Book excerpt: Since the 1960s, the Model Minority stereotype is a terminology that has been inextricably linked with the Asian American/immigrant population. This stereotype suggests that Asian Americans are homogenous, intelligent, submissive to societal norms and emphasizes heavily in education and have been successful in American society. Despite the overwhelmingly positive qualities of the term, it remains to be a falsified view toward the minority population. The authors explored the historical and social context of the stereotype in three facets: education, employment and the media. The authors found that Asian American college students believe the Model Minority stereotype applies to all Asian groups; however, the benefits of being labeled with that term remain ambiguous. The findings indicated that government assistance is needed among Asian Americans, but Asian Americans do not seek supportive services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Unraveling the "Model Minority" Stereotype: Listening to Asian American Youth extends Stacey Lee’s groundbreaking research on the educational experiences and achievement of Asian American youth. Lee provides a comprehensive update of social science research to reveal the ways in which the larger structures of race and class play out in the lives of Asian American high school students, especially regarding presumptions that the educational experiences of Koreans, Chinese, and Hmong youth are all largely the same. In her detailed and probing ethnography, Lee presents the experiences of these students in their own words, providing an authentic insider perspective on identity and interethnic relations in an often misunderstood American community. This second edition is essential reading for anyone interested in Asian American youth and their experiences in U.S. schools. Stacey J. Lee is Professor of Educational Policy Studies at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. She is the author of Up Against Whiteness: Race, School, and Immigrant Youth. “Stacey Lee is one of the most powerful and influential scholarly voices to challenge the ‘model minority’ stereotype. Here in its second edition, Lee’s book offers an additional paradigm to explain the barriers to educating young Asian Americans in the 21st century—xenoracism (i.e., racial discrimination against immigrant minorities) intersecting with issues of social class.” —Xue Lan Rong, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill “Breaking important new theoretical and empirical ground, this revised edition is a must read for anyone interested in Asian American youth, race/ethnicity, and processes of transnational migration in the 21st century.” —Lois Weis, State University of New York Distinguished Professor “Clear, accessible, and significantly updated…. The book’s core lesson is as relevant today as it was when the first edition was published, presenting an urgent call to dismantle the dangerous stereotypes that continue to structure inequality in 21st century America.” —Teresa L. McCarty, Alice Wiley Snell Professor of Education Policy Studies, Arizona State University Praise for the First Edition! "Sure to stimulate further research in this area and will be of interest to teachers, teacher educators, researchers, and students alike." —Teachers College Record "A must read for those interested in a different approach in understanding our racial experience beyond the stale and repetitious polemics that so often dominate the public debate." —The Journal of Asian Studies “Well written and jargon-free, this book…documents genuinely candid views from Asian-American students, often laden with their own prejudices and ethnocentrism.” —MultiCultural Review

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Dream of success for many Asian Americans includes the highest levels of education. But what does it mean to live that success? In Straight A’s Asian American students at Harvard reflect on their common experiences with discrimination, immigrant communities, their relationships to their Asian heritage, and their place in the university. They also explore the difficulties of living up to family expectations and the real-world effects of the "model minority" stereotype. While many of the issues they face are familiar to a wide swath of college students, their examinations of race, ethnicity, gender and sexuality, and culture directly speak to the Asian American experience in U.S. higher education. Unique and revealing, intimate and unreserved, Straight A’s furthers the conversation about immigrant histories, racial and ethnic stereotypes, and multiculturalism in contemporary American society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Killing the Model Minority Stereotype comprehensively explores the complex permutations of the Asian model minority myth, exposing the ways in which stereotypes of Asian/Americans operate in the service of racism. Chapters include counter-narratives, critical analyses, and transnational perspectives. This volume connects to overarching projects of decolonization, which social justice educators and practitioners will find useful for understanding how the model minority myth functions to uphold white supremacy and how complicity has a damaging impact in its