如何进军美国政治主流

应杨德清兄之邀约， 週六上午再度和州议员吴元之、 白先慎教授、 黄登陆兄、 孙铁汉兄及杨宝华兄等一起座谈， 讨论德州147 案之得失及今后我们努力之方向。 大家在近三小时之讨论中， 由实际参加抗议活动游行的施慧伦及罗玲做了详尽之报告 ，结论是暂时之胜利， 决不可终止我们今后之继续努力和奋斗。

我们在此要继续呼吁华裔同胞和选民， 我们唯有自救才会得到其他族裔的鼎力协助 ，吴元之议员也承认 ，这次反华的147 法案如果没有得到非裔、 拉丁裔及其他亚裔声援和拔刀相助， 决不可能会影响到该案之消失。

在此困难重重之环境中， 我们应该立即採取两大方向进行规划， 首先是组织动员 ，如今在格林议员之倡议下， 近半年来我们已经组成德州多族裔阵线 ，近三十位发起人已经捐献经费进行法律註册登记程序， 大约有三十个社团将成為发起人， 其次是经费之筹措决不可缺， 未来希望每年有十万元经费来请专人负责会务之推动。 

在非裔社区领袖狄克逊之倡议下， 在美南电视环球剧坊将由他主持每週一次的社区公共议题线下及线上座谈会， 透过社群媒体现埸转播及平面媒体之报导， 全面扩大社会影响力。

今天我们面临如此艰难之挑战 ，大家一定要站出来， 共同為我们的生存権益而奋战。

How To Enter Into American Politics

At the invitation of Brother Yang, on Saturday morning we had another discussion with State Representative Gene Wu and Professor Pei, Peter Huang, Harry Sun and Kevin Yang to discuss the gains and losses of Texas Bill 147. After almost three hours we asked Lou Ling and Helen Shi to make a detailed report of the rally. The conclusion is that this is temporary victory. We must not to stop our continued efforts and struggle into the future. 

We must continue telling our Chinese American friends that it is only by virtue of our self-help and efforts that we can get the full assistance of the other ethnic groups.

Representative Wu admitted that when we got help from the African American and Latino communities, this was the major reason Bill 147 did not pass. 

In this difficult environment, we suggest there are two major steps we need to take now. The first is that we have to form the coalition as a permeant platform to mobilize all the actions into the future.

The second thing is that we need to raise funds of at least $100,000 per year specifically for hiring a dedicated person to run the organization. 

In the meantime, we need to have a weekly talk show to discuss all our problems in the city. 

This  is the time we all need to be united and stand up for our rights and our survival.
