Join Emmy Award–winning journalist Dion Lim and San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins for a timely conversation on justice, accountability and community impact. 

They will examine two tragic cases—Grandma Yik Oi Huang and Grandpa Vicha, elderly members of the Asian American community who were fatally attacked. While the legal outcomes differed, both cases deeply affected the community. 

What does justice truly look like when vulnerable lives are lost to senseless violence? 

This forum will explore not only the courtroom outcomes but also the lasting emotional and societal impact—inviting community members and advocates into a thoughtful dialogue about justice in practice and what it means for those most affected.
