model minorities and the model minority myth  

Definición

  • The term model minority is most often associated with Asian Pacific Americans (APAs) and is used to highlight APAs' seemingly successful assimilation into mainstream White American culture. This is often referred to as the “model minority myth,” because APAs' perceived success is frequently used to justify the claim that they do not experience race-based obstacles and do not need affirmative action.
