This table read of Johnny Ngo’s feature film script of the same name documents the true story of Vincent Chin, who was killed by two disgruntled autoworkers in the Detroit area in 1982. His murderers, who apparently had mistaken him for a Japanese, were given lenient sentences fines and probation which sparked a civil rights movement within the Asian American community.
“Hold Still, Vincent” is an unflinching and visceral examination of one family’s fight for justice that is conducive to the current racial zeitgeist in America today.

In response to the alarming surge in hate incidents targeting the Asian American community, Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Los Angeles, a leading legal and civil rights organization, is launching its first-ever bystander intervention initiative.
The effort includes the debut of a public service announcement narrated by actor Ken Jeong and an ongoing series of free training workshops, both designed to promote awareness and usage of bystander intervention methods. Intended to prevent verbal harassment from escalating into physical violence, these techniques offer everyday people the chance to assist victims and play a role in keeping their communities safe.
Delegate: Find someone in a position of authority and ask them for help in intervening in the situation.
Delay: Even if you cannot act in the moment, check with the victim after the incident is over, and show support.
Direct intervention: It can be risky, but if you feel safe, speak up and tell the harasser what is being done or said is not okay.
Document: Record a video of the incident with time and date.
“I think there are many ways in which people can respond, find a safe way to do so, but make sure to recognize (the situation), and do something,” said co-chair of the San Diego Asian Pacific Islander Coalition, Kent Lee.
