Title A name given to the resource CAAAV <em>Voice</em> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1988-2008 Description An account of the resource <p>Founded in 1986 as the Committee Against Anti-Asian Violence, CAAAV Organizing Asian Communities has a rich history of advocacy and organizing in New York City’s Asian and Asian American immigrant and refugee communities. This collection of CAAAV newsletters documents over 25 years of local and national justice struggles around issues of police brutality and militarization; workers’ rights; housing, gentrification and displacement; and access to social services and electoral power. This archive puts the rich history of resistance of Asian American communities in New York City, the United States, and abroad at the fingertips of community members activists, organizers, researchers, scholars, artists.</p> <p>This Reading Guide is a companion for visitors of the newsletter collection. The collection currently includes 29 editions of the <em>Voice</em> newsletters, which CAAAV published from 1989 to 2008. CAAAV began publishing the Voice to report on recent events and provide important updates about its campaigns and organizing efforts. These newsletters are a testament to community organizing as a powerful strategy for marginalized and disenfranchised communities in the fight for justice and equity. Since its founding, CAAAV remains firmly rooted in local, national, and international struggles against racism, imperialism, and state violence.</p> <br /> <h2>Themes</h2> <p>The <em>Voice</em> document the issues that continue to face Asians and Asian Americans today. The newsletters covered organizing efforts around Phillip Kaufman’s racist film Rising Sun; corporate media bias and the so-called Los Angeles Riots in 1992; post-9/11 racial profiling and surveillance of New York City’s pan-Asian communities; unjust deportation laws; national labor rights; homophobic policies affecting queer youth; and countless other struggles. Prominent themes that emerge throughout two decades of the Voice include racial violence; police brutality and other systemic state violence; city governance; workers’ rights; particularly of undocumented workers; news from CAAAV’s partners, and urgent calls to action. These and other themes continue to shape CAAAV’s organizing model, campaigns, and political framework.</p> <br /> <h2>Anti-Asian Violence</h2> <p>CAAAV emerged as part of a national response to rising anti-Asian violence across the country in the 1980s, including the violent hate crime and murder of Detroit native Vincent Chin in 1982. As part of its commitment to addressing the root causes of violence and challenging the structures of power between the city government, police, and New York City’s communities of color, CAAAV has always worked to support Asian American communities throughout the city and in solidarity with peoples’ struggles abroad. Through issue campaigns and coalition work, CAAAV has successfully pressured decisionmakers and leaders, such as the police commissioner, housing authorities, and other powerful entities to create lasting change for its constituents and the larger community.</p> <p>The <em>Voice</em> reported many instances of anti-Asian violence in New York City and in the country through Fall 1998. This segment began as “NYC Update”, “Anti-Asian Violence Nationwide,” and later, beginning in Spring 1993, they were generally called “New York City Incidents” or “National Incidents” and included incident reports of police brutality, profiling, abuses of power, and other forms of state violence, creating an important record of the continued history of anti-Asian violence in New York City and throughout the United States.</p> <br /> <h2>Police Brutality</h2> <p>The <em>Voice</em> reported many instances of police brutality. For example, the <a href="https://caaav.org/fall-1992">Fall 1992</a> issue highlighted the Rodney King case in LA, as well as identifying 1992 as the ten-year anniversary of the Vincent Chin case in Detroit. Additionally, many local instances of police violence appear in many vignettes under “New York City Incidents.” Some of the ways in which CAAAV had resisted and fought against police violence, had been through “Know Your Rights” campaigns, involvement in Civilian Complaint Review Board, and grassroots organizing efforts.</p> <p>In <a href="https://caaav.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/voice_fall_1989.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fall 1989</a>, the <em>Voice</em> featured an article on Spike Lee’s iconic film Do the Right Thing and its representation of the political climate of the 1990s during New York City’s mayoral race. The same issue ran an election guide with actual NYC mayoral candidates’ platforms on issues that directly affected CAAAV members on the ground. CAAAV called on readers to pressure local leaders to address critical issues of widespread police brutality and racial violence.</p> <br /> <h2>Government Accountability</h2> <p>New York City’s elected officials play an important role in policies and procedures that have a daily impact on local residents, and CAAAV is committed to holding these officials accountable.</p> <p>For example, the <a href="https://caaav.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Voice_Fall_1998.pdf">Fall 1998</a> issue of the <em>Voice</em> reported the discriminatory impact of former NYC Mayor Giuliani’s so-called “Quality of Life” and “Broken Windows” policies (<a href="https://caaav.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Voice_Spring_1995.pdf">currently being revived by the NYPD</a>). The policies claimed to make streets safer for a better city for New Yorkers, but in reality, was a policing campaign that targeted and criminalized poor and working class people of color rather than addressing the structural conditions that create injustice.</p> <br /> <h2>Workers' Rights</h2> <p>Recognizing the importance of labor rights, CAAAV organized around workers’ rights, for all kinds of work and immigration status. In Spring 1994, the Voice reported on Saleem Osman – a CAAAV organizer for the Lease Drivers Coalition – and his experience with police brutality, connecting themes of labor, police brutality, and organizing to keep the city accountable. Saleem Osman represents how labor rights were additionally central to CAAAV’s mission to support poor and working-class people of color.</p> <p>Between 1989 and 2008, some of the themes related to labor in the Voice included sex work, undocumented workers, domestic workers, garment worker, and working women. One of CAAAV’s organizing arms, beginning in Summer 1996, was the Women Workers Project, which originally began to address sex work and to bring sex workers together for collective action. The WWP continued to be a forum from which to organize working women.</p> <br /> <h2>Acronyms</h2> CCRB – Civilian Complaint Review Board<br />EEOC – Equal Employment Opportunity Commission<br />AALDEF – Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund<br />CCOC – Chinese Community Organizing Committee<br />KCOC – Korean Community Organizing Committee<br />YLP – Youth Leadership Program<br />HUD – U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development<br />TLC – Taxi and Limousine Commission <p>The following are CAAAV Committees.

In October 1997, a non-English speaking Korean woman who is known publicly as "Mrs. O," survived rape by her employer and immigration sponsor. The Queens District Attorney's office denied Mrs. O a translator and the presence of a woman, then closed her case without another interview. CAAAV members formed the Justice for Mrs. O Coalition to support Mrs. O, pressure the D.A. to fully prosecute her rapist, and work with Korean organizations to break the silence around sexual assault in the community.

The English signs read, "Health care is a human right" and "Protect our rights to equal health care." CAAAV's Youth Leadership Project (YLP) organized actions at Montefiore in protest of the clinic's decision to eliminate Southeast Asian translation services. The rollback of healthcare access at Montefiore, which served a growing Vietnamese and Cambodian population in the Northwest Bronx, came at a time when poor communities of color were already struggling with the consequences of devastating welfare reforms and cuts to public services.
