H-1B抽签已经开始，大家又进入了一年一度的签证焦虑期，申请人前景迷茫，H-1B是一场没有硝烟的持久战！
为什么说H-1B是持久战？
1．找不到提供H-1B的工作
近年来，愿意对外籍员工提供H-1B支持的公司正逐年减少。就连中国人趋之若鹜的四大也逐步缩减了H-1B申请的比例。举例来说， 芝加哥的普华永道事务所在18财年不给国际学生提供H1B。
2．抽不中H-1B签证
H-1B的中签率一直是让留学生闻风丧胆的数据，就算找到了提供H-1B机会的工作，也不能保证你能成为抽中H-1B的幸运儿。
3．抽中了也难拿绿卡
H-1B一直被视为申请EB-2或EB-3职业移民的跳板，可是近年来，雇主给员工申请绿卡的机会也来越少。对于中小型企业来说，他们很难提供移民局要求的材料，拿不出财务报表和劳工证申请。对于大型企业来说，承担为员工申请绿卡的费用是一笔高昂的支出。当然，还有公司为了防止人才跳槽，会故意拖延帮H1B持有人申请绿卡的时机，在员工H-1B的第五年才开始办理绿卡申请，加上等待工作绿卡最多需要9年时间，这一来公司就能能拖住员工15年！虽然通过H-1B留美工作是多数留学生的选择，但来自公司内部及外部的各种不确定因素会将一个留学生困绑多年。 除了H-1B外，你可以有很多不同的选择、更加快速、自主的方式来留美工作！

To Free Speech from Free Speech: Disability Aesthetics and Queer Marxism in Hou Hsiao-Hsien''''s A City of Sadness
Thursday, April 11, 2019
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
10383 Bunche Hall, UCLA
Talk by Hentyle Yapp, New York University
Michel Foucault notably identified the import of speaking truth to power through the Stoic practice of parrhesia. This notion becomes ever important with popular and activist demands for truth and transparency in light of “fake news,” state secrets, and the suppression of tax documents. Yet, the reliance on truth and transparency through the act of free speech produces a political paradigm that often turns to centrist demands, as “all sides” must be heard. Under dominant liberalism, both conservatives and radical leftists understand themselves as performing parrhesia and are framed as illiberal. In other words, parrhesia and speaking truth come to be limited when situated within liberalist logics.
This presentation asks what might happen if we free the concept of speech from free speech itself? What happens when political speech might be reimagined beyond calls for truth and transparency? Put differently, what might speech look like if not primarily informed through a liberal democratic tradition? To explore these questions, I turn to disability, particularly deafness and muteness, under conditions of colonialism to grapple with formulations of speech that do not fit under truth, transparency, and liberalism. In particular, I examine Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-Hsien’s classic and lauded film A City of Sadness (1989) and focus on its disability aesthetics. This film, which won the Golden Lion prize at the Venice Film festival, displaces sound and speech during Taiwan’s passage from Japanese colonial occupation to mainland Chinese colonization following the second world war. Rather than depicting true images of Japanese and Chinese colonial violence or privileging historical realism, the director notably develops an aesthetic of opacity and illegibility. Hou’s aesthetics, in other words, provide a political critique that does not rely on truth, repair, and recognition. Sound, speech, and silence intertwine across multiple media like radio, performance, and photography, offering indirect mediation as a way to disentangle free speech from liberalism. Further, Tony Leung’s deaf-mute character, Lin Wen-Ching, complicates the oft-presumed association between agential resistance and free speech. Ultimately, this film provides a space to trace a “queer Marxist” genealogy across two Chinas, as informed by the work of Petrus Liu, in order to free speech from its usual liberalist sentiments. By turning to this genealogy, we begin to reimagine different modes of critique, structural analysis, and subject formation beyond liberalism.
