Vincent Chin ♂️
died at 27 y/o
Vincent Chin was a Chinese American draftsman who became a symbol of the Asian American civil rights movement after being brutally beaten to death in 1982 by two autoworkers in Detroit, who mistakenly blamed him for the economic downturn in the auto industry. His murder and the lenient sentences given to his attackers sparked widespread outrage and galvanized Asian American communities to demand justice and greater protection against racial violence.
