Week 2

After I read Why Ferguson Matters to Asian Americans, I can read the angry between the lines. Soya Jung used her own words to tell all the people her feels about the murder of Mike Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson happened in Missouri in August 2014. Through this “accident”, she stated that Asian-Americans are isolated by the American society which is created by Whites.

It makes me think a lot. We all know that the Civil War give the freedom of Black people. In additional, the impact of the Civil War is still effect the society. Right now, Obama have become the first black president in American History, which means African-American has joined into the society. However, this society did not have the space for Asian-American. They are more likely an Individual group in American. Also they have to face the discrimination from the white.

Question: Why can’t Asian-American join into the society? Even worth, Do we need another civil war to eliminate barriers?
