Interview: Helen Papanikolas Helen Papanikolas has spent years researching the experiences of immigrants in the western United States. The author of several books based on hundreds of interviews with immigrants, she contibuted her knowledge of the immigration experience to the production of Joe Hill. Following is a full transcript of producer Ken Verdoia's interview with Papanikolas: Q:: The turn of the new century brings the peak of European immigration to the United States. What were they seeking? Is there a commonality to be found there? A: Opportunity was the main reason. And Americans just don't realize the kind of poverty that the Europeans, particularly the southern Europeans, had to endure. I have talked with immigrant men, long since dead, who didn't have a pair of shoes until they went to the Army for the compulsory training that every country expected of, usually, 19-year-olds. That's why many young men came here before they were 19. But their countries were ravaged over the centuries with invasions. America has never been invaded. America had these vast lands of alluvial soil, homestead laws, they had so many ways that immigrants could be helped and help themselves. But when this deluge of southern European immigrants came, it was entirely different.

Unlike Generation X, these twentysomething Asian-American student leaders say they have direction, ambition and purpose. Members of the Atlantic Coast Asian American Student Union gathered at UF this weekend for its ninth annual conference, in what they say is the region most often overlooked in its number of Asian residents. From throughout the southeastern United States, these students hope to bring recognition and respect to the growing population of Asians and Asian Americans in this part of the country. Conference director Lisa Gong, a UF decision and information sciences junior, said the ACAASU conference helps strengthen the organization through education. One of the attendees attested to Gong's words. "It seems like a lot of people that we bring to the workshops go back to school with something to share," said Ron Nakamoto, a business junior at the University of North Carolina - Wilmington.

HEALING Overview of the Asian American Experience Major Sections Name of Author Participants Goal Objectives ... References Name of Author Dave Nakashima Participants All Participants 15-75 People Goal Gain knowledge of historical events that have affected Asian and Pacific Islander communities in the United States today. Objectives By the end of this activity, participants will be able to: Identify 5 Asian American ethnic groups. List 5 characteristics of specific Asian American populations. List 3 experiences of inequality or injustice experienced by Asians in the United States. Facilitator Notes This activity is intended to serve specifically as an overview for Asians and does not address Pacific Islanders. This "overview" includes three activities, the first is the "Profile of the Asian American Community" which is a demographic overview of Asian Americans. The second is the "Overview of the Asian American Experience" which focuses on the history of discrimination and experiences of oppression. The third is a small group discussion activity leading to ATOD prevention implications for Asian American communities. The overview is designed to be used in its entirety or one of the three parts depending on time constraints or needs of the participants. The activity can be used to set the stage for many activities in the curriculum. The total running time for all three activities is 2 hours 30 minutes.

Asian and Pacific Islander Institute Participant Materials Major Sections Acknowledgements Philosophy and Rationale of the Institute Institute Goals, Themes and Audience Guidelines for Observers ... Overview of the Asian and Pacific Islander Institute ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) is a prevention agency administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), a health services agency within the Public Health Service of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). CSAP's mission is to support, promote and advocate for the continuing development of comprehensive community, State, national and international prevention systems. CSAP has initiated a Community Partnership Training Project (CCPT) to assist Community Partnership grantees to support their efforts to reduce and prevent alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse in communities. PHILOSOPHY AND RATIONALE OF THE INSTITUTE Overview of the Institute Philosophy At their meeting in October 1993, the Curriculum Design Team for the Asian and Pacific Islander Institute adopted as its guiding principal the premise that Asian and Pacific Islander communities should have political, economic and social equity. To begin to address the concerns and issues of Asians and Pacific Islanders related to alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse, the Institute was designed to move participants through a cycle of recognition of their individual and collective experiences and their role in U.S. history. The design of the training is made up of four stages: Healing, Cultural Pride, Capacity Building and Celebration. The concept behind this design is that in order for people who share a common ethnic, cultural and historical background to mobilize and empower themselves, they need to acknowledge the difficulty, suffering and injustice that is part of their experience to heal their wounds.

