Ok you guys. I saw Crazy Rich Asians. And I cried. Through the WHOLE. DAMN. THING. It’s set in Singapore and Malaysia. I’m Chinese Malaysian American. And you guys—a Western major motion picture got it right. They got it all right.

MUST READ in @thecrimson: The Students for Fair Admissions' claim to fight for fairness on behalf of #AsianAmericans @Harvard must not distract the public from their pursuit of a policy agenda that is a zero-sum game for communities of color. YES! @reappropriate @ProfJanelleWong

Here is a ltr from my client Lilian, in custody, to her 7 yr old daughter Britany (in pic with mom long ago). Lilian has no idea where they took Britany and ICE will not tell her. Lilian is about to be deported without her daughter, who she fears she will never see again.

Happy to be included in this extensive piece on #AffirmativeAction by @jeligon in @nytimes, on the diverging views of Chinese immigrants and other Asian Americans.

Will have an @aapidata post with relevant data points on Monday

If you like the North Korea deal, you should love the Iran Deal which included verification. And it should upset you that Trump left that agreement for personal reasons.

@CHSommers tells Davidson audience that women should get electrical engineering degrees to close the wage gap but overlooks the fact that even among electrical engineers, men are paid more than women. The wage gap persists. #whatwaronmen
