As a proportion of the U.S. population, Asian-Americans fare well beyond their numbers in admission to top colleges. Asian-Americans make up about 5 percent of the population of public high schools in the United States and were 22 percent of those admitted to Harvard's freshman class this year [2017]. Asian-Americans make up 26 percent of the undergraduate enrollment at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Of course, those numbers may not reflect the full extent of qualified Asian-American applicants. And there is no consensus on what data would actually demonstrate illegal discrimination.

Steve James wrote:My point was/is that all you're doing is deflecting the hate to another source. It wasn't about "groups" at all until you brought up a video from the past about a subject (college admissions) that had nothing to do with what's been happening recently, and why Asians are demonstrating in the streets now.

But hey, just look at the common attitudes against Chinese. The recent meeting with US and China started off with all kinds of aggressive accusations against China from the US side.
But I haven't seen anything done about racism agains Chinese or Japanese. Those seem to be Ok.
Steve James wrote:That's not true. Just a week or so ago, the Seuss foundation removed six books from publication. Some were removed because of negative portrayals of Asians, specifically of Chinese. The debate had been going on for years, but it was immediately condemned by "the right" as an example of "cancel culture."

The US got slapped by China publicly as it should have,
the way the US representatives started out.
Some very telling statements made by China, very strong.
