位于马塔潘（Mattapan）的希望山公墓（Mount Hope Cemetery）是新英格兰地区最早的华人墓地，安葬着超过1,500位“旅居者”（sojourners）。他们是波士顿最早的一批华人移民，其中许多人生活在19世纪末《排华法案》（Chinese Exclusion Act）实施期间。面对歧视与移民限制，许多人被禁止往返中美之间，也无法将家人接来团聚。他们大多辛勤劳作以养家糊口，原本打算日后返回中国。然而，许多人未能实现这一愿望，最终孤独地在此离世。该墓地见证并提醒人们那个时代的种族隔离与不平等。 这些墓地最初被视为临时安葬之地。根据粤语文化传统，逝者遗骸应被送回中国的祖籍村庄，象征“落叶归根”，以此纪念这些为家庭作出牺牲的男性。早期，中华公所 (Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association) 曾协助将遗骸运回中国，但由于财政困难、战争、与中共关系中断等多种原因，这一工作后来停止。 由于华人墓地年久失修，状况日益恶化，紐英崙華人历史協会（Chinese Historical Society o

越裔美籍艺术家 Ngoc Tran Vu 谈历史的重塑: 多切斯特的小西贡及其艺术 Ngoc Tran Vu 在多切斯特长大，她经常看到父亲身着南越军装，与退伍老兵们一起在波士顿的越南战争纪念碑前参加纪念仪式。但自从是孩童时代，这些经历就让她感到困惑。纪念碑缅怀着美国士兵，他们的名字镌刻在石头上，却丝毫没有提及在波士顿重建家园的越南难民，也没有提及像她父亲一样曾与美国人并肩作战的老兵。 “我总是想，我们在这里，却不被认可，”Vu 回忆道，“对我们来说，拥有属于我们自己的纪念碑，或者说一个空间，意味着什么？” 这个童年时就埋下的疑问，如今正在波士顿小西贡文化区中心的 Town Field 公园里逐渐成形。近三年来，Vu 一直领导着“1975年越南移民纪念碑”项目。这是一项由社区主导的计划，旨在打造波士顿首个永久性文化地标，以纪念越南移民群体。如果成功，它不仅将成为越南裔美国人的地标，也将成为所有移民和难民群体在这座自诩为“归属之城”的城市中寻求认可的象征。 “请告诉我们如何才能成为志愿者” 这个项目最引人注目之处在于它充分体现了社区的自主性。“这真

两位美国穆斯林权益律师对“恐伊斯兰症”抬头与现乐观迹象的看法 南佛罗里达州的新闻频道 NBC 6 播放的一段视频显示，几名执法人员的装束看起来仿佛正准备奔赴战场。这些身着迷彩头盔和防弹背心的执法人员大步走过一班西南航空从田纳西州（Tennessee）飞往佛罗里达州（Florida）的航班过道，而画面中的乘客们则举起了双手。这群执法人员径直走向一名男子，随后将其带离现场。这架原定从田纳西州飞往佛罗里达州的航班在此前因接到报告称该男子举止可疑，而在佐治亚州进行了紧急迫降。据新闻报道，他究竟犯了什么“罪”？仅仅是因为他在飞行途中，让手机里的斋月祈祷应用发出了提示音。 “起初，我们简直不敢相信这是真的，也不确定报道是否准确，”美国-伊斯兰关系委员会（CAIR）马萨诸塞州分会执行主任塔希拉·阿马图尔-瓦杜德（Tahirah Amatul-Wadud）说道。她表示，她的同事们曾在内部聊天群中讨论此事，并对此感到震惊。她指出，“Athan”这款应用在穆斯林群体中非常普及；况且当时正值斋月，即穆斯林的斋戒与祈祷之月，今年的斋月始于二月下旬，止于三月下旬。然而，这
