So, months after the dust from the AsianWeek “Why I Hate Blacks” debacle has settled, the organization seems to be trying to make amends in the community. Along with a newly designed website, they are holding focus groups to find out what the community wants in an Asian American newspaper.
As it says in the flyer, they are doing this to “help make AsianWeek the voice of Asian America.” All I can say is: FINALLY. As maligned and irritated as I have been with AsianWeek over the years – including my three years working there – I still agree that as a weekly Asian American newspaper they are a huge resource. So, let’s all go to these focus groups and give them a piece of our minds -- hey, if anything, it's a free meal.
