[August 12, 2010] Life in a Pocket: the Chinese legend in the U.S.A., a novel based on the life story of the 4A's founder, Mr. Wei Zhang, was published in August 2010.

[June, 2005] Mr. Wei Zhang was recently recognized as a "Workplace Warrior" by NELA. The honor was bestowed on Mr. Wei Zhang during the NELA National Convention in Philadelphia in June, 2005. He was awarded this honor for pouring his heart and finances back into the community. He founded the Asian American Affairs Association (4A), a non-profit organization dedicated to helping Asian-Americans in seeking equal opportunity, and to combat discrimination. According to Terisa E. Chaw, Executive Director of The National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA), "To my knowledge, this is a first. Most plaintiffs in these employment discrimination cases are invariably quite exhausted and emotionally spent, large award notwithstanding. They just want to get on with their lives. We were quite impressed with Mr. Zhang's passion and thoughtfulness of others, despite his arduous, nearly five year long case to final resolution."
