He pleaded not guilty in both the federal and New York cases. “Brian Kolfage and Andrew Badolato abused the trust of donors to We Build the Wall and stole hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations to line their own pockets,” said U.S. Attorney Damian Williams in a press release. “The defendants have now been held accountable for their criminal conduct.” The crowdfunded campaign ultimately raised over $25 million. Despite Kolfage asserting that all of the funds would be put toward their mission and purpose, the defendants used the money for their personal use and took steps to conceal it by using fake invoices and contracts, DOJ said.

Today, the focus has shifted to extremists engaging in racial profiling of Chinese Americans.” The Vincent Chin Institute aims to end anti-Asian hate in the U.S. and advance education on Asian American issues. It’s named after a Chinese American man murdered in 1982 by two white auto workers who blamed Asians for layoffs in the industry. Advocates say his death the spurred a movement that became a watershed moment in the history of Asian American civil rights. “Today, over 40 years later, what we learned is that the rhetoric used around economic competition with Asian countries can result in harm and even murder of Asian Americans here at home,” Chu said.

With education materials available in several Asian languages, she foresees it making an impact. “I’ll never forget learning about Vincent Chin,” Chu said. “I’m beyond confident that the legacy of the Vincent Chin Institute will be extensive.” Sakshi Venkatraman Sakshi Venkatraman is a reporter for NBC Asian America.
