		<description>*correction 

But don’t blame it it all on asian&#039;s who do have this idea of ‘white is right’, they are merely reflecting the erroneous beliefs in mainstream society, that is constructed on social racism.

They just need a little more self esteem and education.</description>

		<description>I find this idea s &#039;mix kids being more beautiful&#039; carries an extreme prejudiced undertone.

We are talking about humans here and in that respect, ourselves and our parents who are asian too,

People need to be reminded that we are not cross breeding animals trying to get that mix nor are we making cocktail drinks. 

Therefore some people should be committing that error when they are looking upon children.

Children are beautiful because they are innocent and youthful. NOT because they are of mixed race.

I know many people see beautiful half models in the media but let&#039;s not be blind to the fact that they were hand picked. There is no guarantee that a person who has kids with a white person will bear  beautiful kids judged on &#039;mix race appearance&#039;. See the ignorance in that?

For that reason I think these are superficial ideas, It saddens me when asians can&#039;t see any self worth or value in their ethnicity and follow popular mainstream views that &#039;half is hot&#039;. 

But don&#039;t blame asian do have this idea of &#039;white is right&#039;, they are merely reflecting the erroneous beliefs of mainstream society that is constructed by social racism, they just a little more self esteem and education.

Some you might think I am overly critical but I&#039;ve heard these ideas many times before and I could only think of this as just another byproduct of social inequality and colonial assimilation.

Wherever this idea came from, it&#039;s definitely not something tthat originated from asian&#039;s themselves.</description>

		<description>Concerning Asian American politics, don&#039;t go discounting The Internets as a completely useless medium.  2 out of those 5 examples you gave are internet-based or known &lt;i&gt;because&lt;/i&gt; of the internet. Fallout specializes in &lt;i&gt;blogs&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;podcasts&lt;/i&gt;.  Would we know WongFu productions if their videos weren&#039;t virally spread through YouTube?
Organizing workshops to discuss the issues and current state of Asian American politics takes up time and money and isn&#039;t readily accessible for every activist in the country.  Doing that shit on the internet is (mostly) free and damn near instantaneous and accessible for everyone with an internet connection versus the 800 bucks for a plane ticket.

So jaewhan, think D or lopes has the time to start making feel-good mini-movies, or shucking out brand t-shirts? What about press kits? We need to start affecting the REAL WORLD, y&#039;know.</description>