Each issue carries an imprimatur from the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. Reprinting prohibited Many Faces in God's House by Virgilio P. Elizondo, Jamie T. Phelps, Ph.D., and Peter C. Phan The Church in America is one of many races and ethnic groups. Each of these traditions brings gifts to Catholic life and worship. Each brings the experiences of a people which, shared around the Lord's table, is the Body of Christ in America. How can our Church find new ways to share these gifts? How can our diverse people work together to promote the common good? Perhaps the first step is to learn more about each other. In this Update Of course, a short article like this can't spotlight everyone, but, in a spirit of Christlike understanding and goodwill, everyone can learn from the experiences of these groups. The more we can respect each other's differences as gifts to the Church, and become more welcoming parishes, the more fully we will be truly catholic, universal people. HISPANIC GIFTS by Virgilio Elizondo Several years ago, I remember Archbishop Edward McCarthy of Miami saying, "Hispanics are not a problem to be dealt with, but a gift to be appreciated." I agree with the archbishop. We have a lot to receive from the Catholicism of this country, but we equally have a lot to contribute. Like every other ethnic group in U.S. Catholicism, the Hispanic religious heritage of our ancestors is a great fountain of religious wisdom, beauty, devotion and inspiration.

HISPANICS The number of Hispanics in the United States is increasing rapidly. The U.S. Census Bureau (Current Population Reports - The Hispanic Population in the United States: March, 1997) reports an Hispanic population of 29.7 million people (11.1% of the total population). The Bureau projects that 1 in every 4 Americans will be Hispanic by the year 2050. (U.S. Census Bureau: Statistical Brief, 1994.) Photo courtesy of "Sounds of Philadelphia," Glenn Holsten, Producer and Darian Bagley, Assistant Producer. Hispanics are enormously diverse people. The term "Hispanic" refers to many different ethnic groups, coming (or whose ancestors came) from several dozen countries. The ancestry of Hispanic people ranges "from pure Spanish to mixtures of Spanish blood with Native American, African, German, Italian" and other nationalities. (U.S. News Special Report, 5/11/98.) Photo courtesy of "Sounds of Philadelphia," Glenn Holsten, Producer and Darian Bagley, Assistant Producer. People of Hispanic origin may be of any race. In addition to actual Spaniards, people of Hispanic origin include Mexican Americans, Central and South Americans (Salvadorans, Guatemalans, Nicaraguans, Hondurans, Panamanians, Costa Ricans, Colombians, Ecuadorians, Peruvians, Argentineans, Chileans, Others), and Caribbean peoples including Puerto Ricans, Cubans, and Dominicans. Many of them prefer to be called Latinos rather than Hispanics. Photo courtesy of "Sounds of Philadelphia," Glenn Holsten, Producer and Darian Bagley, Assistant Producer.

Asian Lunar New Year beginning January 24th, 2001 ushers in Year of the Snake The Year of the Snake will begin on January 24, the Asian Lunar New Year 4699, and is celebrated by many Asian American groups including Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean Americans. "The Asian Lunar New Year is one of the most important holidays for these communities," said Saul Gitlin, VP of Strategic Marketing Services and New Business Development, Kang & Lee Advertising, a leading authority on Asian culture in the U.S. Kang & Lee Advertising, a division of Young & Rubicam, is the nation's leading advertising agency specializing in linking corporate America to the Asian American marketplace. Known as "Chuen Jie" (Spring Festival) in Chinese, "Tet Nguyen Dan" in Vietnamese and "Sol" in Korean, the Lunar New Year is a holiday associated with important and elaborate traditional family celebrations. The Lunar New Year is represented by a cycle of 12 years, each year denoted by a different animal zodiac. "This year is the Year of the Snake, a symbol of wisdom, elegance, and intrigue," says Gitlin. "Snake years are pensive, full of thought and wisdom. It will be a year full of entertainment and cultural exploration. Those born into this year are spiritual advisors and deep-thinkers," he said. In addition to enjoying lavish holiday meals at home or at restaurants with special new year dishes, families and friends pay visits to each other, exchanging greetings and gifts which signify fortune. For example, Chinese and Vietnamese give children "red-envelopes" with good luck money for the new year and Koreans offer newly minted money as a symbol of auspicious and fortuitous beginnings. Business people in the Asian communities also celebrate the holiday with colleagues and employees.

