President of 80-20
NON-Asian Americans think that Asian Americans (AsAms) are more
loyal to our respective "old countries?than the USA. See
evidence at http://www.80-20initiative.net/em050301.html
.
So long as that is the case, we are UNLIKELY to win
1) equal opportunity in workplaces, and
2) equal justice.
That is one reason 80-20 urges you to DISPLAY A FLAG in front
of your homes & shops on July 4th.
To see how popular 80-20's flags project is, visit http://www.80-20initiative.net/flagproject.html
. You'll find
* where to buy a flag,
* how to organize a BIG "Sea of Flags" project in your
community,
* how much publicity came from mainstream and ethnic media, &
more will come if you organize your community project,
* what are the contents of 80-20's radio ads in Korean, Vietnamese,
& Chinese (Cantonese and Mandarin). Such ads are broadcast
in many big cities, especially those in CA, thanks to your dues.
Besides being pragmatic, there are REAL REASONS for celebrating
July 4th -- THE BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY IN USA:
* You can make money any way you want, provided it is legal, &
spend it any way you want.
* You can take any political position including criticizing President,
Bush as 80-20 did for his non-enforcement of Executive Order
11246 for Asian Ams, WITHOUT PUNITY.
* You can choose to leave USA if you want; stay if you want.
* You can practice any religion you want, including being a Buddhist
or an atheist
So hoist a flag to celebrate the birth of this GREAT NATION!
HOWEVER, America is not perfect. AsAms don't yet enjoy
1) EQUAL JUSTICE -- recall Wen Ho Lee and Captain James Yee
2) EQUAL OPPORTUNITY in workplaces, on which 80-20 has shocking
data to share with you, after July 4th is over.
Join 80-20. It is EFFECTIVE & ALWAYS FOCUSED on the most
important issues facing AsAms. Any US citizen or P.R. may join.
