Latino kids have cultural issues as many are stigmatized for acting white. Asians have bad kids but they are not celebrated except in bad Mickey Rourke films. Finally there is distance. NYC to the New Delhi, Seoul or Shanghaiis an obstacle compared to NYC to the DR or Cartegena. Distance makes the country of origin into the old country not my country.

This is not very clear. Could you rewrite this part more clearly? I never heard of Mickey Rourke.

lRourke is an actor of big ego and modest talent. Made his bones in the Pope of Greenwich Village. A couple of years later he played a cop bent on cleaning up NYC’s Chinatown. Chinese kids were shown as dealers hookers and murderers. They were portrayed like Coppola portrayed the mafia, like being bad was cool.
