	4	+====My interpretation is that the resolution should serve as a topic area which we as debaters should have a discussion in relating to it and the debate is about competing methodologies or approaches to our respective areas. This isn't a topicality bad argument, but rather an argument that we shouldn't be locked to generic QI good or bad debates, but rather the way in which it relates to larger structural and power forces that shape our lives as actual people. This legal topic is unique in that it has allowed me to recognize the unique place that I fit into and interact with all aspects of society. ====

	24	+The untold story is that Asian America is what it is today because of the African American-led civil rights movement. The first step that we can do to bridge the distance among communities of color is understand our interconnected roots. The 1960s is perhaps best known for laws like the Civil Rights Act. But 50 years ago today, on October 3, 1965, the Immigration and Nationality Act was also passed in the midst of the social upheaval of that period. This immigration law has been absolutely transformational for American society because of the drastic demographic shifts that were brought about in its wake. From 1820 to 1965, only 1.5 million Asians immigrated to the US. After 1965's immigration act, more than 10 million Asians have immigrated to our shores. Were it not for the centuries-long struggle led by African Americans on behalf of all excluded communities, we as a nation would not only have a lot fewer civil rights, we would not have nearly the racial diversity we do today. The Asian American community, nineteen million of us strong, could be the tipping point that shifts the balance of power against white supremacy. But what's more, we Asian Americans must challenge the anti-black racism that exists in our own community. In 2015, when police brutality is a daily news headline and African Americans are senselessly murdered by law enforcement, Asian Americans must stand as allies to the Black Lives Matter movement. Black lives matter unconditionally. We Asian Americans owe it to African Americans to hold ourselves accountable to this undeniable truth.
	25	+
	26	+
	27	+====My argument isn't that you should prioritize Asian suffering on the flow, but rather to endorse the best method that reveals the role of Asian American life in a society framed by white supremacy but I'll get to that later…====

	36	+Recently, police have been killing and otherwise abusing people of color with what seems
	37	+AND
	38	+want to see justice done, we should push to make it happen.
	39	+
	40	+
	41	+====First the notion of qualified immunity begs the question of why we even need to limit it for police officers. My arguments is that the question of limiting demands a question of our understanding of the way the police work. You've surely heard of the Black Lives Matter movement and its protests against police brutality against African Americans, but another minority is also subject to these unique structural harms—The Model Minority, The Asian American. We need a total re-understanding of the way policing works and the laws that allow it to do so to create any change====

	65	+====This means that the debate space is uniquely key to getting my voice heard, as squo options and traditional social movements fail due to ther focus on police brutality as a black and white issue—this is why we need a focus on the Model Minority and the avenues it can open for and intersectional approach====

	74	+====We often competitively participate in debate without ever considering the possibility for how debate can CHANGE the world – how the critical thinking and research skills we develop can provide MEANING and advance methodologies to liberate oppressed people often within our social location. – Our speech act focuses on the EPISTEMOLOGICAL GROWTH occurring from the activity and the development of critical consciousness –Debate becomes more than a game but a process of life leading to CONSCIENTIZATION====

	82	+
	83	+
	84	+====My method is conscientization – a process of constant clarification that allows us to name the world and perceive how we exist in it – through this dynamic process we have come to realizations – like the fact that there could be derogatory language within the discourse of our 1AC authors which we have made a conscious attempt to remove – we have already begun and will continue to create real change====

	93	+Given the profound change that conscientization had effected in the lives of respondents, it
	94	+AND
	95	+along with greater coordination of influences, is an important dimension of conscientization.
