- **Event Description**: Author Scott Kurashige joins UC Berkeley Geography Professor Charmaine Chua for a conversation about the history of pan-ethnic coalition.About this EventVincent Chin was killed in 1982 by white men with ties to the auto industry who blamed Japan for the loss of American jobs.
