	Summer 2012 education and research intern Christina Lee is a senior pursuing a bachelor’s degree in History at Yale University. Her main area of historical research centers on Asian American history, particularly in civil rights activism in the postwar period. Having been inspired by her academic coursework in Asian American history in college, she recognizes the need for spreading awareness of Asian American civil rights history and values the Korematsu Institute’s dedication to promoting civil rights and long-standing change through education. She is excited to join the Korematsu Institute team, and she hopes to link her academic passions with her vocational interests in Asian American legal activism in the future.
