A WIN IN THE U.S.  SIXTH CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS. On August 18, 2014 in Nifadev v. Holder, (Case No. 13-3704/4222
6th Cir. 2014), the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit held that Mikheil B. Nifadev has proven his claim that he
had suffered persecution by reason of his Russian ethnicity at the hands of the security and regular police of Uzbekistan.   The
Court vacated the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) in Washington, D.C. which had denied Mr. Nifadev asylum,
and the Court remanded the case with additional instructions to the United States Attorney General, including that the BIA should
determine whether the BIA should also reconsider its denial of Nifadev’s application for withholding of removal and protection
under Convention Against Torture (abbreviated CAT for Convention Against Torture And Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading
Treatment or Punishment of the United Nations) in light of the opinion of the Court.  The Sixth Circuit opinion essentially and
explicitly held that "[b]ecause the IJ [Immigration Judge] appears to have erred in her determination that Nifadev did not suffer
past persecution and because the IJ clearly misinterpreted Nifadev’s credible testimony regarding the ethnic animus of the
Uzbekistan security officials, we find that Nifadev has made out a credible case of being a refugee under the definitions of
8 U.S.C. § 1158(b)(1)(A)."  [Emphasis added].   The United States Immigration Court in Cleveland, Ohio, had initially
found Mr.  Nifadev and his witnesses to be credible but declined to grant asylum because it erroneously determined that
Mr. Nifadev had NOT suffered persecution.   Shown in photograph on the right is Mr. Mikheil B. Nifadev with Charleston
C. K. Wang, Esq.  who represented Mr. Nifadev during trial and both appeals. To read complete opinion, please click here.
Pursuant to the Sixth Circuit opinion, the BIA on January 5, 2015, ordered the Immigration Court to grant asylum to Mr. Nifadev.

BLM

BLM = Black Lives Matter.  This is a true and valid statement which all people should  be
able to accept and support.   Some people may unconsciously read BLM as ONLY Black
Lives Matter.   BLM does not say that - it only says Black Lives Matter.  Of course, yellow
lives matter, and brown lives, and white lives .... in the final analysis .... all lives matter.  

BLM does NOT say these other lives do not matter - the best of us may read more than
what BLM says because of our own subconscious biases, or some other unfounded
insecurity.   Of course, Black Lives Matter.  Until we can grow beyond seeing the color on
the surface of people’s skin, and behaving differently just because of a person’s "color,"
Black Lives Matter.

An Opinion by Charleston C. K. Wang,  February 20, 2021.

Reader's Feedback

You didn’t state why BLM movement was started. Black people have been killed by police
for trifle offenses or for no offense at all. If the offense was so trifle that, if it were
committed by a White person, it would have been overlooked or punished very lightly. But
some cops were conditioned and ready to use deadly force against Black people
regardless. This culture must change.  It is very tricky and delicate to discuss but in
general, Asian Americans (the Yellow people) are less likely to confront or resist cops if
we encounter them. Most of Asian Americans are obedient to the authority, while African
Americans tend to run away from or resist against cops.  Is it based on the culture of
Black people or their social conditioning due to the history of oppression? Have you seen
any scholarly analysis on this point? When we discuss this, we have to be careful not
looking like we are blaming the victim, however.

Shiro Tanaka, M.D., M.P.H. March 3, 2021.
                                      WE MUST RESTORE RESPECT FOR AND CONFIDENCE IN OUR COURTS

At this juncture of our Nation’s history, perhaps the most urgent and largely overlooked need is the need to restore respect for
and confidence in our judiciary.   Our courts, that third branch of our government, are vital to the proper functioning of a
checked and balanced democracy. During the last four years, respect for the courts have been eroded from many sides.

The most blatant and latest example is the recent refusal to accept the findings of many courts at all levels of a fair presidential
election, one that is free of major voting irregularity.  By a recent count 62 lawsuits had been filed in various state and federal
courts alleging a “rigged” or “stolen” election, but  the judges in 61 of the cases have found the voting to be fair and reliable.  
Only one court in Pennsylvania ordered the recheck of voter IDs to cure any alleged defects.  Yet the messaging of a rigged and
stolen election continued after the courts have upheld the integrity of the election process based on the evidence presented.  
This deliberate refusal to respect the impartial and apolitical judgment of the courts directly led to the attack on the United States
Congress, our first branch of government, resulting in destruction of property and loss of life.

Since the days of partisan driven dispute between William Marbury and James Madison, the courts have labored to protect our
democracy and enhance our liberties by resolving disputes at all levels using the rule of law and application of reason.  The
fundamental benefit is that major arguments and dangerous disagreements are settled without final recourse to armed force.  

Our system of constitutional government entrusts the judiciary to stay above the political pushing and shoving to render
judgments that transcend the political divide.  Indeed, the judiciary is the last recourse for persons without political power.  While
judgments sometimes are imperfect, and inevitably not all parties can be satisfied, our social contract advises us to accept a
judge’s decision and we must remind ourselves that this the why we went to the court in the first place.  

In a nation that is founded on rugged individualism and reasoned revolution, there will be occasions when we are bedeviled by
thoughts of taking the law from the courts and into our own hands.  The consequences are always dire, tragic and regrettable.   
In the final analysis, it falls upon each and everyone of us to maintain confidence in and respect for our judges and Justices of
the third branch of our constitutional government.

Respectfully submitted.

Charleston C. K. Wang,   Updated January 25, 2021.

In 1982, hate against Asian Americans was motivated by economic stress caused by cars imported
from Japan.  In 2021, the hatred is traced to distress from COVID-19 which
some politicians have viciously labelled the "kungfu virus,"  or worse. The op-ed
"Stop Violence against Asians" was published by the CINCINNATI ENQUIRER on 5/12/1987.

Message to Sycamore High School Seniors of 2021:

In  1967, a lifetime ago for some of you, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said:  "We can no longer afford to worship
the god of hate  …… or bow before the altar of retaliation."

Dr. King understood that "returning hate for hate multiplies hate.”  Dr. King gave us his answer: “Hate cannot
drive out hate; only love can do that.”

Therefore - Violence will be resisted, but only with non-violence, poverty with opportunity, illness with healing,
injustice with justice, alienation with community, ignorance with wisdom, and hate with love.

You have done well, but go do better!  Charleston C. K. Wang 5/27/2021.
