本集節目探討三藩市庇護城市政策。這個政策自1989年起對維持公平及包容等價值相當重要,以及防止移民和海關執法局 (ICE) 濫用權力,針對移民社區作出種族歧視的執法。近年,有聲音試圖藉著打擊毒品問題攻擊庇護城市政策,將毒品問題怪罪於移民身上。今集開首,Angela Chan - 現任三藩市公共辯護律師辦公室助理首席律師 - 會分享她於亞洲法律聯會(Asian Law Caucus)當律師的經歷,並在2008年親眼目睹過百名移民兒童被送到移民和海關執法局。這個經歷促使她成立三藩市自由聯盟 (Free SF Coalition),並成功推動通過三項加強庇護政策的法案。接著,我們邀請到華促會的外展員Anny講述削弱庇護政策如可引起華裔移民社區恐慌,以及她參與本地運動以捍衛庇護條例的經歷。 With a focus on San Francisco's Sanctuary Ordinance, this episode looks into its vital role in upholding the values of equality and inclusion and protecting our immigrant communities from Immigration & Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) racial profiling and abuse of power since 1989. In recent years, our City’s sanctuary policies have come under attack with an attempt to recycle the war on drugs and scapegoating immigrants for the drug crisis. In this episode, you will hear from Angela Chan, Chief of Policy at the SF Public Defender's Office, who shared her experience as a staff attorney at the Asian Law Caucus and witnessed hundreds of immigrant youth being handed over to ICE in 2008. This experience drove her to form the Free SF Coalition, which has successfully pushed for the passing of three local laws to strengthen sanctuary policies. We then speak with Anny, an outreach specialist at CAA, to learn about how the attack on Sanctuary Ordinance has instilled fear among Chinese immigrant communities and her participation in a grassroots movement to defend sanctuary.
