A Virtual Trial Reenactment:  Remembering the Murder of  Vincent Chin

Please join us for a virtual trial reenactment and discussion cosponsored by the Asian Affinity Network at Allen & Overy  LLP and the Asian American Bar Association of New York, in  commemoration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month.

In furtherance of our commitment to civic education and community engagement, we will be  hosting a live virtual trial reenactment of the Murder of Vincent Chin and panel discussion on the  political implications of the outcome of the case and the history of Asian immigration in the US,  anti­Asian violence and hate crimes. This event will be eligible for CLE credit (as further  described below). A virtual networking reception (via Remo) for attendees to meet informally will  follow.
