It may reflect the positive national impact of our Feb. 10 full-page ads on WSJ and Politico.

The article points to the overzealous prosecutions, including the one involving Prof, Anming Hu, which 80-20 helped from day one till he got his job back. The FP "Flash Points" highlights FBI Director Wray, just as 80-20's full-page ads did. Note that the red and bolded FP stands for Foreign Policy.      80-20 spent huge amount of our time and some financial resource to buy those ads. Why? We aim to achieve this kind of positive impact nationwide. Expect more positive impact from our ads to come. Look for a DOJ review report on China Initiative, which will be coming soon.      80-20 takes a unique position on China Initiative. We maintain that the equivalent of China Initiative will always exist, given the tense relations between the U.S. and China. We respectfully but forcefully ask our government to stop the abuse of persons of Chinese descent that comes with China Initiative i.e. stop overzealous prosecution. 80-20 was the first AsAm organization to point to the totalitarian chilling effect created by the wrongful execution of China Initiative and to ask for accountability from DOJ. Only accountability will stop overzealous prosecution.      If you agree with 80-20's style & substance in its bold campaigns, which are almost never taken by other AsAm orgs., please encourage us. Thanking you in anticipation. Speaking Up!      See the sequence of these impactful events in the AsAm community: (1) the Supreme Court accepted hearing our lawsuits against Harvard & UNC, (2) 80-20's bold full-page ads in WSJ & Politico, and (3) The successful SF recall, reported below.      80-20 is directly involved in (1), planned and paid for (2), and morally supports (3), since 80-20 has always sided with high quality high schools.      Many strikingly sharp articles, including 2 from the NY Times, are reporting that AsAms are getting ready to VOTE to safeguard OUR rights. See words like "angry and ire" and "get organized and recall" in the headlines. (A) What Happens When Angry Asian American Parents Get Organized. Feb. 17, 2022 By Jay Caspian Kang the NY Times, and (B) San Francisco recall vote fueled by Asian Voters' ire. Feb. 17, 2022 By Thomas Fuller the NY Time      Politicians beware! Mid-term election is coming. Forward this e-newsletter to your local & state politicians so that they'll give you respect !      Do the AsAm politicians you donate to and/or vote for get involved in important AsAm issues like (1) to (3)? If not, why not?? If not, forward this e-newsletter to them to educate and persuade them. Seek accountability! Do your share! To post, click here.      DONATE S. B.

The benefit is immense.      Please FORWARD, if you don't want the miseries that befell on Wen-ho Lee (1999), Sherry Chen (2012), Prof. Xiaoxing Xi (2015), Prof. Anming Hu (2020), and Prof. Gang Chen (2021) to happen to your family.      Some AsAm think that terminating China Initiative will stop DOJ's abuse of persons of Chinese origin. That is politically naive. So long as the relationship between the US & China is bad, there will always be the equivalent of a "China Initiative" in every cabinet-level office. If we drive it underground, things could become worse.      What we need to stop is the abuse of government power to falsely incriminate persons of Chinese origin. Our government must hold its wrongful agents ACCOUNTABLE. After that, YOU and I will never be bothered by ill-behaving government agents any more, if we don't do wrongs. That is what our full-page ad is all about.      Take out your e-address book now. Start forwarding. Thanx. :-)

Help Win the Supreme Court Case

Here is a logical deduction regarding our prospect:           The lower courts have already ruled against the law suits by           SFFA (Students For Fair Admissions) against Harvard and           UNC (Univ. of NC). Do you think that the Supreme Court           decided to hear the cases again to just affirm the decisions           of the lower courts?      For other positive news about the fulfilling of our generational responsibilities, click here. Unfairly rejected by Harvard?      If YOU were unfairly rejected by Harvard, or if YOU know of students who were unfairly rejected by Harvard, here is YOUR chance to strike a blow for justice. Join SFFA and/or urge them to join SFFA. I and most, if not all, 80-20 Board members are SFFA members. SFFA, headed by Ed Blum, had spent millions of dollars to fight discrimination against AsAm applicants to elite universities. SFFA is still looking for more members who have been unfairly rejected by Harvard recently. Ed Blum repeatedly assured me that members' names will not be revealed in court or in any other way. JOIN TODAY!      Don't sit back and let others fight for you. That is cowardly. Do your share! Prof. Anming Hu got his job back.      From the very beginning, as soon as 80-20 heard that FBI agents lied to incriminate Prof. Anming Hu,           80-20 donated $10,000 to his family & many of you donated           too ......., 80-20 President S. B. Woo wrote 2 strong letters to           Attorney General Garland ....., 80-20 worked with 3 senators           who each sent strong letters to A.G. Garland (they are           Senators Tom Carper of DE, Chris Coons of DE, andTammy           Duckworth of IL) ........ Prof. Hu was acquitted of all charges           by the District Court .......            until the very end, when 80-20 helped to get Anming his "Employment Authorization Document" to get his job back, 80-20 covered Prof. Hu's back.      Please note that a few other AsAm orgs. and elected officials helped Prof. Hu also. 80-20 salutes them. Might the same misery befall YOU?      To make sure that the same devastatingly punishing and unjust prosecution or persecution does not happen to YOU & your family, 80-20 pressed on to ask DOJ for ACCOUNTABILITY*. When gross misconducts of relevant FBI agents are disciplined, then wrongful prosecution/persecution of persons of Chinese origin will stop.      Recall the misery that befell Wen-ho Lee (1999), Sherry Chen (2012), Prof. Xiaoxing Xi (2015), Prof. Anming Hu (2020), and Prof. Gang Chen (2021). Alarmingly, the frequency of such cases may be increasing.      That is why on Feb 10 (Thursday), 80-20 is buying full page ads in the back page of Section A of Wall Street Journal and Politico. We want to call attention to the American people that we seek prompt and certain relief from our government - accountability from DOJ. See a copy of the ad below.            In 4 days, on 2/10 when the ads will be published, 80-20 will issue a "CALL TO ACTION," which I beseech you to partake. The persons you help will be yourself and your loved ones!!!

