Asian Americans for Jesse Jackson
In January 1984 Ranko Yamada met with others in the Bay Area whose convictions mirrored his.
They agreed to sponsor a meeting to initiate a Northern California Asian committee . Contacting friends and organizations they'd worked with over the years, the six of us — Ying Lee Kelley, Carol Ono, David Kakishiba, Steve Hom, Butch Wing, and Ranko Yamada — anticipated an attendance of maybe 60 people. But manning the reception table during the course of this January 12th meeting, Yamada greeted more than 100 people.
- We gave ourselves a name — Asian Americans for Jesse Jackson — elected officers, and collected $500 on the spot![1]