Disinheriting Our Children, or Maybe Vice Versa by Gary North Most American parents think of their task as providing more opportunities for their children than they enjoyed. At least, this was the stated goal of American parents for many generations. I think it still is. To imagine that this is possible requires a vision of the future this is optimistic. If the vast majority of parents really think that they can do this for their children, then they have to believe in economic growth. Our children, unlike those of Lake Wobegon, are not all above average. For most of them to live lives better than ours, there has to be a better world in general. But if there has to be a better world in general in order for us, as parents, to make our children’s lives better, then our ability to achieve this goal is dependent on the economic environment around us. It is not what we do as individuals that will make "a world of difference" for our children. It is what we do as a people. A growing economy is what enables us to offer more opportunities to our children. We implicitly accept this fact of life. When each generation of American parents has said, "I hope my kids don’t have to go through what I went through," the parents were not blaming their own parents. They were not saying, "My parents failed to give me what I needed, but I’m going to do a better job." They were saying, "My parents faced hard times, so I faced hard times growing up. I want to live in better times than my parents did, so that my kids will have more opportunities than I did." That’s the best definition of economic growth: more opportunities for more people. Each generation has hoped that the economy would enable them to make available more opportunities for their children.

Surveys and Race/Ethnicity Groups Meeting Standards for Precision 3.1 Standards for Precision Sections and discussed ways of focusing on the precision levels required for various analytic uses. Since most U.S. Government surveys cover a broad array of data items, it is clear that no single standard of precision is likely to satisfy all potential uses of the data and that some compromises are necessary. It is particularly difficult to create standards of precision for a group of unrelated surveys whose specific analyses are yet to be developed at some future time. Under these circumstances, it seems sensible to use the standards for "generic" prevalence rates that were established for the study of the feasibility of producing state data from the NHIS. However, we reiterate our caveat that the standards may not satisfy all requirements, and if some new and critically important needs for statistical information on the subpopulations arise, the standards should be reviewed. The precision levels that were examined for NHIS state level generic estimates were described in Section 2.2. We repeat them below:

Asian Pacific American Heritage Month May 22, 1998 Mr. President, before we break for the Memorial Day recess, I would like to remark on the celebration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month and to honor the contributions Asian Pacific Americans have made to our country. Mr. President, the scope of the celebration has expanded every year since 1992, when President Bush signed Public Law 102-450 designating May of every year as “Asian Pacific American Heritage Month.” In Washington, D.C., and in cities all around the nation, schools, community organizations, cultural groups, and government agencies are commemorating the occasion with film festivals, conferences, cultural shows, museum exhibits, political forums, and a multitude of other activities. Today, even more so than in the past, Asian Pacific Americans contribute to every sector of our society. They are in corporate board rooms, scientific laboratories, universities, Congress, statehouses, the judiciary, government agencies, the performing arts, and sports. They are architects like I.M. Pei, scientists like AIDS researcher David Ho, statesmen like Senator Dan Inouye, writers like journalist Iris Chang, musicians like conductor Zubin Mehta, filmmakers like Chris Tashima, sports heroes like Tiger Woods, and warriors like General Eric Shinseki. Unfortunately, the scope and ubiquity of Asian Pacific accomplishments are often overshadowed by insensitive acts directed against members of the community. For example, during last year's investigation of campaign finance abuses, the distinction between foreign donors and Asian American donors was frequently blurred by members of both political parties and the media. While investigations focused on contributions made to the Democratic National Committee by foreign donors, legitimate American donors were unduly interrogated and harassed simply because their surnames happened to sound "foreign."
