业,现作教授,他是研究社会学的,我同她提起周末的aa讨论,她非常感兴趣,而且讲他劳
工在九十年代时曾做过harvard admission diversity 的研究.更巧的是她是犹太人,所
以非常了解our current situation, which is very similar to the situation Jews
experienced. she encouraged us to voice out, 因为现在有许多反歧视法,which
moreorless is in favour of us. but back in the jews days, these acts were
not existing. 周末讨论的启发加上她对此事的看法, 我想分享一下我的计划.
1. 给所在辖区的州议员和国会议员写信,提出我们的opinion, concern and
suggestion. 我现在正在起草.建议持有相同观点的网友都能行动起来,如果议员们一年
收到两封这样的信,他当是头疼感冒,如果他每天受到两封,他会当是哮喘,会重视起来.
一旦有议员(出于他的政治前途也好,出于体恤民情也好)能把此事提到议程上来,我们的
目的就达到了一半.也许想法很天真,但是again, if you do it, you'll get 50/50
chance; if you don't do anything, you will never get anything.
2. 改变公众形象 中国人的强项是念书,我们受到很多的教育是自己不给社会增加负担
就好,不要多管闲事.所以很多中国人始终生活在自己的圈子里,我们要走出自己的世界,
服务社区,帮助周围需要帮助的人.从pto,chaperon,class parents, volunteer coach,
local charity you name it....用我们的行动证明我们不仅有IQ, 也有EQ,也会回馈社
会.我曾serve as a board member in my sons swimming team for three years, 虽
然花去很多业余时间,但是看到孩子们在游泳池中慢慢长大,真是很快乐.同时也会交到
很多朋友.白人和犹太人在这方面做的比我们好很多.
3. 转变观念 能进到top college 自然好,但是鹤立鸡群也不是坏事.犹太妈妈告诉我,
during those days, jews were diversified to different colleges, it ended up
that the lower level colleges made big progress on their academic record due
to jews joining. wherever you are, you are just a little fish in a pond.
4. join 80-20 i am not ad for them, this is purely my own opinion. we need
an organization to represent us. 80-20 starts this already and is on a
right direction. 我们也需要培养自己的政治势力.不问政治终究是要吃亏的.we are
making donations anyways every year, this is money worth spending.
5. show demonstration during the supreme court discussion period in Oct, if
possible.
我们做这些不一定会有回报,但从长远看,会surely benefit the chinese community
in general. your opinion is very welcome! |
