美国华人终身成就奖：

叶梅（Mae Yih）

作为一名保守的民主党人，叶梅取得了许多成就，包括通过法律建立企业区以促进创造就业机会；设立俄勒冈州驻上海贸易代表办公室，以加强俄勒冈州与中国之间的贸易；推进儿童抚养立法以加快儿童抚养并减少公共援助；通过永久纠正立法起草错误，为林县（Linn County）居民提供平等的房产税减免；为地区青少年毒品和酒精治疗中心拨款；鼓励性禁欲以减少青少年怀孕的学校课程；为廊桥的修复和预防性维护提供彩票基金，以及一项评估威拉米特河（Willamette River）健康状况的研究。

叶梅还是农田燃烧的支持者，因为这比使用化学物质更有效地控制疾病和昆虫。伊于1983年提出并通过立法与中国福建省建立姐妹国家关系。1984年，她陪同俄勒冈州州长Atiyeh与福建省省长签署协议。1992年、1997年、2000年、2002年，叶梅先后组织立法院领导贸易代表团访问福建省及中国其他城市。1994年，叶梅被授予福建省荣誉市民称号。

2003年退休后，她获得了奥尔巴尼商会颁发的杰出服务奖。这也是她的丈夫在1968年获得的奖项。她的地区办公室所在的奥尔巴尼街叶巷（Yih Lane），就是以她的家族命名的。

Yih was born Chih Feng Dunn on May 24, 1928 in Shanghai, China. She went to St. John’s University in Shanghai. In September 1948, she transferred to Barnard College in New York City, graduating in 1951 with a bachelor's degree in economics. She went to Columbia University for a master's degree in accounting but did not complete. In 1953 she married Stephen Yih and later moved to Albany, Oregon with Stephen. 

In Albany, Yih volunteered at her children's school, eventually running for the local school board. She started service on the Clover Ridge Elementary School board in 1969, moving to the Albany Union High School board in 1975. In 1976, the local Democratic Party chairperson asked Yih to run for the Oregon State House. Yih won the election, defeating a Republican opponent who had 14 years of incumbency. Yih took office in 1977. She went on to serve three two-year terms in the House. In 1982, Yih decided to run for a seat in the Oregon State Senate. She won this election, and was re-elected in 1986, 1990, 1994, and 1998. Yih was elected Senate President Pro Tempore for the 1993–1995 session. Yih decided not to seek re-election in 2002 and retired at the end of her term in January 2003.

Known as a conservative Democrat, Yih's many accomplishments included passage of laws establishing Enterprise Zones to promote job creations; Office of Oregon Trade Representative in Shanghai to enhance trade between Oregon and China; child support legislation to expedite child support and reduce public assistance; equal property tax relief for Linn County residents by correcting a legislative drafting error permanently; appropriation for regional Adolescent Drug & Alcohol Treatment Center; school curriculum to encourage sexual abstinence to reduce teen pregnancy; lottery funds for the rehabilitation and preventive maintenance of covered bridges and a study for assessing the health of the Willamette River. Yih was also known as a strong supporter of field burning because it is a more effective control of disease and insects than the use of chemicals. Yih introduced and passed legislation to establish sister state relationship with Fujian province, China in 1983. She accompanied Oregon governor Atiyeh to sign the agreement with Governor of Fujian province in 1984. Yih organized legislative leadership trade delegation to visit Fujian province and other cities in China in 1992, 1997, 2000, and 2002. Yih was awarded Honorary Citizen of Fujian Province in 1994.

Following her retirement in 2003, Yih received the Distinguished Service Award from the Albany Chamber of Commerce. This is the same award that her husband received in 1968. The Albany street Yih Lane, where her district office was, is named for her family.

社会正义贡献奖：

胡安明（Anming Hu）

胡安明是加拿大华裔，2013年起担任田纳西大学诺克斯维尔分校机械、航空和生物医学工程系助理教授，2019年7月被任命为终身副教授。当局对胡教授进行了18个月的监视后，于2020年2月27日将他逮捕，理由是他未披露与一所中国大学的联系。田纳西大学也将其开除。然而，胡教授拒绝认罪，并决定在法庭上抗辩。他的案件是美国司法部开展“中国行动”计划以来受审的第一个学术案件。在他的决心、勇气和家人朋友的支持下，一年半后的2021年9月9日，胡教授被法庭宣判无罪释放。到目前为止，这是唯一一起法院驳回所有指控的学术案件。然而，如果没有他的辩护律师菲尔·洛莫纳科（Phil Lomonaco）和前诺克斯新闻记者杰米·赛特菲尔德（Jamie Satterfield）的大力支持，他不可能打赢这场官司。

Dr. Anming Hu is a Chinese-Canadian who had worked as an assistant  professor in the Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville since 2013 and was protomtoed to tenured associate professor at July, 2019. On February 27, 2020, after 18 months of surveillance, he was arrested for not disclosing his association with a Chinese university and was terminated by the University of Tennessee. However, Professor Hu refused to plead guilty and decided to fight his case at the court. His case was the first academic tried under the “China Initiative.” With his determination and courage and support of his family and friends, one and half years later, on September 9, 2021, the trial resulted in acquittal and Hu was cleared of all charges. So far this is the only academic case that the court dismissed all charges. However, he could not win the case without the strong support of his defense attorney A Philip Lomonaco and former Knox News reporter Jamie Satterfield.

