I don’t know.

An immigration law passed in 1882 is the same as Roosevelt sending Japanese to camps and taking their property?

Republicans rail and rail about improving education and education-fixated Asians don’t notice?

Republicans have been decrying racial selection in jobs and education (which disadvantages Asians) for a long time. And do Asians care when the abuse of H1B visas are clobbering Americans who have held those jobs?

Of course Republicans need to show up but if Asians are all in urban areas there aren’t a vast number of Republicans that are near by.

The article has serious holes, but don’t sell the points short. The Japanese internment for instance. Frankly the major Asian groups in the US, Chinese Vietnamese, Koreans and Filipinos, have little sympathy for the Japanese, in their home countries, and have little or nothing to do with Japanese-Americans. However the stress in the public schools is all about the Japanese internment- WWII as far as school history goes is just that and nothing else. The point made is that the white man is out to get you and will intern/deport you at anytime.
Asians also don’t get Republican news.
Much of the Republican media doesn’t go to these people.
Much is very culturally loaded with stuff that is just foreign. And the article is right in that the location of these populations does not help in terms of media and general social conditioning. If the Chinese were all going to Texas it would be very different.
What would help is some intelligent Chinese language outreach.
Filipinos, Vietnamese and Koreans are much more Republican BTW; the real problems are with Chinese. Japanese and Indians (so far) are too few to matter.
