Vincent Chin was a 27-year-old Chinese American raised in Metro Detroit who was beaten to death with a baseball bat a week before his wedding, June 19, 1982, by two autoworkers, Ronald Ebens and Michael Nitz, who blamed the Japanese for the U.S. auto industry’s troubles. Ebens and Nitz were sentenced to 3 years probation and fined $3,780. Neither man spent a single day in jail for beating Vincent Chin to death. The movement gave a resonant political voice to previously silent Asian American communities across the nation and sparked the Asian American civil rights movement.
