Rohnert Park police argued that Kao's shooting was justified on the grounds that he posed a \"martial arts\" threat to the officer.' Michael Lynch, one of the two officers at the scene, described Kao as a \"ninja fighter.\"2 In response to the killing, the Asian Law Caucus became involved in the Kao case to pursue legal and social remedies to hate crimes and hate violence. The Asian Law Caucus played a pivotal role in organizing community involvement to seek a legal remedy to Kao's death through the formation of the Justice for the Kao Family Coalition. A strong community-based response was critical to the Asian Law Caucus in order to \"bolster\" the potential for a legal remedy in the Kao case. This Essay argues that Asian American public interest organizations are simultaneously marginal and central to mainstream American legal frameworks. They occupy an \"interstice\" between formalized legal frameworks and the methods and functions of community-based public advocacy. The term \"interstice\" describes the proactive political practices and the role of Asian American public interest organizations as intermediaries between their locally based ethnic community interests and official government legal frameworks and institutions. It represents a \"political space\" where public advocacy in what is normally considered the \"margins\" of law, is brought to bear on the \"center\" or mainstream of law.","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"158 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132948374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kua","doi":"10.15779/Z38H006","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15779/Z38H006","url":null,"abstract":"In 1986, when Eddy Zheng was sixteen years old, he and two of his friends broke into the home of a Chinese immigrant family in San Francisco, hoping to find a safe filled with money and other valuable items.' When there was no safe to be found, their ill-advised armed home invasion quickly developed into a six-hour debacle involving hostage2 taking, kidnapping, and extortion. The criminal escapade finally ended when the police pulled over Zheng and one of his cohorts for driving without their headlights on. Zheng, who was tried as an adult, eventually pleaded guilty to robbery, kidnapping, and possession of a firearm.' He was sentenced to seven years to life with the possibility of parole for his involvement. Zheng was released in 2007 after serving nineteen years of his life sentence in state prison and nearly two years in the custody of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement He now works as a project coordinator for the Community Response Network for Asian Pacific Islanders (CRN-API) 4 at the Community Youth Center of San Francisco. In his day-to-day work, Zheng strives to prevent youth from making the same mistakes he did as a teenager. He believes this goal requires a coordinated effort among community based organizations, parents, schools, and local law enforcement to combat the underlying struggles that immigrant youth often face-living simultaneously in two cultures, navigating the public school system, and struggling to find a sense of belonging and camaraderie. Zheng's story can best be described as one of redemption and transformation. It is often said that prison changes a person, and Zheng is a testament to that fact-but not in the way one might think. Although prison is, more often than not, a place where despair overwhelms hope, Zheng has","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"7 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114409898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Harrington","doi":"10.15779/Z38CR5NC9Q","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15779/Z38CR5NC9Q","url":null,"abstract":"In the ongoing case of Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, Edward Blum is attempting once again to use Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA), his anti-affirmative action organization, to further limit the use of race as one factor in holistic admissions processes. But this time, Blum purports to be acting on behalf of a group of anonymous Asian Americans. This strategy, designed to dismantle all affirmative action policies in selective college admissions, is an attempt to drive divisions between Asian Americans and other people of color to increase white access and entitlement to highly selective universities. SFFA falsely claims that Asian Americans are discriminated against in Harvard’s admissions process, basing its claims on misleading information and launching a deceptive media campaign against affirmative action. In the summer of 2018, 531 social scientists with expertise on Asian Americans, race and equity, or college admissions, filed an amicus curiae brief with the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts in support of Harvard University’s holistic admissions process. The brief details the myriad ways in which the plaintiff’s claims are false and misleading and provides evidence that Asian Americans in fact benefit from holistic review. In this article, the authors of the brief provide background information on the case itself, the legal and social context of the case, as well as the importance of social scientists’ participation in producing research relevant to the topic at hand. Following the preface, the brief is printed in full as originally filed, and edited only to comport with the format of this journal. Trial proceedings in the case concluded in early 2019. As of the publishing date of this article, the case remains pending before the district court.","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114640338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
