Kathleen Yang-Clayton, UIC clinical associate professor of public administration and research associate with UIC’s Great Cities Institute, joined WTTW-TV’s “Chicago Tonight” for a segment on the Chicago City Council’s remap process and Asian American political representation in the city.
Kathleen Yang-Clayton, UIC clinical associate professor and research associate with UIC’s Great Cities Institute, says greater political representation is also important at a time when Asian Americans are facing a spike in racism and violence.
“We should think more broadly (about) how everyone is impacted by the lack of transparency, the gaming of these ward boundaries. There are solutions that would benefit the Asian American community as well as other communities,” Yang-Clayton.
