UCA Protest Outside DOJ and Press Conference for the Victims of the DOJ’s China Initiative–An Urgent Community Notice

I. UCA Protest Outside DOJ:

After a series of setbacks, an embarrassed U.S. Department of Justice is having some real headaches with its “China Initiative,” which is facing an uncertain future, likely to be eviscerated or revamped. This is largely due to the relentless joint efforts of people from all walks of life in the United States and the Chinese American community. At this critical moment, UCA will organize a silent protest outside the Department of Justice building against the unfair treatment and discrimination of Chinese scientists by the law enforcement. 

• Time of Protest: Wednesday, January 12, 2022 @11:30am-12:30pm EST.  

• Location of Protest: 250 9^th Street, NW (corner of 9^th St, NW & Pennsylvania Ave, NW). 

We look forward to the participation of Chinese friends in the Greater Washington D.C. Metro area and nearby regions. Please join us in the protest to show our active civil participation, to express our care for each other, and to seek justice, equal and fair treatment for all.  

If you are interested in participating in the protest, please call: 202-642-5060, or email info@ucausa.org.

II. UCA Online Press Conference: 

Shortly after the protest, UCA will hold an online “Press Conference for the Victims of the DOJ’s China Initiative” on Wednesday, January 12, 2022 @ 2:00-3:15pm EST. 

• Time of Press Conference: Wednesday, January 12, 2022 @ 2:00-3:15pm EST.
