African American does not hold up. Factually, not accurate. Why? Africa, like Asia is a big continent with diverse cultures. Moreover, not everyone from Africa is black. Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco are all African countries but they're also Arab countries. If you insist on being PC then technically, people from these countries who come to the United States are African American. And what about a white person from South Africa who moves to America? Technically, he's also an African American.

Malcolm Nicoll I'm just having some bants chill

Malcolm Nicoll white South Africans are European they are immigrants and while the majority of people in Northern Africa are Arab there are still black people and some Indians in many of the countries you spoke of

The only difference is that African-American typically refers to the descendants of slaves, whose ethnic and cultural identities were forcibly subsumed/suppressed.

Just like with literally everything that can be considered a model. There's no point in here, unless stating the obvious is your point.

If you watch any american TV or movies you would've seen this asian model minority stereotype hundreds of times. Of course none of the characters are going to say "Wow Peni Parker is such a model minority, she's asian and she's SMART" The model minority stereotype exists and I've heard it countless times growing up in america.

​@@andregon4366 the obvious is the point. Model minority implies that non asians in America are not performing well because they aren't doing it correctly, that they brought it upon themselves, because they should follow the Asian american's leads This is the kind of racial manipulation that has allowed our white dominated government to continuously and systematically oppress non asian minorities. A single non-white race is not and CAN NOT be the model for which all non whites in america should follow, that is literal nonsense.

You'd think he would have found that in his "research"

To be clear, both programs were intrinsically racist. Clever racist organizations don't reveal their blind hatred for everyone, but instead apply different standards to different races as a disguise. This is a tactic designed to keep the victims of racism, and their allies, fighting amongst themselves instead of effectively uniting against the injustices.

The Italians were promoted and given responsibilities during WW2 to act as security. Germans were taken in under America and offered high positions in anthropology, the sciences, and weapons manufacturing. Germans and Italians run the US ARMY to this very day according to Kay Griggs. The Japanese were just camped. Explain that.

@@OverthereLook The statement wasn't about that, it was about the fact that the camps existed and that not many people acknowledge them. I don't know much about the Italians, but as far as I'm aware the Germans who the US gave high positions to were actually from Germany. The people I'm referring to are Americans of German heritage, who didn't get that treatment. It's not about who had it worst before and after, or to minimize anything, it's just to acknowledge multiple groups were interred and that no one should be forgotten.

@@dallasworth8158 But I have a strong suspicion that you brought it up as a way to divert the accusation of racism, by indirectly telling people that the Japanese camps are not due to racism. Sort of discrediting people for calling old America's actions out. These camps were nowhere near as grand or messed up as the Japanese camps, Native conversion camps, or any other race based political imprisonment that went on in this country. The Italians had it pretty good in comparison to others. So did the Irish, despite being put into "projects" which is another form of better internment camps later given to my people (black). I guess my core message is dishonestly diverting attention won't help us solve this nation's biggest domestic issue. Part of solving a problem is by admitting that we have one.

This comment should have more likes, but it doesn't support the nitpicky comments, so they won't like it :/

This entier show is about nitpicking common believes

White as a monolith, in America, was a construction by white people, which benefits them. Yes, there is a great diversity within white cultures, but by calling someone or a group of people "white," we are not disparaging that diversity in the same way that Asian and black people are grouped together by outsiders. Being able to call yourself white in American society did and does give you a lot of social capital, and failing to meet the ethnic, cultural, and phenotypic requirements has historically done harm. For the longest time, white Americans did not need to pace any modifier to their American identity, but the Chinese-Americans of the Mississippi Delta are still considered foreign due entirely to their appearance.

@@WCOBDisorder Thats an excelent comment and you are right in that there is and underlying reason for which its unfair to compare the generalization of white people and asian people. Since both have completely different constructions and historical purposes. But i think the logical contradiction still stands and its worth a mention by them or by us. So i mentioned it so that we can move forward away from it haha.

They offer a citation for the fact that German American people weren't treated poorly because they were white . the citation indicates that the establishment recognized whiteness and then used it to exalt people from conditions that were put upon Japanese Americans. The video Then goes on to point out how such generalizations ridiculous. Can you not see the difference between one being a citation of historical precedent and the other being the show stating its position on such? They are not the same

I knew that felt off. Thanks for that.

