Hello fellow soompiers!
I was wondering if anyone could help me find clips of Asian American discrimination in media, mainly focusing on Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, and Filipinos.

Here’s an example: Teri Hatcher on Desperate Housewives

Any kind of help is greatly appreciated, even a description of the vids or whatnot.






OH Boo!! I just noticed I misspelled discrimination in the topic title.

Ooh, you're right!
Thank you very much!
It's definitely a big help.

not really clips but...

the whole movie Short Circuit 2.... instead of getting an Asian actor, they had a white guy in heavy makeup for a 'brown face' for the whole movie.


also the casting of the Dragon Ball and Avatar movies....Asian worlds with white main characters.

I recently wrote a research paper about this topic, hahaha.

I used Sixteen Candles as my main point, with the character Long Duk Dong being an awful stereotype. I'm sure you could find clips of him online/elsewhere.