社会正义贡献奖：

菲尔·洛莫纳科（Phil Lomonaco）

洛莫纳科就读于田纳西大学法学院，1985年进入美国东区地方法院，1986年进入田纳西州最高法院。他是A. Philip Lomonaco律师事务所的创始和管理合伙人，该公司于1987年在田纳西州诺克斯维尔创立。他连续多年被选为诺克斯维尔最佳律师之一，并于2009 - 2010年、2013 - 2015年、2017 - 2020年被选为美国最佳律师之一。洛莫纳科不仅仅是胡教授的辩护律师。在这备受煎熬的两年审理期间，他和妻子Yanli Du以朋友的身份支持着胡教授一家。

Phil Lomonaco attended the University of Tennessee College of Law and was admitted to the United States District Court for the Eastern District in 1985 and the Tennessee Supreme Court in 1986. He is the founding and managing partner of the Law Offices of A. Philip Lomonaco, starting the firm in Knoxville, Tennessee in 1987. He was selected as one of the Best Lawyers in Knoxville for many years, and selected as one of the Best Lawyers in America in 2009 – 2010, 2013 – 2015, 2017 – 2020. Phil is more than Professor Hu’s defense attorney. He and his wife Yanli Du provided support to Hu's family as personal friends through these two difficult years.

社会正义贡献奖：

杰米·赛特菲尔德（Jamie Satterfield）

赛特菲尔德是一位屡获殊荣的记者，拥有30多年的工作经验。她的荣誉包括因揭露美国最大的煤渣泄漏事故中工人中毒而获得斯克里普斯·霍华德奖，并入选东田纳西州作家名人堂。她以高产、精明的犯罪和法庭记者而闻名。但近年来，在2008年金斯顿燃煤电厂灾难之后，她又增加了环保方面的报道。

当田纳西大学胡安明教授成为第一个在田纳西州诺克斯维尔因“中国行动”计划被审判的学者时，大多数媒体报道只是简单地重复了检方提出的指控。然而，就在2021年6月7日审判开始的前一周，美国地方法院法官瓦兰(Thomas a . Varlan)的书记员打电话给赛特菲尔德，建议她报道胡安明的案子。

赛特菲尔德对审判的报道使胡安明的案件成为全国关注的焦点。值得一提的是，赛特菲尔德在7日开始的5篇报道中，揭露了联邦特工为寻找中国间谍而提出的不实指控和美国田纳西大学处理不当等问题。6月16日宣布无效审判后，6月23日至8月2日期间，赛特菲尔德又发表了4篇分析胡安明案的报道。2021年9月9日，政府要求进行二审，但被瓦兰法官驳回。

萨特菲尔德的报告也在改变公众的看法方面发挥了关键作用，公众认为田纳西大学在胡博士的聘用问题以及胡博士被无罪释放后重新安置的问题上处理不当。

Jamie Satterfield is an award-winning journalist with more than 30 years of experience. Honors include a Scripps Howard Award for uncovering the poisoning of the workforce of the nation's largest coal ash spill and induction into the East Tennessee Writer's Hall of Fame. She built a reputation as a prolific and hard-nosed crime and courts reporter, but in recent years added environmental reporting to her beat following the 2008 disaster at the Kingston coal-fired power plant.

When University of Tennessee professor Anming Hu became the first academic to go to trial under the “China Initiative” in Knoxville, TN, most media coverage simply repeated the accusations made by the prosecutors. However, a week before the trial started on June 7, 2021, the clerk of U.S. District Court Judge Thomas A. Varlan called and suggested Jamie Satterfield to KnoxNews to cover Dr. Hu’s trial.

Satterfield’s coverage of the trial brought Dr. Hu’s case under national spotlight.  In particular, her five reports starting on June 7 revealed the false accusations made by federal agents in their zeal to find a spy for China and the mishandling of the case by the University of Tennessee. After the judge declared a mistrial on June 16, Satterfield published four additional reports analyzing Dr. Hu’s case between June 23 and August 2 when the government requested the second trial, which was dismissed by Judge Varlan on September 9, 2021.

Satterfield’s reports also played a pivotal role in changing the public opinion about how the University Tennessee mishandled Dr. Hu’s employment and the reinstallation of his tenured position after Dr. Hu was acquitted of all charges.

这三人一起为美国亚裔和科学界赢得了一场大官司，这可能也促成了“中国行动”计划在2022年2月的终结。

Three of them together won a big case for the Asian American and scientific community, which might have also contributed to the end of the “China Initiative” in Feb. 2022.