I thought the series was pretty good at first but its progressive agenda is starting to show

Yes it does, I just read it. Near the start it says "on aggregate, Asian and Pacific Islander Americans (APIA) are indeed the best-educated, highest-income, lowest-crime racial group in America." However, it goes on to say "significantly more APIAs live in poverty than the US average." It cites a source for it as well. Assuming this report is true, that means that APIAs have the best and worst situations.

The series actually does falter pretty regularly in regard to stuff like this because they don't care enough about nuance. As you said, it's mainly certain groups that have higher poverty rates, and even then, it can vary by city/region. For average income, household income is certainly higher for asians, but asians also tend to have larger households. Moreover, while asian men make more than white men, they also tend to have higher education levels. On average, they will make less than white man when controlling for those kinds of factors. Main problem is that nobody ever parses out huge difference in the dozens of ethnicities that comprise being Asian. And since there are so many immigrants, how does english proficiency affect stuff like the income differences above?

It might be an oversimplification of one of the article's points, but the authors do argue broadly that "Significantly more APIAs live in poverty than the US average". It's an argument of nuance... If you want to say broadly that APIAs on average are better educated and attain higher wages, you also have to include those "certain nationality groups" which also means that the APIA population as a whole as a higher number of persons in poverty than the national average too. At best, I'd say its a poor generalization of very nuanced argument, but I'd say deliberate lying is a bit of a stretch. It's not like the program is saying APIAs with higher income is a myth. The article's wording itself at least lends the reader to make similar conclusions

I don't like being generalized as white either. Everyone assumes that we all had slaves when many of us had ancestors who immigrated here long after slavery was "abolished" in America and were sometimes even treated like a scourge. My mother's side was Scotch-Irish, and my father's side was Ukrainian. If you despised the British Imperialism... they used the Irish as a practice round before they honed their craft. They attempted to destroy the culture and kill the language and they even taxed the air. Many Irish were sent to the Americas as prisoners by Cromwell and were conscripted as indentured servants... they were usually bonded for a few years, but depending on the work they didn't usually live to make it out of the forced contract... it gets interchangeably referred to as slavery but it is not exactly the same as what was done to the Africans because eventually if they survived they would be free. This was before the Great Potato Famine of course. My Mother's ancestors who immigrated to America were carpetbaggers just trying to survive and maybe make enough money to marry the woman they wanted to marry. As for my father's side, they fled to escape Communist rule and were lucky enough to leave before the great hunger of the 1930s... it was a forced famine created by Stalin and it killed millions. It was referred to as Holodomor. I have no idea if there are any surviving family from the old country or if they perished. While some traditions were kept, much was lost because during the 30s, 40s, and 50s, having a culture different from the accepted Christian European culture usually made things difficult for immigrants if they didn't seem pure enough. This is why I can't speak Ukrainian at all and it is why my grandmother insisted that we were all 100% Ukrainian and all of my ancestors were Eastern Orthodox Christians (pretty sure this is impossible statistically and I have a sneaking suspicion that we might have had Jewish ancestors as well). The word slave also originates from the word "Slav." Slavic people were the one of the first groups to be enslaved by the ancient Romans... before that slaves were typically just called servants. I am not saying this to negate the oppression that black people go through in our country but rather, to share my takeaway from all of this. Here is my takeaway: because oppression and conquest often involve rape, it is likely that while I have that Irish and Ukrainian heritage, there is likely also the DNA of the English and the Ancient Roman's as well... essentially the blood of oppressed and oppressor flows within me, and somewhere in everyone's history they likely share the same painful history of power struggles. My point is that it is easy for the oppressed to become the oppressor and vice versa and it then becomes a matter whether or not we think we have to keep choosing those options or decide to break the cycle by just taking the time to love and respect ourselves and each other in healthy ways. I feel like lack of love for self creates oppressors and then the pain is projected upon others. So many try to fix others but don't take the time to heal their own bullshit and as a result, the vicious cycle continues through humanity. We as people often try to take power from others to feel better about ourselves in everyday life as individuals, why would that not happen among all peoples over centuries and millennia? I just happen to look like the oppressor right now, but I am just me. I am no more a caricature than you are. I wish that that is what people saw too instead of the generalized image of being a white person in America. These labels are destructive for everyone, and you are not alone in the feeling of being boxed by generalizations. ❤

There Adam goes again putting false information in his program 😄

Jinjitsu points are awarded to Grant for using Um actually.

