Contrary to popular belief, being a \u201cmodel minority\u201d is NOT a compliment. If you think Asians are inherently better at math, rich, or don\u2019t suffer from the same inequality that plagues other racial groups; you're playing into the hands of the stereotype. This week, my friend Steffi (@inn_mho) joins me to debunk the model minority stereotype/myth. Why is this characterization dangerous? What makes someone Asian enough? How does assimilation affect our culture? \n\nIn the News: ABC announces the first \nBlack bachelor. Is it too little too late? \nWe also issue a wellness check for Britney Spears.
