Y-STEP's Blurbs

About me:
Y-STEP is a Bay Area-based racial justice education and training program for white youth. Our mission is to build the collective responsibility of white people to confront racism and white supremacy by working primarily with white youth through workshops and trainings. Our vision is that Y-STEP will ignite inspiration and courage in other white youth and adults to stand up for racial justice, and continue to build a legacy of accountable white people planting seeds of hope, healing, and resistance.

seoulflower	May 30 2007 7:29 PM STOP HATE CRIMES Asian Pacific Americans for Progress & The Joseph Ileto Hate Crimes Prevention Fellowship Present the Academy Award-Nominated Documentary by Christine Choy & Renee Tajima-Pena “Who Killed Vincent Chin?” A Free Screening, Panel Discussion & Reception Marking the 25th Anniversary of Vincent Chin’s Murder National Center for the Preservation of Democracy Across the Plaza from the Japanese American National Museum in Little Tokyo 111 N. Central Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90012 (213) 830-1880 Panel Speakers to include: Stewart Kwoh, APALC; Robin Toma, LA County Human Relations Commission; Hamid Khan, South Asian Network, and more Sunday, June 24, 2007 2:00-5:00 p.m. See how this tragic story about racial justice, civil rights, and the value accorded by society to people of color is as timely today as it was 25 years ago. On June 19, 1982, a 27-year-old Chinese-American, Vincent Chin was celebrating his last days of bachelorhood in a Detroit bar. After getting into an argument with Chin, Ron Ebens, a Chrysler Motors foreman shouted ethnic insults and then bludgeoned Chin to death with a baseball bat. In a travesty of justice, Ebens was tried and let off with a suspended sentence and a small fine. Outrage filled the community, inspiring civil rights protests nationwide that marked the rise of the pan-Asian American Movement Co-Sponsored by IMAGINASIAN TV, NATIONAL CENTER FORTHE PRESERVATION OF DEMOCRACY, ASIAN PACIFIC AMERICAN LEGAL CENTER, LOS ANGELES COUNTY HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION, SOUTH ASIAN NETWORK, AND MUSLIM PUBLIC AFFAIRS COUNCIL. This program is part of a National Town Hall on Hate Crimes series June 19-24, 2007 in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Detroit, Grand Rapids, and Chicago. Asian Pacific Americans for Progress is co-sponsoring screenings and panels around the country with many local organizations. For complete listings, visit APAforProgress.org.
