[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]]OP here- wow, lots of responses. I don't think my question came from a racist place... but I have noticed a trend and I have been curious! [/quote] I agree its interesting and I don't think the question is racist at all. I would also point out that I've always been interested why so many dry cleaners are run by Korean Americans and why so many taxi cab drivers are Ethiopian American and why so many Indian restaurants are actually run by Bangladeshi Americans. I don't think it's racist to be interested in these patterns... Now some of the [i]explanations[/i] offered in this thread do strike me as racist. To attribute inferior characteristics to a group because of the historical pattern is racism, because it's suggesting something is intrinsic about a group of people, not that history/circumstance/power structures created a certain context of opportunity and training.[/quote]
