957 Shirley NakaoSince Asian Week is a free weekly we couldn't say we would stop our subscriptions until the demands of this petition were met, but listen up advertisers, do you want your advertising dollars to support a newspaper that has so miserably failed to exercise journalistic responsibility? The editor and publisher thought articles by Eng were fit to print but I would wager that now many people think the paper may not be fit to line the kitty box litter. Advertisers, who will read your ads now?

962 Linh HuaI hold the editorial board of AsianWeek accountable and will no longer support them with my readership.
963 AnonymousMr. Eng's words are reflective of base ignorance, tremendously shallow emotional, intellectual and spiritual development, definitely not representative of all Asian Americans. Whoever or whatever his reference group, if any at all, is reflective of a destructive strike against all efforts toward peace on our planet.
964 Randee EddinsAs a proud African American woman, I found Kenneth Eng's article insulting and moronic. Further, I cannot fathom how his editorial comments could be printed within any legitimate, responsible media outlet. I believe that responsible Asians and others should boycott AsianWeek until this matter of broad negative generalizations and slurring of an entire ethnic group has been resolved satisfactorily.

966 Matthew ItamuraThank you for taking action against this type of racism!!

968 AnonymousNo comment. it's not worth my time, however an apology is in order.
969 Young ChiIsn't the purpose of opinion articles to improve communication and understanding of conflicting views? AsianWeek editor is the grown-up who should know better but instead chose to amplify the rants of a racist child. Does the editor have a moral compass?

971 Marian ThomIf it were not for the African Americans leading the charge for Equal Rights ,we of the Asian American community would still be out in the cold. Thank you , African American Community.Asian Week must do a better job of reviewing what they print.

975 B.K.I will not respond to the irresponsibleness or negative stereotyping of Mr. Eng's comments. I will address some present and historical issues. Maybe he, like most people believe the western lie that has been taught and shared for so long in the modern world today. As far as science is concerned man started in Africa, not white, Asian, the 1st man as we know him to be today was a black man, brown in hue negro as they say. From them all other civilization sprung. The oldest and most studied culture in the world is in Africa, Egypt...the artifacts are clearly black African as the Greeks, Romans, and pre- 1st century cultures have expressed. As for the religion of Christianity, that too is also comes out of Africa. Pick up a real history book and read you might learn something beyond the lie. Africans gave to western civilization that gift of religion, though they in turn tried to color it white, as they still do, do not be confused about the origins of Christian faith, as they too are African. If you do not know the history as it relates to a people you are ignorant to its truth (World history not just Biblical). As for Blacks hating Asians, that is absurd. Blacks do not hate Asians or whites, but rather the ignorance that breeds injustice in the fallacy of racism. The racism of those who Blacks have given so much to, in culture, art, science, philosophy and more etc.; yet the world thinks themselves superior to the origin of man. This is due to a perpetual lie birthed by slavery of Blacks. Furthermore it is the stigma of slavery that makes men of the world look upon Blacks as though they were weak...truth be told there is no other race which could have survived such a harsh indignity. It was more than cruel and malicious to body and spirit. The world today flourishes because of the free labor in America from Black slaves. The ancient world flourished because of the disciplines created and discovered by Black Africans. Though science knows this to be true they attempt to hide it, to maintain the lie the white western culture, one which has been embraced throughout Asian nations I might add; as believed to be superior. So Mr. Eng who is really the weak in will and easily coerced? You believe what you do about blacks because you were taught to...not because it is the truth. The Truth is NO NATION OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD HAS HELD A LONGER DYNASTY IN THE HISTORY OF MAN. Not 2000-5000 years but 12000-17000 years… they just teach that of the last 6000. Longer then the Romans, Greeks, Persians, Chinese, Japanese, Native Americans, Anglo Saxons, Korean…NONE among the WORLD….remember that when you think of the history of a people who stretches back before the known existence of any other man in the world. Egypt is but one example, like most African history which is being twisted and falsified to teach that whites where responsible for our culture. When the artifacts contradicted the lie it becomes defaced or lost or stolen and hidden away…think about why that is…if Blacks are erased from history as in having never mattered but were only slaves, who then will replace themselves in the Africans shoes of Greatness?

977 Shari MayoCondemn hate speech against ANYone. It's ugly, ignorant, and cowardly and I for one want to stand and be counted among those who say so!
978 simone fujitahow could a magazine touting "cross-cultural diversity" openly promote such hate?

981 Susan WooAsianweek should disassociate itself from Kennth Eng, and it has an obligation to all Asians to refrain from publishing similar works in the future. This reflects a lack of judgement as well as ignorance of history on the part of Asianweek's management team.
982 Irene HuI think he needs a psychiatrist.
983 Fumi L, SuzukiThis is not an expression of opinion; this is an expression of ignorance, and propagation of dangerous lies. It is hurtful not only to the African American community, but to the Asian American community, and the overall American society. It continues the racism that has so deeply divides humanity in the world. Let us comdemn these lies, and let us be a part of bringing people together and overcoming racism.
984 Katrelle Li-PingI understand the freedom of speech that everyone is entitled to but I am extremely happy that the Asian Community has rallied together to let people know that they do not support such negative thoughts.
985 AnonymousI am appalled and disgusted that SUCH ignorant comments could be published in this day and age. Especially as an Asian-American, I feel sickened by his comments and hope that the editorial staff sincerely reflects upon the incompassionate response they made regarding Kenneth's piece.

991 Mike LiCongratulations, AsianWeek. Your shameful decision to publish Kenneth Eng's egregious columns has just set our community back about 35 years. Nice work.

994 Anonymouswhat's the big deal? by petitioning, we don't eliminate those opinions of racism; instead, we are subliminally enhancing it. hey, last i checked, us constitution protects freedom of speech. he simply went off of his experience in high school, which seems to be miserable time as a big nerd. let him speak, and let some magazine i never subscribe view some minority view. community apology? oh, common, one man's opinion does not equate to the community! you guys are definitely over-reacting to this. u know, it's true blacks do make fun of asians all the time, in public and media. and so do we asians on blacks, whites, mexicans, etc. however, he went out of line a bit with the slavery comment. stupidity? yes, but intentional hatred? i doubt it. just remember that us is a melting pot, and for god's sake, everyone is entitled to different views. that's why america is great! let's not rush to become socialists who should be conformed to equality for all. u know that didn't work, thanks to the collapse of soviet union and china's open economic policy. cheers, and get a life!
