Speak up, AsAm Scientists

Emails poured in urging 80-20 to help publicize the article that is in the current issue of the Science Magazine.

Topic? The very low glass ceiling against Asian American scientists!

The above is course NOT news to 80-20. 80-20 started it all in showingthe very low glass ceilings against Asian Americans EVERYWHERE -- private industries, universities, the federal government, and the state and local governments.

We are just delighted that prestigious organizations have checked ourdata & statements and are joining our ranks! Science Magazine, EEOC, and The Chronicle of High Education are with 80-20 in asking for change.

80-20 is proud to point out the two of the prominent persons speaking out in this article are key players of 80-20. Dr. Alice Huang, the President-elect of AAAS, is on 80-20's Board, and Dr. Kuan-Teh Jeang is an 80-20 Honorary Life Member.

Please read about it and then speak up against the discrimination. Or join 80-20 to support its voice, go http://www.80-20initiative.net and click on the red button "JOIN 80-20." Or, send a check to 80-20 PAC, PO Box 22509, Philadelphia, PA 19110.

Speak up against the glass ceiling above you. It's good for you, us and the United States of America.