张纯如人文奖：

格雷戈里·诺克斯（R. Gregory Nokes）

《为黄金而被屠杀:地狱峡谷的中国人》追溯了诺克斯夫妇漫长的个人旅程，揭露了大屠杀及其后果的细节，以为什么这起罪行被隐瞒了这么久。在书中，他讲述了数以万计的中国人穿越太平洋在美国西部开采金矿和修建铁路的经历，以及对中国人的敌意导致国会在1882年通过了《排华法案》。这本书是对1887年发生在俄勒冈州地狱峡谷的34名中国淘金者被屠杀事件的首次权威记述。

He traveled the world as a reporter and editor for The Associated Press and the Oregonian. A graduate of Willamette University, he attended Harvard University as a Nieman Fellow. His reporting on the 1887 murders of more than thirty Chinese gold miners in Hells Canyon resulted in a formal designation of the site as Chinese Massacre Cove and was the basis for an Oregon Public Broadcasting documentary. Greg and his wife, Candise, live in West Linn, Oregon.

 “Massacred for Gold: The Chinese in Hells Canyon” traces the Nokes’ long, personal journey to expose details of the massacre and its aftermath to understand how the crime was kept in the dark for so long. In the book, he tells of the experience of the tens of thousands of Chinese who journeyed across the Pacific to mine gold and build railroads throughout the American West and how hostility toward the Chinese resulted in Congress enacting the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882. The book is the first authoritative account of the long-forgotten 1887 massacre of as many as 34 Chinese gold miners in Oregon’s Hells Canyon.

美国华人青年领袖奖：

Christina Lu

18岁的Christina Lu是费城中央高中的一名高三学生。2021年11月17日，Christina放学回家时，注意到一群非裔女孩在“折磨”另一群在该校上学的亚裔学生。当她试图干预时，这群骚扰者转向她，将她伤害到需要住院治疗的程度。这次袭击再次引发了费城亚裔社区对种族暴力的担忧。事件发生两天后，Christina的母亲YLin Chen和哥哥Michael Lu为她创立了一个名为“支持Christina倡导公共安全”的GoFundMe募捐，旨在打击亚裔仇恨犯罪，提倡学生安全乘坐公共交通。超过1.3万名捐赠者为为她募捐了超过70万美元。

The attack has reignited fears in Philly’s Asian communities about racially motivated violence. Two days after the attack, YLin Chen and Michael Lu, the mother and brother of Christina, set up a GoFundMe for her, entitled “Support Christina in Advocating for Public Safety”, to campaign against Asian hate crimes and advocate for the safety of students when taking public transportation.

杰出国会议员奖：

拉斯金（Jamin Ben Raskin）

拉斯金（Jamin Ben Raskin）是一名律师和政治家，自2017年起担任马里兰州第8国会选区代表。该选区位于华盛顿特区西北部富裕的蒙哥马利郡，从弗雷德里克郡一直延伸到宾夕法尼亚州边境。他曾于2007年至2016年以民主党党员身份在马里兰州参议院任职。

在国会任职期间，拉斯金是公民权利和公民自由小组委员会的主席，也是国会自由思想核心小组的联合主席。他还是特朗普总统第二次弹劾案的首席弹劾经理，以应对国会大厦袭击事件。在当选为国会议员之前，他是美利坚大学华盛顿法学院的宪法学教授。他在该大学共同创立并指导法律与政府法学硕士项目，并共同创立马歇尔-布伦南宪法素养项目。

拉斯金公开谴责司法部根据“中国行动”计划对华裔科学家进行调查的种族定性，他说:“这对于在建立在平等和正义原则基础上的美国是不可接受的。我们通过联合来拒绝犯罪，我们拒绝集体犯罪或民族或种族犯罪的概念。美国是一个热情好客的地方，它对所有背景的人、创造性的想法、科学研究和探究开放。这就是我们通过允许自由流动的思想和理论将自己确立为创新和技术领域的世界领导者的方式。通过在没有证据的情况下针对华裔人群，我们正在阻碍我们成为世界领袖的能力，我们正在伤害整个社区。”

Jamin Ben Raskin is an American attorney and politician serving as the U.S. representative for Maryland's 8th congressional district since 2017. The district is located in Montgomery County, an affluent suburban county northwest of Washington, D.C., and extends through rural Frederick County to the Pennsylvania border. A member of the Democratic Party, he served in the Maryland State Senate from 2007 to 2016.

In Congress, Raskin is the chair of the Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties and the co-chair of the Congressional Freethought Caucus. He was also the lead impeachment manager for the second impeachment of President Donald Trump in response to the attack on the U.S. Capitol.Prior to his election to Congress, he was a constitutional law professor at American University Washington College of Law, where he co-founded and directed the LL.M. program on law and government and co-founded the Marshall-Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project.

Representative Raskin openly denounced ethnic profiling in DOJ’s investigations of scientists of Chinese descent under China Initiatives, saying: “That is not acceptable in the United States of America, which was founded on principles of equality and justice.  We reject guilt by association, we reject notions of collective guilt or ethnic or racial guilt.  The United States is a welcoming place, it is open to people of all backgrounds and to creative ideas, and to scientific research and inquiry.  That is how we established ourselves as a world leader in innovation and technology, by allowing for free-flowing thoughts and theories.  By targeting people who are ethnically Chinese, without evidence, we are hampering our ability to be that world leader and we are harming an entire community.”
