In the Spotlight
Thirty-five years ago, on June 19, Vincent Chin was out at a local bar for his bachelor party. While he was enjoying himself with his friends, two men, Ronald Ebens and Michael Nitz, confronted Chin. The two men were Chrysler workers and they confused Chin for being Japanese. During the confrontation, they were heard shouting racial slurs and saying, "It's because of you little motherf--ers that we're out of work."
