APA Justice conducts monthly meetings and publishes a meeting summary. Participation is usually by invitation only. Due to limited capacity, invited participants are typically active and recognized organizations and concerned individuals. Please contact Jeremy Wu or Vincent Wang if you have interest.
For a brief period from July to September 2020, the meetings were recorded and shared publicly. We have since reverted back to an off-record format unless with explicit permission of the speaker. |

Hong Peng, wife of Kansas University Professor Franklin Tao, spoke about her family's dire situation after Professor Steven Pei's introduction. As the first case of Chinese American scientists going to trial under the "China Initiative," Dr. Franklin Tao and Hong are determined to fight the charges and clear his name even though it has bankrupted their family. This is the first of many cases going the trial under the "China Initiative."
Legal costs are expensive. A GoFundMe campaign at https://gofund.me/5bf4adbe was successfully concluded in February 2021 with the generous donations of over 2,600 donors. |

July 6, 2020 APA Justice Meeting
Professor Margaret Lewis, Seton Hall Law School
Due to heightened interest in Professor Margaret Lewis' talk on the Department of Justice's "China Initiative," the July 6 APA Justice meeting was conducted under the webinar format instead of the customary conference call format. It allowed broader participation.
We thank Professor Lewis for her insightful talk; Professor Xiaoxing Xi for leading off the Q&A discussions; Krystal Ka'ai for her CAPAC updates; John Yang on the latest of the Anti-Asian Profiling Project; and Gregg Orton on NCAPA's 2020 National Policy Platform.
We thank UCA for the use of their Zoom services for this meeting. We also thank Professor Steven Pei and Vincent Wang for their behind-the-scene work to make the meeting possible and successful.
