We had a great meeting with Senator Marty Block at the OceanAir Town Hall
meeting on Oct 2nd. SDAAFE mobilized ~30 Asian American parents to show up
in the meeting, which is more than 2/3rd of the total who attended. Even
though SCA5 was not on his topic list, and the senator got an earful of SCA5

10 Asian American parents voiced our uniform opposition as well as our

ORLANDO, Fla. — The most captivating strand of the Jeremy Lin mystique is
that he came from nowhere, emerging overnight to become a star, after being
underestimated and overlooked, disregarded by college coaches, ignored in
the N.B.A. draft and waived twice in two weeks.
The narrative is well-established, factual in its broadest strokes and
altogether flawed, or at least woefully incomplete.