perpetuation. The book adds a timely contribution to the model minority discourse. “The contributors to this book demonstrate that the insidious model minority stereotype is alive and well. At the same time, the chapters carefully and powerfully examine ways to deconstruct and speak back to these misconceptions of Asian Americans. Hartlep and Porfilio pull together an important volume for anyone interested in how racial and ethnic stereotypes play out in the lives of people of color across various contexts.” - Vichet Chhuon, University of Minnesota Twin Cities “This volume presents valuable additions to the model minority literature exploring narratives challenging stereotypes in a wide range of settings and providing helpful considerations for research and practice.” - David W. Chih, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign “Asian Pacific Islander adolescents and young adults are especially impacted by the model minority stereotype, and this volume details the real-life consequences for them and for all communities of color. The contributors provide a wide-ranging critique and deconstruction of the stereotype by uncovering many of its manifestations, and they also take the additional step of outlining clear strategies to undo the stereotype and prevent its deleterious effects on API youth. Killing the Model Minority Stereotype: Asian American Counterstories and Complicity is an essential read for human service professionals, educators, therapists, and all allies of communities of color.” - Joseph R. Mills, LICSW, Asian Counseling and Referral Service, Seattle WA

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The often aggregated reports of academic excellence of Asian American students as a whole, compared to students from other ethnic groups offers compelling evidence that Asian Americans are more academically successful than their ethnic counterparts, particularly in the area of mathematics. These comparative data have generated many topics of discussion including the model minority stereotype: a misconception that all Asian Americans are high academic achievers. Research has shown that this seemingly positive stereotype produces negative effects in Asian students. The aim of this study is to examine differences in mathematics success levels and beliefs about the model minority stereotype among different generations of Asian American college students. This study focuses on comparing three different generations of Asian American students with respect to: (1) their success and confidence in mathematics, (2) their personal views on the factors that contribute to their success, (3) their perceptions of the model minority stereotype and (4) how they believe the stereotype affects them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines women's interpretations of model minority stereotypes of Asian American women in prime-time television. This stereotype depicts Asian Americans as well educated, intelligent, competitive, hardworking and successful career women. Using focus group discussions, this study recalls perceptions and explores potential effects of model minority stereotypes in prime-time television among women of varied racial-ethnic backgrounds. The study finds that both Asian/Asian American women and women from other racial-ethnic groups confirm belief in the model minority media stereotype in prime-time television. The selfperception and others' perception of Asian American women as a model minority imposes stress on Asian/Asian American women in terms of gender role, academic performance and career achievement. Additionally, perceptions toward the model minority media stereotype among women of varied racial-ethnic backgrounds influence intergroup relations, interracial contact and evaluation of the model minority media image. Implications indicate that the model minority media stereotype has both positive and negative influences on Asian/Asian American women and other racial-ethnic groups. The study suggests that American media can increase the frequency and diversity of Asian American women's media representation to reduce the negative societal influence of one-dimensional media stereotypes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With their apparent success in schools and careers, Asian Americans have long been viewed by white Americans as the "model minority." Yet few Americans realize the lives of many Asian Americans are constantly stressed by racism. This reality becomes clear from the voices of Asian Americans heard in this first in-depth book on the experiences of racism among Asian Americans from many different nations and social classes. Chou and Feagin assess racial stereotyping and discrimination from dozens of interviews across the country with Asian Americans in a variety of settings, from elementary schools to colleges, workplaces, and other public arenas. They explore the widely varied ways of daily coping that Asian Americans employ-some choosing to conform and others actively resisting. This book dispels notions that Asian Americans are universally "favored" by whites and have an easy time adapting to life in American society. The authors conclude with policy measures that can improve the lives not only of Asian Americans but also of other Americans of color.

