Steven Yeun of Walking Dead talked about having to reject roles that specifically stereotyped Asians. Imagine doing that as an Asian man who traditionally finds it hard to find roles in the first place. Or look at the dearth of the lead roles for Asian men. Read this article from Aziz Ansari: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;11&#x2F;15&#x2F;arts&#x2F;television&#x2F;aziz-ansari-on-acting-race-and-hollywood.html?_r=0" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nytimes.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;11&#x2F;15&#x2F;arts&#x2F;television&#x2F;aziz-ansar...</a><p>And given the disparity in online dating stats and interracial marriage stats, you&#x27;d be hard pressed to tell me that stereotypes have zero bearing on the effect on Asian men (and Black women).<p>For ceilings, there are numerous studies and articles outlining how Asians may enter companies as employees but don&#x27;t advance nearly as high as other ethnicities, being absent from some of the highest levels of the company. Consider the number of tech workers who are Asian and then compare it to the number of Asians who end up moving up to executive levels. Is it proportional? Not at all. Of course, critics will just say it&#x27;s because of Asians not having the right skills. Strange. Couldn&#x27;t we say the same about the lack of Blacks&#x2F;Hispanics&#x2F;women in tech? Look also into studies comparing the number of Asian lawyers compared to Asian judges. It&#x27;s also not proportional.<p>Of course, we can also look at stats that show Asians often have to perform higher than other ethnicities to garner entrances into colleges. How is that not a penalty to their race?<p>The argument of Asians don&#x27;t suffer as much as Blacks therefore don&#x27;t have it bad is trite and non-constructive. Black and Hispanic vote counts much more in the political narrative than Asians. Even in my local city which has close to 40% Asians, our representation in the city council only has about 5-10% Asians council members. If you say something racist against a black person, like Donald Sterling or Paula Deen, you could lose a LOT. Yet if you say something racist against an Asian person on TV, you&#x27;re barely forced to make a mea culpa.
