Half of Asian Americans feel unsafe in the U.S., annual survey finds
An annual survey from the Asian American Foundation shows the effects of persistent stereotypes against Asian Americans in the U.S.
The most common causes of these feelings, respondents said, were discrimination directly due to one's race, and a lack of representation in leadership.While 83% of those who responded saw China as a national security threat, 79% of respondents didn't think people of Chinese descent living in America posed a threat to America."It is startling to see that more than one in four of Americans still think Asian Americans are more loyal to their perceived country of origin than to the U.S.
Separate reporting from Nielsen digs further into that cultural issue: It found Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander audiences felt they had some of the worst representation in all of film and television.The Asian American Foundation's survey collected answers from 5,235 respondents in the U.S., all of them older than 16.
