  1. 5:13 Yes, their are Latino people who are in poverty, African Americans who are still getting discriminated against and racially profiled (eg. Starbucks, Water selling incident, apartment incident, etc. etc.) I don’t see such treatment or conditions as prevalent to Asians, who large communities are well known for being successful and somewhat much more affluent than other minorities. Personal opinion based on social observation and current events.

  2. And also racism too is on the rise for Latinos. Overall, not nearly as common for Asian Americans.

  3. Dylan Nguyen Please do not compare, of course Asian Americans have had discrimination but never, ever on par of lynchings, of dogs being sent on you, of hoses being sprayed on you, beating you calling you names, assaulting you. It’s not from the outside looking in, considering how these are problems Africans Americans are to an extent Latinos are facing today while comparable there not happening to Asians. And what I mean by this is yes it happens but more severely and more commonly to African Africans then Asians ten fold in fact a hundred fold. Asians by statistic have a higher chance of better living and being less discriminated upon in many, many many aspects of life in this country so of course you will never know the life a Latino or African American is going there, but you can bet that he/she knows the life an Asian Americans is living or has the proper chance to live. In fact, no offense, at times I also notice an arrogance of some Asians, not all, on their status and socio economic background and how they look down on others, it makes me sick and this goes back to 90s LA. Look up an incident in 1991-1992 Korean store in Koreatown and you’ll greet the picture of how they were treated upon and look at the interviews from African Americans in that area. Frankly, I am appalled and I’m not saying it’s all people but a good amount where it is certainly noticeable

  4. Dylan Nguyen I’m sorry for my attitude and if I offended, I’m sorry I didn’t mean it. I hope you can forgive me.
