我們華亞裔面對之困境

隨着國內政治之不斷變化， 對於華亞裔在美國之處境愈見艱難。 主要原因是我們人數不多， 在選舉中之選票影響不大 ，而且我們又不十分團結， 因此在政治上屢遭政客們之欺壓。

上週以來， 由格林議員召集了各族裔社區領袖聚會，商討如何團結起來，來共同面對未來之挑戰， 共同捍衛我們在政治上之権力。

近年來， 許多政客對華亞裔之歧視已經白熱化， 其中包括禁止購買土地， 限制上公立大學 ，對學術界人士之偵查， 就連國會議員趙美心對國家之忠誠度都被人怀疑 。

今天我們大家努力之方向就是共同組建一個政治聯盟來發揮大家的力量， 其中包括支持我們理念的各界政商領袖， 華亞裔、 非裔、 拉丁裔、 猶太裔及阿拉伯裔 ，這股力量之結合絕對會震撼社會。

這個政治聯盟需要各界人士之積極參與， 有錢出錢有力出力， 我們必須建立堅實之組織架構， 能夠動員群眾宣示我們的诉求。

大家要體認我們各掃門前雪之时代已經過去了， 不止是我們這一代。

The Dilemma Of The Chinese Asian Community

With the continuous changes in domestic politics, the situation of Chinese Asians in the United States is becoming more and more difficult. The main reason is that our voting base is not big enough and we are not strongly united, so we are repeatedly bullied by the politicians in politics. 

Last week Congressman Al Green convened a gathering of community leaders of various ethnic groups to discuss how to unite to face the challenges of the future and jointly defend our political power together. 

In recent times, some older politicians have discriminated against Chinese Americans, including trying to ban the buying of land in Texas and even restricting access to public universities. Even Congresswoman Judy Chu ‘s loyalty to the country has been questioned. 

Today the direction of our efforts is to form a political alliance to give full play of everyone’s strengths and inputs, including politically and get the support of business leaders from all walks of life who support our idea. Our Alliance will be made up of a combination of Asian, Latino, African American, Jewish and Arab communities. 

The Alliance structure will need    to be established on a solid organizational basis that can  mobilize the masses to declare 

our issues and our rights to be recognized by the political powers and meet our demands. 

We are here to work for ourselves and also for our next generation.
