| Praises for S.B. Woo are nice. But it will go a long way if folks can help with the effort by joining 80/20 and or make a donation. Money talks and things get done with strong financial backing.

| AGREED! SB PS: Praises shouldn't come to me. Credit goes to the thousands of Asian Ams
who gave money, time and energy for the good of us all. On the other hand, we have a population of
15 million and less than 10,000 are helping.

| I appreacite you relentless effort to share these six part e-mails to publicize the true and dismiss any myths. It is through your effort and many other unselfish and enthusiastic volunteers to bear the burden of this critical mission that all Asian Americans desperately need. I applaude all of you and wish a productive and meaningful dialog with specific follow-up steps. You have my full support!

| Dr. Woo:
So glad to read your Ugly Truth, up to part 6
All of these 6 parts are resoundingly powerful evidence. None of any Asian American has ever done this as you do.
I would suggest that you print this as a booklet for broader distribution.
Happy New Year.

| To get Americans to appreciate the various Asian Am. cultures will be too big a project for 80-20.
We have address the cultural differences as a reason to stop us from rising to the limit of our ability factor via Myth 3. Please go back and review that. Thanks.

| Thanks for all your effort on working towards equal opportunity for Asian Pacific Americans.
I thought the one of the causes for the inequality, besides what you listed, is the culture difference and lack of appreciation of each others cultures. I hope that you can address and work on this in your strategy and roadmap.
Best,
William

The Ugly Truth about AsAm Inequality (Part 6)
Review of Parts 1 to 5 of "Ugly Truth" & CONCLUSION
Part I: 80-20 will meet with DOL's Director of Enforcement, Pat Shiu.
When & where? Jan. 11 (Monday); DOL, Washington, D.C.
Purpose? To show how we still face discrimination in workplaces and
urge DOL to implement what Pres. Obama has promised us: "to
focus on enforcing Exec. Order 11246 on behalf of AsAms."
Impact? 2 million AsAms directly; 4 million through family connections,
and 15 million directly and indirectly -- a rising tide raises all ships.
Who'll attend for 80-20? Prof. Chenming Hu & S. B. Woo, both flying
into D.C. at their own expenses.
Part II: Presented evidence that AsAms are discriminated in workplaces.
It'll take us 75 years or 3 more generations to reach EQUAL odds to
rise to the managerial level, if things are left at its current pace.
Part III: Presented irrefutable proofs that 80-20's evidence is VALID!.
The Chief Statistician of EEOC verified 80-20's data, methodology &
calculated numbers. After a year's study, EEOC on its own, reported
"discrimination against AAPI employees" in the federal government.
Part IV: Debunking 2 popular myths perhaps designed to confuse us
and keep us down.
Myth 1: AsAms don't have business degrees, only science &
engineering degrees. Therefore, not many managers!
Truth: We are our nation's number 1 in % of people with MBAs.
Myth 2: AsAms are already 2nd only to Caucasians in individual
income. What more do they want?
Truth: We want JUSTICE -- equal pay for equal work, & equal opportunity,
which are America's core values. The truth is that if AsAm are paid
the national average for our educational attainment, our individual
income would be 15% higher than Caucasians instead of lower. Does
America believe in its own core value any more?
Part V: Debunking 3 more popular myths against us.
Myth 3: AsAms simply don't have the "makeup" to make managers.
Truth: Identical charges were made against blacks, women & Hispanics
decades earlier. No one believes in such non-sense any more.
Myth 4: AsAms, with so many new immigrants, just don't have the
average seniority to have equal % of managers.
Truth: We have significantly more seniority than Hispanics. Yet Hispanics' %
of managers is at least 50% higher. Why? Hispanics have the political clout
with the federal government to get EO 11246 enforced for them.
Myth 5: AsAms certainly don't face as much "latent prejudice"
as blacks. How come blacks have a large % of managers?
Truth: Blacks may face more latent prejudice in many streets. However,
AsAms face more blatant dicrimination in private industries and universities.
It is because blacks have the political clout with the federal government to
get EO 11246 enforced for them.
CONCLUSION:
[A] AsAm's lack of GROUP political clout is the main reason for
the discrimination against us in getting the good jobs.
[B] We must Act to strengthen OUR OWN GROUP political clout!
