Found this gem last Friday while closing down the office and the George Kagiwada Library for the weekend. I found a DVD of pictures from "Pilipino Day 1973" courtesy of Mr. Carl Hsu. That's 44 years ago!! The DVD itself was mailed 10 years ago! Check out the rest of the pictures on our fb page! 😁 #KnowHistoryKnowSelf #AsianAmerican #AsianAmericanStudies #asaucd #ProjectBulosan (at UC Davis Asian American Studies)

Yellow Pearl, the first Asian American band. L-R: Charlie Chin, Nobuko Miyamoto, and Chris Iijima. They released A Grain of Sand: Music for the Struggle of Asians in America in 1973. The songs they wrote made a political statement for the AAPIA community. "Sing a song for ourselves. What have we got to lose? Sing a song for ourselves. We got the right to choose. We got the right to choose. We got the right to choose." Photo taken by Bob Hsiang. #tbt #throwbackthursday #asaucd #ethnicstudies #yellowpearl #asianamerican

May 10, 1866: Yick Wo v. Hopkins. Yick Wo owned a laundromat in San Francisco. During this time there was a city ordinance to have a permit for businesses operating in wooden buildings. Wo was then imprisoned by the city's sheriff, Peter Hopkins, for breaking the law. This case was the first in which the U.S. Supreme Court rules discrimination and violates the Equal Protection Clause in the 14th amendment.
