Artists Confront Asian-American Stereotypes

[karadinart]

There are almost 14 million Asian Americans. (including my three cousins!) I would like to see this show, and I also wonder why I hear about on the BBC!

BUT OH MY GOD! Roger Shimoumura's Work! Japanese and American pop culture merged into one, I think I just met my new hero!

This also relates to my spouse who is an immigrant, but a 'good' one (being English) as oppossed to my friend's spouse who is Mexican 'bad' you have completely different reactions, and my friends who are Arab and Muslim.

You can also relate it to my friends and my child who are disabled, and how people react to them, the comment 'your child doesn't look disabled' or my friend who is in a wheelchair being pushed aside by someone like a shopping trolly.
