UPDATE: Wellesley Students Protest College's Lack Of Commitment To Multicultural Thirteen Asian/Asian American organizations; The over 600 Asian and Asian American students at Wellesley; At least three computers, a fax machine, http://www.wellesley.edu/Activities/homepage/waa/index/projectsf/updateprint.htm

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 12, 2001 Contact: Lin Y. Chan Neha Ummat Marseille Allen April Chang ... Wellesley College 106 Central Street Wellesley, MA 02481 WELLESLEY STUDENTS PROTEST COLLEGE'S LACK OF COMMITMENT TO MULTICULTURALISM A diverse group of students at Wellesley College is protesting the institution's protracted neglect of curricular and student life issues concerning its largest minority population, Asian and Asian American students. Galvanizing this movement is the College's recent decision to deny tenure to Women's Studies Professor Elena Creef , the only Asian American specialist among the faculty. With this decision, Wellesley would not only lose a widely admired teacher, but it would also hinder the development of Asian American Studies . Even though the College publicly celebrates its commitment to curricular diversity, it offers very few courses in Asian and Asian American Studies. Apart from curricular concerns, for the last four semesters, the college has failed to employ and retain a candidate for an Advisor to Students of Asian Descent, a 15-hour/week position with no benefits. Last semester, concerned students took action by collecting over 500 signatures for a petition to raise the position to a full time job. Despite the fact that students of Asian descent comprise over 25 % of the entire student body, the College has refused to change the job description to respond to the students' needs.

GAPSN Home About Us Achievements Events ... Write to Us Gay Nikkei Pioneers By Eric Wat Posted on this website in November 2002 First Printed in Nikkei Heritage , National Japanese American Historical Society, Vol XIV, Number 3, Summer 2002 When I first met and interviewed Tak Yamamoto in 1997, he was almost sixty years old. At the time, he was still coordinating the annual pilgrimage to Manzanar for the Manzanar Committee, an organization he had belonged to since 1975. Tak was only three when his family was forced to relocate to the internment camp in Poston, Arizona. Although he remembered very little of that experience, it was important to him that this page of American history would not be left out of the community memory. So when he met Sue Kunitomi Embrey, the Committee's founding chair, he did not miss the opportunity to join the organization. "She knew I was gay," Tak tells me. "All of the members of the Manzanar Committee and I talked about it, and they got to meet my partner Carl. Then in 1976, I joined JACL. By that time, I was finding some acceptance by straights, Asian Pacific straights. That was important to me." Around the same time, June Lagmay was schooling her professors and fellow students at UCLA about what it meant to be an Asian lesbian. Born in Yokohama, Japan, to a Filipino American serviceman and a Japanese national, June grew up in Echo Park, where she met her partner Rita in high school. She began attending UCLA in 1975. When a sociology class on deviant behavior included homosexuality in its syllabus, June addressed the class and told them she was a lesbian. "The whole topic started to ride on me because what Rita and I had was so natural and so good. In a philosophy class, my paper was on why it is unreasonable philosophically to say that homosexuality is wrong," June remembers. "And born-again Christians would pester me at lunch and tried to convert me. I would get into these voracious philosophic arguments with them. I was so fired up then that if I got people telling me that I was a sinner and going to hell, I liked it. It was like, I got a reaction out of you!"

2000 Highlights ADVOCACY Mobilizing and responding to urgent issues of discrimination. The Asian American Institute serves as one of the leading organizations in the Illinois Asian American Hate Crimes Network , which monitors hate crime cases and mobilizes community members to show a presence during court hearings. Most recently, the Network took action to alert the community about the attacks on Asian American women, translate and disseminate flyers throughout the northern Chicagoland area, and advocate on the community's behalf to all the northern district police departments to become active in preventing further attacks. AAI was recognized by the Chicago Police Department and the Cook County State's Attorney for its efforts during this time. This year the Asian American community has taken a new step in advocating of its fair share of resources and representation. As a follow-up to a successful Candidates Forum in late 1998, the Institute launched a new effort, the Political Empowerment Initiative. Elected officials with a significant number of Asian American constituents were graded by a diverse, non-partisan panel of Asian American leaders who assessed the officials with regard to Asian American outreach, empowerment of Asian Americans (via appointments, public funding, hiring and slating), stance on Asian Americans and redistricting, and awareness of Asian American issues. The assessment report has garnered strong support from community members, and several public officials have requested meeting to discuss the panel's findings and how they might be more accessible to the community.
