There is a common myth that Asian Amercians are the model minority, in part, because of the false perception that they do not "complain" or are adversely affected by racial prejudice in the U.S.  As you learned from your text, Asian Americans face discrimination, are stereotyped, and experience hardship achieving the "American Dream" similar to other racial minorities. Review the attached videos and use one or more of the questions listed below as a guide and basis for discussion with your classmates.  Guidelines are to complete each post before the due date with a minimum of between 75 - 100 words. Include in your posts some concepts and vocabulary from the assigned video, textbook, and/or lecture slides to demonstrate your understanding of the lesson for the module. 

What about the video/activity/reading was most surprising to you or intrigued you the most?

How would you apply what you have learned?

How does the video/activity/reading remind you of a personal event or story?

How does the video/activity/reading relate to concepts you learned in class or from the text?

Part A: Your first post is due Wednesday and should end with an original question of your own for your classmates to answer.

Part B: Your additional posts, due no later than Sunday will include answering 2 of your classmates’ questions.
