I was reminded of that fact by the cosmic conjoining of the recent spate of hate crimes against Asian Americans and the trial of Derek Chauvin, the white former Minneapolis police officer whose knee pinned George Floyd, a Black man, allegedly leading to Mr. Floyd’s death. Three years ago, as I was walking along lower Sixth Avenue on one of those crisp late spring afternoons when the blue of the sky has the ... by Carlos Sandoval
