[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][b]Let's all be careful and understand that Asians in Asia are different than Asian Americans.  Two completely different people and cohorts.  Don't cherry pick things that happen halfway around the world in a different country and economic system and political system and try to extrapolate it and stereotype Asian Americans here in the U.S.  It's gross and ignorant and bordering racist - the perpetual "othering" of Asian Americans and coloring them as "foreigners".  Asian Americans are Americans.[/b][/quote]

THIS.

All students who got into the magnet schools are AMERICANS.  They got in because of their merit.  No need to look at race because that is stupid way to measure American achievement.  Give a chance to every student, maybe make all eligible students take this mandatory test and see how everyone is doing.   Let's celebrate the fact that 45% of students in this top magnet school are on  FARMS. [/quote]

So they don't allow immigrants into Stuy?[/quote]

Immigrants are AMERICANS.

Not all immigrants are Americans. They can have a green card or not be documented.

So you are saying the only immigrants allowed in Stuy are those with American citizenship?

They actually ask citizenship status before they accept them?[/quote]
