Earlier this year, poet Amy Uyematsu gave a reading of some of her work as part of the Asian American Studies
"This Shame Called Joy." The poem explores the poet’s emotions about the killing of Latasha Harlins,
a fifteen-year old Black girl, by Soon Ja Du, a Korean American store owner, over a carton of orange juice in a Los Angeles store:
"This lust I cultivate for the ordinary,/the juice of an orange tasting more exquisite/than I ever remember,/cannot be separated from the brutal/death of a child who only wanted/
to drink from the same fruit.
" Soon Ja Du claimed that she had shot Latasha Harlins in self-defense after the girl had attacked her, but the store videotape showed that she had shot Latasha in the back of the head as the girl walked away
from their brief altercation over some orange juice.
The entire incident outraged the Black community in Los Angeles and helped to pave the way for the Los Angeles rebellion of 1992,
or what Korean Americans call Sa-I-Gu. After Uyematsu read the poem, it became clear that certain students, in particular, Korean American students, objected to it.
