http://www.usdoj.gov/opa/pr/2004/June/04_crt_381.htm

Extractions: WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Justice Department today announced that it has entered into a consent decree with New York City and various school district officials, settling allegations of civil rights violations and deprivations of equal educational opportunities at Brooklyns Lafayette High School. The governments complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, alleges that school district officials deliberately ignored severe and pervasive harassment directed at Asian-American students by their classmates. This harassment allegedly included both physical and verbal abuse, including multiple violent assaults. According to the complaint, students regularly threw food, cans and combination locks at Asian-American students, while shouting ethnic slurs. Additionally, the government alleged that school district officials failed to take appropriate action to help students overcome language barriers that impeded their equal participation in the schools instructional program, as required by the Equal Educational Opportunities Act of 1974. A school district cannot stand aside and ignore severe and pervasive racially motivated harassment of an ethnic or language minority, said R. Alexander Acosta, Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. Fifty years after

Extractions: NATIONAL JAPANESE AMERICAN CITIZENS LEAGUE, OLDEST ASIAN AMERICAN CIVIL RIGHTS ORGANIZATION, DONATES ARCHIVES TO JAPANESE AMERICAN NATIONAL MUSEUM LOS ANGELES.-The National Japanese American Citizens League (JACL), the oldest and largest Asian American civil rights and human rights organization in the country, announced that its National Board voted to donate its archives to the Japanese American National Museum, whose collection of material culture documenting the Japanese American experience is the largest in the world. The JACL was founded in 1929, partly in response to anti-Japanese sentiment in America. At various times in the next 70 years, it lobbied Congress to either repeal discriminatory laws or to pass bills to correct historic wrongs. For example, the JACL led efforts to pass the McCarran-Walter Act in 1952, which finally allowed immigrants from Asia to become naturalized U.S. citizens. In the 1980s, the JACL was among several groups that advocated for redress for Japanese Americans for their unlawful incarceration during World War II. The Civil Liberties Act of 1988 provided an official apology and individual reparations for eligible recipients. The Japanese American National Museum's mission is to promote understanding and appreciation for America's ethnic and cultural diversity by preserving and telling the story of Americans of Japanese ancestry. Founded in 1985, the National Museum opened the doors to its Historic Building in 1992 and completed a $45 million project by opening its 85,000-square-foot Pavilion in 1999.

Extractions: janicel@aaja.org The Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) will hold a public forum to examine the role of journalism in the Asian American civil rights movement throughout the past 20 years, including the crucial role that media plays today. The forum, "Remembering Vincent Chin: A Conversation About Civil Rights and Journalism," will be held at the Pangborn Design Gallery in Detroit, Michigan on April 28 from 6:30 â 9:30pm. Vincent Chin was the Chinese American killed in 1982 in Detroit by two autoworkers frustrated with the success of the Japanese auto companies. The case galvanized the Asian American community, captured the mediaâs attention and became a battle cry for Asian American civil rights. "Since 9/11, this battle has gained renewed attention as people of Middle Eastern and South Asian descent, as well as immigrants and Muslims, have become the target of aggression, profiling and questionable government detention," said Rene Astudillo, executive director of AAJA.

Asian Americans in Metro Boston: Growth, Diversity, and Complexity In the late 20th century, statistics were used to portray Asian Pacific Americans as a monolithic Model Minority, a community in which everyone was well-educated and well-off, a concept that is often used to drive a wedge between minority communities. Mindful of the potential of statistics to perpetuate myths and misunderstandings about Asian Americans, we are determined in this report to utilize data drawn from the 2000 U.S. Census to paint as accurately as possible a portrait of the often ignored and misrepresented Asian American community in Metro Boston.

They used the money to further their efforts to educate Asian American mental health and human services professionals in how mental health services and policies are developed.
