倡议书 - 召开“纪念废除排华法案80周年阻止历史重演”全美华人社区联席大会
2023-03
《排华法案》由于国会通过了《麦诺森法案》 (Magnuson Act)，或称排华法案废除案，而被废除。该法案由富兰克林·罗斯福总统于1943年12月17日签署成为法律，取消了长达 61 年对华人移民美国的禁令。今年是废除《排华法案》80周年，在美国国内“亚裔仇视”情绪蔓延，美中关系恶化的背景下，纪念这一历史事件有着特殊的意义。
华人社区已经感到了“生存危机”，来自不同时代，地域和政治历史背景的华人移民及其后代是一个利益共同体，需要齐心协力，未雨绸缪，凝聚共识，以主人翁的身份捍卫自己受宪法保护的权益并争取美国各族裔人民的理解和支持，阻止历史重演。
我们倡议在2023年12月17日前后由多个有影响的华裔和亚裔社团联席在首都华盛顿召开全美华人“纪念废除排华法案80周年阻止历史重演”的大会，邀请拜登总统和国会议员参加，并期待白宫就这一历史事件发表声明。我们建议成立一个联席大会筹备委员会，由主要发起社团派代表出任大会的共同主席，策划议程并邀请不同背景的各地华人社团（社区服务、中文学校、艺术中心、基金会、商会、同乡会、校友会、专业协会、艺术家协会等）和个人贤达参加大会。
在美国民主、自由、多元的社会里各种利益集团结盟博弈，多边权力制衡，政治的棋盘不是象棋的楚河汉界，泾渭分明，而是围棋盘上以大局定输赢的相互渗透和抗衡。在为华人社区争权益推动美国社会进步时，我们要学会下围棋的攻略。各类华人组织不是在抢风头、争地位、论角色、排座次，而是在围棋盘上以平等的身份整合资源、积极参与、携手共进、为华人社区的共同利益争取各方面的支持，一步一个脚印地扩大战果，直至胜利。此次联席大会就是围棋战略的一次尝试。

Call for Action - Holding a Joint Conference of the Chinese American Communities Nationwide to Commemorate the 80th Anniversary of the Repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act and to Prevent the Recurrence of History
March 2023
The Chinese Exclusion Act was repealed on December 17, 1943, by the Magnuson Act, also known as the Chinese Exclusion Repeal Act of 1943. This act was signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and lifted the 61-year-old ban on Chinese immigrants to the United States. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. Against the backdrop of the spread of "anti-Asian sentiment" in the United States and the deterioration of US-China relations, commemorating this historical event has special significance.
The Chinese community has already felt a "survival crisis." Chinese immigrants and descendants from different periods, regions, and political backgrounds are a community of shared interests. We need to work together, plan, reach a consensus, and defend our constitutionally protected rights as Americans while seeking understanding and support from people of all ethnicities in the United States to prevent history from repeating itself.
We propose that a joint conference be held in Washington, D.C. around December 17, 2023, by multiple influential Chinese and Asian American organizations to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act and to prevent history from repeating itself. We will invite President Biden and members of Congress to attend and convince the White House to issue an official statement on this historic event. We recommend the establishment of a joint conference planning committee, with representatives from the initiating organizations serving as co-chairs of the conference, to plan the agenda and invite Chinese American organizations from various backgrounds (civic organizations, Chinese language schools, art centers, foundations, chambers of commerce, hometown associations, alumni associations, professional associations, and artist associations) and individuals to participate in the conference.
In the democratic, free, and diverse society of the United States, various interest groups form alliances to advocate and influence the political and economic outcome. The political chessboard is not like the Chinese chessboard with clear boundaries, but rather a Go board, where mutual infiltration and competition determine the outcome. In promoting the rights and interests of the Chinese American community and advancing American society, we need to learn the tactics of playing Go. Various Chinese American organizations should be integrating resources on an equal footing, actively participating, working together, and seeking support from all sources for the common interests of the Chinese American community, rather than competing for attention, status, roles, or seating arrangements. Achieving equal civil rights for all Americans including Chinese Americans and Asian Americans is a difficult long journey during which we must take one step at a time. Holding this joint commemorative conference is a significant step in the right direction.

又是你 － 又来片面的，选择性提起排华法案。反驳你无数次了，你还是选择性的避而不谈一些事实：
你阁下没提的是: 排华法案是共和党总统 Chester A. Arthur 签署的；
共和党什么时候为签署排华法案表示歉意？
还有：
提出法案废除的是民主党议员Warren Magnuson，
并由民主党总统罗斯福 Franklin D. Roosevelt 签署的。
