Race Still Matters

In the infographic “Race Still Matters”, it debunks the Model Minority Myth. The Model Minority basically says that Asians worked so hard and they got through their struggles via hard work and studying.  The infographic showcases that even though people think that Asian Americans are smarter than average and make up a majority of the college population, that Asian Americans actually don’t have the same resources available to them.   Another fact is that Asians make up a larger population of adults who do not have a high school diploma.  I found this infographic to be interesting because it shows that even though people think that all Asian Americans take on higher education, the statistics show that Asian Americans don’t have as much or even a an advantage over other minorities. 

Why does the Model Minority myth have an impact on higher education?
