Vincent Wang stands as a powerful voice for justice, equality, and inclusion. Through his leadership in the Ohio Chinese American Association, the Asian American Coalition of Ohio, and the APA Justice Task Force, he has worked tirelessly to unite and uplift Asian American and Pacific Islander communities—ensuring that their voices are heard and their stories are seen across Ohio and throughout the nation.

Mr. Wang co-founded the Ohio Chinese American Association after a statewide rally held in solidarity with more than forty cities protesting the unjust prosecution of a Chinese American police officer. He was one of the leaders in the fight to clear the name of a Chinese American scientist in Ohio who was wrongfully accused of espionage, helping to secure the largest settlement in U.S. Department of Commerce history.

Working hand in hand with civil rights organizations, community leaders and public officials, Mr. Wang helped bring an end to the federal “China Initiative,” which had unfairly targeted Asian Americans, undermined academic freedom, and hindered open scientific exchange.

Through his vision, courage, and compassion, Vincent Wang has strengthened democracy, inspired civic participation, and advanced the timeless cause of equal rights for all.
