She reveals a community deeply rooted in America's core values-freedom and equality-values they've championed for over 150 years. From battling for civil rights in the 19th century to pushing for justice today, Raleigh shows Asian Americans have consistently stood on the front lines of change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday, as the fastest-growing racial and ethnic group in the U.S., Asian Americans aren't dwelling on past wrongs or seeking handouts. They're rolling up their sleeves, diving into the political arena, and helping steer the future of our democracy.
