This post was updated at 6:50 p.m. Students and faculty held a rally Monday to protest racial and gender discrimination on campus in response to a racist and sexist flier sent to UCLA’s Asian American Studies Center last week. “It’s not a political issue, it is personal,” said Jessy Nguyen, a third-year psychobiology student who is part of the Vietnamese Student Union. About 80 students crowded in front of Kerckhoff Hall for the event, which was organized by the Asian Pacific Coalition at UCLA, the Vietnamese Student Union and numerous other student groups. On Wednesday, the Asian American Studies Center received an anonymous flier filled with racist and sexist slurs directed against Asian women, Mexican men and women, and white men and women. “The flier may be the work of a cowardly individual or a misguided set of individuals, but the larger notions of race, gender and sexuality referenced in the flier speak to their enduring significance as core points of contention in this nation,” said David K. Yoo, director of the Asian American Studies Center, in a speech during the protest. The students who spoke at the rally claimed that the recent flier was not an isolated incident, but an example of recurring acts of discrimination against students of color on campus. On Feb. 1, a similar flier was sent to USC’s Asian Pacific American Student Services. The anonymous flier was filled with “racist and sexist slurs directed at a number of communities,” according to a statement from Mary Ho, the director of Asian Pacific American Student Services at USC. The university’s Department of Public Safety was notified about the flier and will keep the organization updated on further developments, according to the statement, which was released on Friday. UCLA students at Monday’s rally referenced a Youtube video posted in 2011 by former UCLA student Alexandra Wallace called “Asians in the Library” that included what many perceived to be racist commentary. They also referred to the vandalism of a Vietnamese Student Union sign in 2012 with racial and sexist slurs. “This was just one of the many events that have happened at UCLA in the four years I’ve been here, and it may seem like a joke, but it really is a threat to our communities,” said Christine Chu, a fourth-year sociology student and a staff member of the Vietnamese Student Union. The student groups released a press statement on Thursday after receiving the flier, calling the administration to support an inclusive community at UCLA. The statement was signed by the Asian Pacific Coalition, Pacific Islands Students Association, Samahang Pilipino, the Vietnamese Student Union and dozens of other student groups from UCLA and other universities. Students at the rally said they were disappointed with the UCLA administration’s responses to past incidents of discrimination on campus and called for the implementation of a diversity-related general education requirement. UCLA is currently the only school within the UC that does not have this requirement. “It’s a shame that UCLA is a university that prides itself on diversity, yet have such things happen on campus,” Nguyen said. Janina Montero, vice chancellor of student affairs at UCLA, also spoke at the protest, condemning the discrimination and expressing the school administration’s support for the minority community. “This is a painful and frustrating incident that affects all the communities at UCLA, and I understand that these hateful experiences affect students’ perception of their place in the university,” Montero said. “What really matters is that everyone has a strong and full academic and personal experience on campus, and it is the university’s role to ensure every student fully belongs and is respected,” Montero said. For Live Maluia, the president of the Pacific Islands Students Association at UCLA, the hateful slurs on the flier remind her of experiences with racial profiling near her home in Compton, Calif., where she said she was routinely stopped on the streets and bullied by police for being Samoan. “UCLA was supposed to be my safe haven, that’s why I left home to come here,” Maluia said. “I shouldn’t have to worry about my safety on campus.” A police investigation is underway regarding the flier incident. UCLA is also working to address the unpleasant experiences based on issues of race on campus by providing avenues for dialogue and support, Montero said. Protesters said the racial discrimination also extends to the faculty on campus. “Unlike the previous vandalism incident, this time the racial slurs were posted directly to faculty at the Asian American Studies Center, and it is an attack on the most respected of our community,” said Anh Nguyen, president of the Vietnamese Student Union. In his Asian American Studies class, Nguyen recalls students complaining about the accent of a Vietnamese professor, commenting that the professor “can’t teach” and “doesn’t belong here”. A report released last year found UCLA’s policies and procedures for responding to incidents of perceived bias, discrimination and intolerance involving faculty to be inadequate. In response, the University announced plans to hire a full-time discrimination officer, and to look into its policies. Correction: Live Maluia, the president of the Pacific Islands Students Association at UCLA, said the slurs on the flier remind her of occasions when she was stopped and bullied by police for being Samoan. UCLA students at Monday’s rally spoke about a Youtube video posted by former UCLA student Alexandra Wallace called “Asians in the Library.” Email Liu at [email protected].
这些人恐怕才是真正的歧视吧？认为亚女崇拜白男，因此亚女自尊低，那不是在说白男高贵于亚女，亚女选白男是仰视和攀附吗？如果前提白男被认为是平等于亚女，那么亚女选白男，和她们选任何一个其他种族又有什么区别呢？
更何况，她们干涉亚女私生活，不算侵犯公民基本权利？
这个id是专门挖这种坑的，而且上面有人。。

不过lz也不必用＂抢＂这样的字眼了，不是所有的人在交友和择偶方面专攻白男的。
刚看到又是这个id，真是不想说话的。
但是看到这不要脸皮，自己作践的回帖，又忍不住了。
只有一句话合适这个ld，人至贱则无敌。
骂一个象你这样不要尊严，不要脸皮的中国人的确可以挽回一点被你丢掉的尊严！
就像抗日时期，痛打汉奸也是救国的道理一样。
如果不是挖坑s全家的, 你要好好想想为什么一个女性为主的论坛，你会象过街老鼠一样不被大家待见，甚至痛骂，辱骂！
如果你真心认为大家骂你是嫉妒你，你需要看心理医生。因为没有人的人生会完美到让这许多人嫉妒。
这个说的就是lz啊！我们也帮不了你，我们不崇拜白人男性。
MM小心，在这个ID的帖子里用这种字有生命危险啊。
我看得很清楚，你的回复还在！
除了无限贬低国人，特别是男性，把中国男性踩在白人男性脚下，你还有什么新玩意儿？你把自己洗得再白，再认同你白老公的一切，你还是中国人。
我告诉你，一个优秀，同样有尊严的男人是不会爱一个无限贬低自己国人的女人的。因为你们的尊严观，价值观不同。
http://forums.huaren.us/showtopic.aspx?topicid=1570779&page=11#61755705
鲜花不欢迎过街老鼠
所以那白女黑女骂你骂的对呀，你跟人家抢白老公了呀，还看不起自己的民族。你的题目跟你的论据是矛盾的。
怪不得你到处乱窜呢，原来就是到处收集材料来贬低国男，BS嫁给国男的女人们。
说你什么好呢。
要不你说说发一个这种帖子能拿多少工资吧？
对啊，华人给你多少红利啊？需要自尊的是你啊，都被识破了还这样子子不倦的来挖这种懒坑。换个头像就有用了么？好歹也换个id啊。呵呵
终于可以清净了
现在真的清静了，woooo
贱人终于能消停两天，oh yeah!

这些人说不崇拜白人，不想嫁白人，你信吗？别自欺欺人好吗？正视自己，找出差距，迎头赶上

那个~~我赞成大家的观点。但是p这句话里关于情人节的话题有些道理，我想说我们不应该一味追随其他国家的节日而淡忘了我们自己民族的节日。不用彻底排斥西方情人节，毕竟不现实，而且不同人爱好不同，但是我们一定以及肯定应该发扬我们的七夕情人节。不一定是玫瑰巧克力，结发，天灯啥的也很浪漫啊~~~
有理，应该不过几天又有一个冒出来。
没法子，人家这系工作
