1: It takes a unique kind of nihilism to think that everything the U.S. has done internationally was a scam except to project military power. Keep our market open? Scam. Trade pacts? Scam. Write rules from which others benefit too? Scam. Foreign assistance? Scam. Alliances? Scam.

8/ Why does this matter? Trade debates are often framed around "what's best for America." But our findings suggest that different Americans hold different meanings of fairness shaped by racial inequality—and this matters for policy preferences.

At a time of challenges and great flux in the world, our purpose is to add rigor and reason, convening diverse perspectives with civility and creativity to help get China right.” - Jessica Chen Weiss ACF @ Johns Hopkins SAIS Launch MORE: acf.sais.jhu.edu

AASF leaders’ contributions to the report highlight the importance of experts answering complex questions with an intersectional approach across national security, law & international and domestic policies to ensure AANHPI scholars, scientists & researchers are not unduly harmed.

Gisela Perez Kusakawa: “Many Asian American scholars have faced undue scrutiny in the current climate...This report offers a nuanced discussion of how to balance security concerns w/our American principles of freedom & due process. AASF is honored to contribute to this important dialogue.”
