[quote=Anonymous]This piece in New York Magazine was rather interesting on this topic. I actually gave it to a HR person in my office that is white because I thought he had the same flat emotive response and it has created a lot of problems for the people he supervises. I also have thought about the comment in the article about how flat Obama can be emotionally as probably a good insight. Paper Tigers What happens to all the Asian-American overachievers when the test-taking ends? Sometimes I’ll glimpse my reflection in a window and feel astonished by what I see. Jet-black hair. Slanted eyes. A pancake-flat surface of yellow-and-green-toned skin. An expression that is nearly reptilian in its impassivity. I’ve contrived to think of this face as the equal in beauty to any other. But what I feel in these moments is its strangeness to me. It’s my face. I can’t disclaim it.
