
