ICE Cancels Summer for L.A.’s Kids ~ L.A. TACO A new generation of children in the county are suffering what their immigrant parents feared most.

@lataco.bsky.social is featuring my newest on how la migra has ruined summer in LA. I spoke to an elected official, activists, and educators about how they are meeting the moment and protecting youth!

Legendary journalist K.W. Lee dead at the age of 96 – AsAmNews K.W. Lee's groundbreaking series led to the reversal of a conviction of Chol Soo Lee, a man wrongfully convicted of a Chinatown murder in San Francisco.

A legend has passed. K.W. Lee was a towering figure in journalism, Koreatown, Asian America and the pursuit of truth and justice. So gratified that Julie Ha and Eugene Yi centered K.W. in "Free Chol Soo Lee." Deepest sympathy to his family and loved ones.