They didn't know this because nobody bothered to type "German Italian WW2 internment USA". Why search it when the writers were already convinced it didn't happen?

Crystal City held Germans deported from Latin America ( mostly jewish German refugees) these weren’t German Americans, like some people assume.

It was also primarily Japanese that were put into the internment camps because Japan was much more likely to invade the United States. Japan had already attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor whereas Germany and Italy were unlikely to invade the United States as they were still dealing with Great Britain and the Soviet Union. The United States didn't want Japanese-Americans to help Japan invade the United States through espionage or sabotage. This is why Japanese-Americans living near the West Coast were interned while Japanese-Americans in other parts of the US were for the most part left alone. Americans of German and Italian origin were seen as less of a threat as there was no concern that the United States would be invaded by Germany or Italy. So, in conclusion, the fact that they were treated better than Japanese-Americans wasn't because they were white.

He also left out the fact that Japan was a much more direct threat to the USA and Germany didn't bomb pearl harbor. There was alot left out

Not only that but in WW1 Their homes churches and schools were all raided drurring the Germaphobia era... Durring that time they were very discriminated against..

Uhhh thats becsuse the U.S. changed its terminology to encompass these under the same umbrella to maintain a white majority that could relate to one another over their whiteness. It was done for solidarity and to create a division between who is and isn't considered white.

This is talking about America and Americans. Generally if you are Caucasian and American and you are beyond 2nd or 3rd generation caucasian, you just colloquially called "White". The same isn't true for alot asian americans, because generally speaking, they homogeneous in their ethnic makeup. So it would be accurate if a kid's mother, father, and grandparents are all Korean and he is 1st generation american, to be called "Korean" or at least Korean-American. That term would make less sense is his family was a mixture of Asian and Caucausian or Asian sub-Saharan African. The same could be argued to someone of European origin. But there just aren't alot of Caucasian/European immigrants newly coming to America anymore, for a variety of economic reasons. That's why 2nd/3rd/4th generation caucasian immigrants don't refer to themselves as "Italian" or "German", because they aren't culturally really those anymore, even if by some miracle, they, their parents, their grandparents, and their great grandparents are all from the same country. They are so culturally removed from that country and so a part of america culture. The cultural shorthand for a Caucasian immigrant in America is "White".

TBH we should do more lumping, and call all of us Americans.

@@monosynthluv no, your excuse doesn't even justify that it is 'different' its the exact same situation, even if they're beyond 2nd or 3rd generation they're still having their ancestry and they hear it from their parents too and this doesn't even make it more 'justifiable' than those , say , from asia or africa do i have to remind you many blacks are already beyond 2nd and 3rd generation too? many of them trace their ancestry back in slavery days also, lets quit the hypocrisy, tell me.. if you're an indian in india, what do you call western whites? no, it doesn't even have to be the immigrants (if there's any) to india that have settle for few generations. Mostly you see them as tourist that just came there for vacation, so now this is a very 'fresh' white by your logic no? not 2nd or 3rd generation settler in any way. Now what do you call them if you're an indian living in india? im south east asian chinese, i call them back in my previous nation in indonesia as 'bule' (its a local term to describe whites, including not just europe and US ones but also australians or even afrikaners in south africa we'll call them all 'bule' mostly the same goes to you mr hypocrite.. quit making problems out of thin air

@@kenishinobi666 and you too

thanks i'm dead

Actually if I did that I would get alcohol poisoning

Then don't click on any of CollegeHumor's "Umm, Actually" vids. Unsponsored plug!

But they won’t say that because it ruins Adam’s narrative.

But hardly anyone knows about it b/c it's not taught in schools

@@tinsote7176 No, it wouldn't cause the number of Japanese people that were interned was about 10 times as the number of Germans interned and the German population in America was significantly larger than the Japanese population meaning internment had a way bigger impact on Japanese Americans than it did on German Americans.

Actually oxygen is poisonous and having only oxygen in the air would actually drown humans in minutes. Oh and is so flammable that fire would more explosive. Hey maybe I could do this myself.

What kind of oxygen? O, O2 or O3 because pure poison would reakt with most things right away, deadly in to high conzentrations, poison and is litterly ozone but therefore good when high up in the atmosphere to block UV rays.

