CLF News: National Security and Asian American Community
如何应对美国当下以“国家安全”为由的经济间谍案越演越烈的困境？在华人生存发展环境恶化情势下如何自我保护，共渡难关？华裔科学家郗小星和陈霞芬的蒙冤经历，给亚裔社区投下阴影，更多人日益担忧自己乃至下一代会成为中美关系冲突的牺牲品。 最近，一份来自百人会发布的《起诉中国间谍：经济间谍法的实证分析》报告发现，1996年至2008年，有17%的经济间谍被告是华人，有8%是其他亚裔；而从2009年至2015年，有52%的经济间谍被告是华人，是之前的三倍多。 当前美国政府已把中国作为一个军事和经济上的竞争对手，在美华裔，尤其是新移民更需要面对这一现实，在科技领域工作的华裔更易引起两国政府的特别关注，甚至在工作场所下载文件，都有可能被视作危及国家安全。 面对这一关系美国亚裔生存发展切身利益的困境，主办方：美国华人联合会（United Chinese Americans, UCA），Sixhues, UCA IL，以及主要协办方：百人会（Committee of 100）、Civic Leadership USA （CLUSA）等多个亚裔组织将推出两期“公民领导力论坛”，以“国家安全问题对亚裔社区的影响”为主题，关注这一敏感话题。 公民领导力论坛分为两部分：第一部分将聚焦“社区信息交流：华裔如何面对中美冲突带来的新环境”，第二部分将关注“社区与执法机关的对话”。 1月19日先期举办的第一部分论坛，将特邀多领域的专家解析法律和社会环境变化所造成的这些现象，通过美国亚裔的历史背景，分析为何华裔担心此类政府行动可能带有基于种族的偏见，了解美国各地社区组织如何与政府部门和执法机关进行沟通，反映种族偏见问题、提出透明度和问责制的要求、与社区进行对话等。论坛将详细回应备受华人关注的敏感话题，切实保护华人权益。 论坛特邀演讲人： • Brian …
