520 |a Part of a special issue on Asian and Pacific Islander populations within the U.S. Asian-American urban neighborhoods have been crucial sites for the enactment of social justice activism among Asian and Pacific Islander communities. Following World War II, Asian-American enclaves became threatened by rising land values, public-private efforts at removing and rezoning the enclaves, and the use of eminent domain to force poor or elderly immigrant residents from their homes and businesses. These grievances led to the coalescence of activist movements around neighborhoods and important buildings, which often grew into larger movements for social justice. Both traditional and newer urban enclaves can and do mobilize around housing issues, labor practices, electoral issues, police brutality, and hate crimes. The role of the ethnic enclave in the Asian-American social justice movement is further discussed.