@@suprafluid3661 I mean O2

Oxygen just kills you really slowly

@@suprafluid3661 The term "oxygen" refers to dioxygen. Ozone is also extremely reactive and toxic. 50ppm will kill a human in 30 minutes.

And " watch the hair"

That’s not why I clicked in, but I did notice he looked like Travis Scott

He does look like them, he just had the same hair style lol

Yeah

That's Randy from The Wire.

*SICKO MODE CAMEO* *SICKO MODE CAMEO*

I laugh a lot when asian (specifically Chinese, korean and japanese) success is downplayed and made ambiguous just to fit a certain narrative. They just do better because they want to and have the right priorities in the right places, and that this is the go-to plan of the vast majority. I really hate this mentality that all roads lead to the same destination and that if some didn't make it, its because the others cheated. That is the concept of victim mentality for me

I.... I don't even know how to respond...

@Hervis Daubeny Was it the gene, the anime or both ? ^^ It IS true that "smart gene" are a lot more debatable than one regarding size or strength. (wich is why I choose not to take this possibility in account) As for anime, peoples underestimate the impact of tv on the way children integrate society values and how it influence their development. If a kid is being told all his life that the most admirable trait is perseverance and hard work, it will affect him one way or another. (he might reject it and do the opposite too) Of course, I'm referring to Japanese peoples born and raised in japan. Those born and raised in USA, while getting some of their moral compass affected by their parent's upbringing, (depending on how much time they can devote to it) will also be affected by USA schools, children, tv and society in general. At this point the result will be pretty similar to a child of a different ethnicity raised in a similar neighborhood.

@@youngveggies6558 Star with a Point Godwin, it usually works. ^^

@@kenim Note that I was referring to Japanese born and raised in Japan, witch doesn't determine anything on a person basis since they are all taught the same thing, more or less. If a Japanese man is successful in Japan, it's not because he's Japanese, he was just smarter, luckier or more hard working than his opponents. The way the country is affected is where the difference will be. The cultural difference of an asian born an raised in america will be quite different. I like to believe that hard work, no matter where you are from, usually pay in the end.

I think that has a part in it too. A lot of asian cultures put a lot more pressure in excelling academically and shit. Quite a few east asian countries have higher suicide rates in students because of the effects of overworking and sleep deprivation on mental health, as well as the pressure and stress of having to succeed. I have quite a few asian friends who won't accept anything less than an A in almost everything at school (which kinda sucks for me since our school uses bellcurve marking lol, and I'm asian too. My family isn't *as* pressuring as my aforementioned friends' families, but they certainly do hold me to quite a high standard)

​@Viper 47 I mean maybe not "dishonouring", per say, but there definitely is a lot of pressure to not disappoint your family's high standards - at least from my own experience and that of most of my other asian friends - especially those who came over from their respective countries later on.

@Viper 47 I would be hesitant to rule out the role of collectivism, it could be argued that such values are reinforced by the very real demands of how their societies are structured. A family may put pressure on their child with the hope they will succeed in such a competitive environment, therefore the individual may be imbued with a fear they aren't good enough both for society and their family. I also wouldn't say the majority of a population need to commit suicide before you get concerned. Japan and particularly south Korea are very high, particularly if you exclude various 3rd world countries. I'm surprised china isn't that high anymore but maybe Xi fiddles it.

As a Korean-American; my experience with the "Model Minority" stereotype is... well, just like all stereotypes, it's rooted in some interpretation of reality. Frankly even if it started off as a propaganda claim by the US gov't, it's one that they got coincidentally right, because it's still the truth that Asians (South, East, or otherwise) make way more money than Whites, have a higher education rate than Whites, have higher SAT, etc, scores than Whites, etc... That said, I don't like the stereotype because-among other things-it then implies that other nonasian minorities AREN'T "model", and that undoubtedly has all kinds of self-image issues for them. I mean, imagine being told by smart professional-types that, well, you're not Asian, so you're a more worthless minority. Gee, thanks.

I thought it was because of average is differences higher academic accomplishments on average and lower criminal activity. I mean they say it's a myth but I don't get how.

Getting the joke is super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Shinnogo oh really?

@@Swaglordfawful Yeah yeah yeah.

Shinnogo oh my lord...

@@Swaglordfawful Well okay then.