Great News All Over

However, it meant that YOU and I may have finally lived up to our generational responsibility - providing equal opportunity for education to our children. BIG Changes are Coming - Headlines from Major Media: (1) From New York Times: "Opinion | It's Time to End Race-Based Affirmative Action". (2) From Wall Street Journal: "A Chance to Remove Race From College Admissions". (3) From Washington Post: “This Supreme Court Won’t Uphold College Affirmative Action”. (4) From Los Angeles Times: "Supreme Court signals it may outlaw most affirmative action at universities". The Fight Still Goes on - Against Media Distortion      Our lawsuits against Harvard & UNC were against their "discrimination against AsAm College applicants". Liberal media describes "race preference admissions policy" as an application of Affirmative Action (AA). it is an outrageous distortion. Note that only WSJ's headline, shown above, doesn't mention AA.      As you know, AA is, when all other factors being equal, to give minorities a nod in jobs, educational opportunity, and government contracts, owing to historical wrongs. AsAms suffered historical wrongs, and are therefore entitled to benefit from AA. Instead, AsAms are penalized by AA. How could "discrimination against AsAm students in college admissions" be described an application of AA? What prejudice! Who but 80-20 Has Fought with YOU      Do you know of any national AsAm orgs. or elected AsAm officials standing up for you and fighting for your children's EQUAL opportunity to college admissions??? Almost all of them have been busy fighting on the other side.      However, 80-20 wants to seek out all AsAm orgs. and elected officials at the national or state level to fight together and win this final battle. We sincerely even welcome those who were on the other side in the past. A small and powerless minority must unite to serve our community effectively. Contact me via <sbw@udel.edu> please. Great News 2: DOJ dropped the case against Prof. Gang Chen, who rightfully wants accountability!      80-20 is the only AsAm organization that has publicly and explicitly asked DOJ for accountability. 80-20 asked the Attorney General to (1) apologize, (2) discipline the wrongful FBI agents, and (3) promise the AsAm community that such gross misconduct of its agents will never happen again.      Please (1) see a video on which FBI director Wray humbly apologized, fired the wrongful agent and sincerely promised never to let it happen again to the gymnast community, and (2) read 80-20's letter to Attorney General Garland asking him to deliver the same to the AsAm community.      This open letter will appear as a full-page ad at the back page of Section A of Wall Street Journal and Politico on Feb. 10 (Thursday), at an expense of $140,000. Look for it and spread it far and wide please. A copy of this ad, already submitted to WSJ is shown below.

Garland.      Click here to witness the enthusiasm of AsAms in supporting 80-20, which has the courage, work ethic and resources to appeal to the American people about the inequity that people of Chinese heritage have suffered in the hands of our Department of JUSTICE! 100 posts and 44 donations came to 80-20 after 80-20's last e-newsletter.      Click here to compare with posts of hundreds of our earlier e-newsletters which dated back to July, 2007. Our latest posts discussing how to defend ourselves against DOJ's abuse of government power over people of Chinese origin, is much more focused and enthused.      Note that the 100 posts roughly reflect the 20 to 1 ratio of approval. They reflected the other 400 responses 80-20 received which yielded a 20 to 1 approval ratio.      Woo's letter to the A.G. will be published in either NYT or WSJ plus Politico - a newspaper aimed specifically at our elected officials and their staff. That publication date for both ads will likely be 2/10/2022. See a copy of our ad below.

In contrast, Director Wray dealt with the repeated gross misconducts of his agent against persons of Chinese origin with utter silence and complete neglect.      Remember the well-reported cases involving Sherry Chen (2012), Prof.Xiaoxing Xi (2015) and Prof. Anming Hu (2020)? These cornerstone citizens of Chinese origin have been arrested, handcuffed before their family members, prosecuted, dragged through the torture of legal grinds, although they were completely innocent.      They lost their jobs and bore huge legal fees. Their family members suffered alongside the victims. In addition, a chilling effect, whether created intentionally or not, engulfed our community. Is the community of 5 million persons of Chinese origin equally, perhaps even more worthy of, a similar apology, promise and resolute action firing the wrongful agent(s)?             Do we silently accept such unequal treatment? Or do we resolutely live up to our generational responsibility to speak up and insist on EQUAL treatment? Broadcast our plight to the nation, & if still ignored, to the World?       80-20's Board has considered buying a full-page ad, shown below, to greatly publicize our plight to the nation.

If the words in the ad are too small for you to read, click here and scroll down a little to read my letter to A.G. Garland publicized in our last e-newsletter.      Such an ad is expensive. A full-page ad in the Section A of NYT or WSJ together with another full-page ad in Politico (in order to ensure reaching the Congress) will cost about $150,000. A centerfold ad in the Sec.
