What IS the point, anyway?

cnr_meh.jpgEarly response regarding this website has been… well, interesting.

what does living as an Asian-American mean, anyhow? I’m not being rhetorical or sarcastic (okay so i am a little), but just wondering what’s the point of becoming collective in this theme when also a theme in “Asian-America” is to dispel stereotypes. maybe i’m just miffed becaust the posts on 8 Asians aren’t particularly insightful yet, just people commenting and observing that there are people of Asian descent doing whatever they do, in the United States. big deal. tell me what it means to be of Asian descent, and living in the United States.

So, in my Barbara Walters-like role, I ask you: What does it mean to be of Asian decent, living in the United States?

Thanks for rating this! Now tell the world how you feel - .
(Nah, it's cool; just take me back.)
