June 2012 marks the 30th anniversary of the murder of Vincent Chin, a young Chinese-American man from Detroit who was bludgeoned to death with a baseball bat by two men. His killers never served a single day in jail. Asian Americans consider the Vincent Chin case and its aftermath as the genesis of the Asian American civil rights movement.

a4, the Asian American Bar Association of New York (AABANY), and the Museum of Chinese in America (MoCA) have joined forces to present "Revisiting Vincent," a Vincent Chin trial re-enactment with a cast of professional actors. Artistic direction for the event is by a4 staff members Soriya Chum and Elena Chang.
