"It’s not fair."
— Vincent Chin’s final words (via xoericxo)
(via bu-liu-xia-deactivated20121217)
One of the most enduring stereotypes of Asians in the United States is that of the model minority. While most people have heard that Asians must all be smart, successful, and nerdy, we often overlook a key aspect of this stereotype: that Asians are also quiet and stay out of politics. Of course, as with all stereotypes, this is not always true. As the anti-model minority, I want to speak out against oppression, to address the realities of race in America, and to prove that we Asian Americans will not take shit from anybody without a fight.