Book excerpt: "Those who find themselves living in the Americas, no matter what their ethnic, educational, or economic background, must ultimately 'become their own personalities, ' melding their point of view with their points of origin and their places of settlement. For immigrant or refugee families and their children, this 'process of becoming' often means struggling with the contradictions of race, generation, economics, class, work, religion, gender, and sexuality within the family, workplace, or school.... Perhaps nowhere is the struggle more raw, poignant, and moving than in the words of the younger generation at the cusp of such becoming. We readers can also find insights within the candid accounts of their personal lives and in the experiences of their family and friends."--from Balancing Two WorldsBalancing Two Worlds highlights themes surrounding the creation of Asian American identity. This book contains fourteen first-person narratives by Asian American college students, most of whom have graduated during the first five years of the twenty-first century. Their engaging accounts detail the students' very personal struggles with issues of assimilation, gender, religion, sexuality, family conflicts, educational stereotypes, and being labeled the "model minority." Some of the students relate stories drawn from their childhood and adolescent experiences, while others focus more on their college experiences at Dartmouth. Anyone who wants to learn about the changing concept of race in America and what it's like to be a young American of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Burmese, or South Asian descent--from educators and college administrators to students and their families--will find Balancing Two Worlds a compelling read and a valuable resource.

Book excerpt: Research has revealed important information about Asian American students being left out of race discussions and literature because of the model minority stereotype. Increasing awareness is important in understanding how racial stereotypes affect the college experience, mental health and professional implications for this group of students. The model minority stereotype views Asian American students as successful and hardworking with little to no resistance. The underlying issue appears when Asian American students internalize these stereotypes and things do not go according to plan, not living up to the expectations of the stereotype. This can manifest itself into symptoms of mental health, which create barriers towards success. First, this project looks to disaggregate the Asian American student population by modifying the admission document to include the diverse subgroups within the Asian race. Next, the information guide hat is intended to help guide professionals in developing tailored services for this unique group by describing the campus experience of Asian American students, the mental health issues, and then implications for professional practice.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asian Americans are seen as the model minority and not needing any assistance within higher education, given their history of success. Although there is some research that indicates that Asian Americans face a glass ceiling and are underrepresented in leadership positions, little research has been conducted on leadership preparation for Asian Americans, especially in college where many of these skills are typically learned. Examining the experiences of Asian American college student leaders provides valuable knowledge about how these students were able to successfully navigate through their higher education experience and pursue a leadership position. This study utilizes qualitative methodology to help understand how Asian American college students experience, interpret, and perceive their race as playing a role in their leadership participation. A semi-structured interview approach was utilized to interview twenty-four Asian American college students who were current leaders within extracurricular organizations at two highly selective public universities in California. Twelve paid university staff members who worked closely with Asian American college students at the same two universities, including faculty, student support services, and administration, were also interviewed to obtain a more informed and multidimensional perspective. The interviews explored the experiences of Asian American student leaders and the institutional factors that Asian Americans perceived as either enabling or inhibiting the pursuit of leadership opportunities. The results reported are divided into six distinct categories: entry into leadership, levels of support, campus, being Asian American, model minority stereotype, and Asian American leadership. First, the reasons why students became involved in student organizations, what lead them to pursue leadership positions within those student organizations, and benefits that students saw as a result of their participation and leadership in student organizations are discussed. Next, different levels where students might receive support for their leadership in general and their Asian American leadership are investigated. Then, campus dynamics and being Asian American is explored. Further, students described how the model minority stereotype influenced their lives. Lastly, Asian American leadership is explored, including how Asian Americans have not yet had the chance to become leaders and Asian Americans not being encouraged to become leaders.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Asian American students are generally the largest group of minority students on college campuses, they are often neglected in higher education research due to their status as invisible minorities. The need to study this group is even more critical as the percentage of Asian Americans studying in the STEM fields continues to grow. The purpose of this study was to examine the experiences and perceptions of Asian American students based on the "model minority" myth. The study looks at various influencing components such as the home environment, stigmas, and the importance of saving face for these students. By using a qualitative approach, the study was able to examine the intersection of family, cultural influences, and the impact of the "model minority" myth for six students. Four prevailing themes emerged from the findings in this study: the importance of family, saving face, the "model minority" myth, and the stigma associated with seeking help. The study suggests that by focusing on these four themes, institutions can better serve their Asian American student population in lowering their anxiety and stress.
