    Extractions: September 11, 2001 is one of those dates in history that will be remembered for a long time, certainly by the millions who witnessed the collapse of the Twin Towers through their television screens over and over again. For Middle Eastern and South Asian Americans, “9/11” will likewise signify a shocking and sad day, but it will also be the milestone that marks the beginning of an era of heightened backlash. For members of these communities, the tragic events ushered in a period characterized by hate crimes, discrimination, profiling and harassment at the hands off the American public. They also experienced feelings of anxiety, fear and alienation generated by the U.S. government’s dragnet aimed to catch terrorists. Purposefully or inadvertently, the series of initiatives singled out Arabs and/or Muslims for profiling. Immediately after the attacks, individuals who looked Middle Eastern or had Arabic- or Islamic-sounding names, regardless of the accuracy of these perceptions, became the scapegoats of citizens’ anger and vengeance. Hate crimes and bias incidents skyrocketed in the weeks following the terrorist acts and then ebbed, but remained at higher levels than the pre-9/11 period. Murders and other extreme forms of backlash subsided probably due to the calls of public officials, including the President of the United States, who condemned such criminal actions. President George W. Bush visited the Islamic Center of Washington D.C. on September 17, 2001, warning Americans not to confuse terrorists with Muslims and calling for more tolerance and understanding.

Share By Tao Hsieh World Journal 30 March 2010 Translated from Chinese by Connie Yik Kong The Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF) released a monitoring report on the 2010 Census, on March 29th. The report, which collected data and complaints about the Census from twelve states across the nation, pointed out several problems areas on how the Census worked with Asian Americans, such as that it did not provide translation in Cantonese and Taishanese. AALDEF has already forwarded the report results to Robert M. Groves, head of the Census Bureau. AALDEF is asking the Census Bureau to improvement on the following eight issues: • Although the telephone questionnaire assistance center provides translation in Chinese, it is limited to Mandarin. It does not provide help to elder Chinese who only speak Cantonese or Taishanese. The limited translation service is even worse for other ethnic minority groups. There are complaints that the Korean operators did not know enough Korean to answer questions and that Vietnamese operators simply read directly from the Vietnamese census handbook. • People complained that the Census Bureau staff officers have stopped community organizations from helping people fill out the census questionnaire. According to AALDEF, as long as people are actively seeking assistance, community organizations' personnel should be able to help fill out the form.
