Hyphen Lynks: Turkey Edition

Claire Light - November 28, 2010

What happened in the world while you were making a glutton of yourself and screaming at your relatives?

  • Bobby Jindal says he's not running for president in 2012 [1], since he plans on running for Governor again in 2011. Too hard to raise funds twice?
  • Fil Am Ray Parks Jr. to play for Georgia Tech [2].
  • Indian Americans protest Newsweek's depiction of Obama as Hindu god Shiva [3].
  • A Las Vegas Chi Am newspaper has defeated a defamation lawsuit [4] from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and may even be able to win their legal fees back.
  • Maryland IndiAms arrested for bribery and corruption [5].
  • Interview with Koream Chi Young-suk [6], who is to head the International Publishing Association at a time of crisis.
  • Interview with Aasif Mandvi [7] about his new film, Today's Special.
  • Korean American 13-year-old detained [8] at TianAnMen Square for protesting ongoing Korean Tensions.
  • Indian American convenience store owners joining forces with Coca Cola [9] to protest federal soft drink taxes.
  • Kamala Harris becomes California's first Asian American [10] (as well as first African American) Attorney General.
  • If you were wondering what had happened with L.A.'s proposed "Little Bangladesh" (to be set squarely within the unofficial Koreatown, dominated by Latinos,) here you go [11].

There's more, but we know you want to watch the 35-minute film "Agents of Secret Stuff" (below,) so have at it!
