The C.O.W.S. w/ Cathy Dang: Asian Americans and White Supremacy

Cathy Dang visits The Context of White Supremacy. As the Executive Director of Committee Against Anti-Asian Violence (CAAAV), Ms. Dang has lead campaigns for just living and working conditions in immigrant and communities of color for nearly ten years. She has dedicated years of her life to community organizing in immigrant communities. Ms. Dang and CAAAV have been deeply involved with the 2014 shooting death of Akai Gurley. The unarmed black male was shot and killed by a Chinese-American NYPD officer, Peter Liang. Earlier this year, Liang was convicted of manslaughter, but was not sentenced to jail time. Thousands of Asian Americans across the country launched massive protests in support of Peter Liang, suggesting that he was being scapegoated and was also a victim. Ms. Dang has consistently asserted that Liang should be held accountable for killing a US citizen. She used this case to illustrate how "Asian Americans are complicit and complacent to uphold white supremacy." #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p
