强烈谴责金辛基针对在美华裔的歧视性言论
2021年4月9日

2021年4月2日,美国德州共和党籍的韩裔金辛基Sery Kim在竞选国会议员的候选人论坛中发表针对华人移民社区的言论:“我根本不希望他们在这里。他们窃取了我们的知识产权,给了我们冠状病毒,他们不追究自己的责任,坦率地说,我可以这么说是因为我是韩国人。”

她参加今年5月1日举行的德州第六选区众议员特别选举。

美国华裔民权联盟强烈谴责金辛基针对华裔移民的诽谤污蔑,煽动歧视言论。如此言论暴露了她的无知及其丑恶面目,我们号召所有选民在5月1日的特别选举中不要投票给她!

首先,金辛基根本没有资格说不想华人移民美国,因为美国从来就是一个移民国家。中国移民美国历史悠久,从修建铁路到参与世界大战保家卫国,美国华人都是贡献良多,也巳存入国会档案,成为美国历史的一部份。

其次,众所周知,韩国吸取了许许多多的中华文化传统风俗,例如同样庆祝农历新年。其他族裔在日常生活中经常分不清来自东亚的华裔韩裔和日裔,因此生活在美国中韩移民,经常面临同样的仇视和歧视,因此金辛基的言论非常愚蠢。

第三,金辛基污蔑华人移民将新冠病毒带入美国,这是没有事实根据的诽谤,也与1882排华法案如出一辙。WHO和CDC都一再指出,新冠病毒是野生动物传染到人体,然后在人群中传播,与族裔无关。

最后,如此族裔歧视言论,无论其族裔背景,都是绝对错误的,特别在目前亚裔遭受日益严重的歧视及仇恨犯罪期间,我们表示坚决反对她煽风点火的言论。

鉴于以上原因,美国华裔民权联盟向德州共和党众议员候选人金辛基提出强烈抗议,要求她向在美华人社区作出道歉,退出今年的国会众议员特别选举,因为国会不应该有反移民的众议员!

我们号召德州的选民,拒绝这样一个煽动仇恨与分裂的候选人!

Chinese Americans Civil Rights Coalition’s Statement
Condemning Sery Kim's Racist Rhetoric Against Chinese Americans
April 9, 2021
 
Ms. Sery Kim, a Texas Republican of Korean descent, made remarks on April 2 against the Chinese Americans community at a candidate forum: "I don't want them here at all. They stole our intellectual property, they gave us the coronavirus, they don't hold themselves accountable, and frankly, I can say that because I'm Korean." She is running in the special election for the Texas 6th Congressional District on May 1 of this year.

The Chinese American Civil Rights Coalition strongly condemns such slanderous slurs and discriminatory remarks against Chinese Americans. We call on all voters reject her candidacy in the upcoming May 1 special election!

First, Kim has no place to say that she does not want Chinese immigrants in the United States because the United States has always been a country of immigrants. Chinese immigrants in America have a long history. From building railroads to defending America in the two world wars, Chinese Americans have made many outstanding contributions to America, all of which have been well-documented in the Library of Congress as part of American history.

Secondly, as we all know, Korea has absorbed many Chinese culture, traditions and customs, such as celebration of the Lunar/Chinese New Year.  Other ethnic groups often cannot distinguish between Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese in the public, so these three groups of immigrants from East Asia often face the same hatred and discrimination.

Third, Kim's slander that Chinese immigrants brought the new coronavirus into the U.S. is unsubstantiated. Both the WHO and the CDC have repeatedly stated that the Covid-19 virus is most likely transmitted from wild animals to humans and then spread among the population regardless of race and ethnicity.

Finally, Ms. Kim’s racially charged statements are simply wrong, no matter who says them, especially in these days of increasing discrimination and hate crimes against Asian-Americans.

The Chinese American Civil Rights Coalition strongly condemns Kim’s racial rhetoric, demands her apology to the Chinese American community. Kim should withdraw from the special congressional election because her racist rhetoric has no place in Congress! We call on the voters to reject a candidate who incites racial division and hatred.
