Asians on the Edge

The discussion of racial and ethnic minority issues has traditionally been a Black-White discussion. As such, American Indians, Latinos, and Asians have been left out of this discussion. Such exclusion does not make scientific sense, as it makes conclusions about race relations less generalizable. It also comes with a cost, as the excluded groups are often asked to give up their respective ethnicities to join the discussion. The present article, discusses some of these scientific and social losses and suggests that prominent African American and White leaders serve as allies for the inclusion of all groups in the discussion of race relations, focusing particularly on the Asian experience. Such allies must come not only from academicians but also from community activists and those in power positions in the media
