我們反對對中國留學生之打壓

今天讀到一則新聞，美國某些政客又一次炒作“中國留學生威脅論”，提議限制特定專業的簽證，甚至對已有合法身分的學生進行審查。我感到憤怒，也感到無比的遺憾。這樣的打壓不僅是對個體夢想的踐踏，更是對教育自由與人文精神的背離。

我們反對對中國留學生的打壓，不是因為盲目護短，而是因為他們本該是連接兩國人民的橋樑，是知識共享、文化交流的紐帶。他們用自己的努力融入美國社會，貢獻科研、參與社區、創造價值。他們不是“間諜”，不是“威脅”，更不是政治鬥爭中的犧牲品。

打壓留學生，不會讓美國更安全，只會讓世界更加分裂。真正強大的國家，應當有信心與包容，鼓勵來自不同文化背景的青年才俊，在公平的平台上自由競爭、自由思辨。

寫下這段話，是為了提醒自己：我們不僅要聲援受影響的留學生，更要堅守一個原則——教育，不應被政治污染；夢想，不該被偏見扼殺。

願每一位遠渡重洋的學子，都能在尊重與理解中，走出自己的光明之路。

We Oppose the Suppression of Chinese Students

Today I came across yet another news report about U.S. politicians pushing to limit visas for Chinese students, citing so-called “national security threats.” Some are even proposing retroactive scrutiny of those who are already studying here legally. I felt a deep sense of anger—and sorrow. This kind of suppression doesn’t just trample on individual dreams; it betrays the fundamental spirit of academic freedom and human dignity.

We oppose the targeting of Chinese students not out of blind nationalism, but because they deserve fairness. These young people come to the U.S. in pursuit of knowledge, not politics. They work hard, contribute to research, engage with their communities, and enrich campuses with diverse perspectives. They are not “spies.” They are not “threats.” They are students—bridge-builders between cultures, not pawns in geopolitical games.

Cracking down on them will not make America safer. It will only deepen mistrust and further divide the world. A truly strong nation should have the confidence and openness to welcome talents from all backgrounds and allow free exchange of ideas.

Writing this today is my small protest, and my promise to remember: education should never be weaponized. And no one’s dream should ever be extinguished by prejudice.

To every student who crossed an ocean to learn—may your journey be met with respect, not suspicion, and may your light never be dimmed.
