Why Vincent Chin Matters: "Vincent Chin has lived longer in memory than in reality." Chin's murder brought our community together in profound ways, with work that is still ongoing.

Crosses are still burned on the lawns of people minding their own business. Mosques, synagogues and churches still are desecrated and sometimes destroyed. Incidents that belong only in our history books still appear in the pages of our newspapers."
