Hu’s on First Columns | Arthur's Index

Introduction

Hu's on First is a column I did and still do for Asian Week every other week or so on Asian American issues diversity, race, gender, conservatism, and life in general, and it started with editorial comment in the MIT's The Tech. More recently, my writings have appeared in Seattle area newspapers, and the National Review. My emphasis on my political writing and research centers on race, economics and education. My Index of Diversity is a huge repository of news clippings and data on topics of diversity, and other issues that I have used in developing my columns. You may find several ideas that no one else has figured out, as obvious as they might be, as well as jumping on the bandwagon of the ideas of other conservatives, humanists, and libertarians.

I take an "alternative" Asian American view. I don't run away from data that supports the "Model Minority" thesis that makes so many Asian activists angry. I don't think there should be anything wrong in pointing out when one group does better than another as long as we can tell when it is because of discrimination or simply because some groups got lucky or played the game better. In the game of life, it often helps to copy the winners. Asians in the 20th century have had a lot of catching up to do with the winning Europeans, yet the Asians do better in health, education, and a raft of other indicators when other minorities fare worse, even when Asians have a higher poverty rate than whites. Asians do a lot that is worth copying, and avoid doing things that get other groups into trouble. It's not what you are but what you've got in terms of economic and educational capital and what you do with it that counts. Asians emphasize working harder to get better grades and test scores instead of relying on racial preferences to make up for lower grades and scores. My web page also documents the many ethnic groups and statistics where Asians indeed lag the majority population, from health insurance to voting rates.

That puts me somewhere between conservative, libertarian, and a "humanist" that doesn't put ANY racial or social group at the top, or on their hit list. Racists hate black people. Multiculturalists hate white people. Marxists hate rich people. I don't think anybody should hate anybody. Got that? Some of my big issue areas are:

AIDS and Health | Columns Everybody knows that people of "color" have high rates of AIDS and other health problems, but nobody breaks out the Asians, and it's not because there isn't any data. They spend millions on research in AIDS, yet not a penny has been spent to find out why Asians have the lowest rates of AIDS in the US and in the world. Asians also have better health outcomes for almost every other measure, but you'll rarely see this mentioned in the press. Much or most of this comes from cultural conservatism and avoiding dangerous habits.
Affirmative Action Affirmative action isn't based on fairness, but is a movement to get political points simply by raising numbers of people from certain groups, even if it means exclusion, discrimination, or quotas. It claims to be color blind, but then uses discrimination.
Education Everybody knows that African Americans lag in education in terms of grades, dropout, test scores, and expulsion rates, and it's because of poverty and racism. But few note that Asians in those very same school systems routinely score better than whites. Not only that, everybody knows that Asian countries are ahead of the US, but nobody realizes that the gap is just as great for Asian Americans who go to the exact same schools. It's not racism, economics, or segregation, but how hard you study and how well your parents were educated. As a rule, blacks tend to do poorly regardless of income, or how good the school system is, with a few notable exceptions (which you won't hear about because they are based on traditional education, not the politically correct racial politics based strategies), but Asian usually perform as well or better than whites, no matter how bad the system is.
Education Reform / Restructuring The only people who are ahead of average Whites in education are the Asians and the Asian Americans, and rich kids with high IQs. But the new Outcome Based Education model which underlies almost every facet of the national education reform / restructuring movement declares IQ, memorization, and facts to be dead, and turns 180 degrees from what makes Asians and traditionally smart kids so successful, declaring a utopian promise that all students can succeed. How you get the answer is more important get getting the right answer, and in fact, there's no such thing as a right answer. High test scores are bad because they don't measure "higher order thinking", so we need new tests that don't depend on kids who study and memorize a lot. This is the logical extension of the assassination of the "merit" concept in affirmative action to cover everyone in K12. It eliminates tracking between the college and vocational, but really puts everyone on the slower vocational track even though well over 60% of students will go on to some form of college, and emphasizes competent entry level workers instead of the college trained people that run the Intels and Microsofts of the new economy.
Immigration Norman Matloff is the king of critics of skilled (mostly Chinese) immigration. The theory is that immigrants lower wages and kill jobs, but the evidence is that immigrants are more, not less talented on average, make more, not less money, and jobs are being created, not destroyed. High tech pays the highest salaries, and creates the most secondary jobs and wealth of any bachelor level field. On average, the US economy has created 2 jobs for every immigrant for the past 30 years.
Intelligence The Bell Curve is generally right. But we really don't know if the races will never be equal, only that they aren't right now, and they won't be until IQ is equal. On the one hand, evidence shows that blacks perform poorly no matter how rich, or how good the school system is. On the other hand, when blacks work as hard or harder than whites or Asians, they can perform as well or better on basic skills test, in which case, the trick is really to get them to work as hard or harder, and teach the basics. Any notion that IQ tests aren't valid, or that it doesn't matter isn't helping the problem.

Dates may not necessarily correspond to publication dates. One of these days I'll go back and match up actual publication dates, and editing may differ from the final published version of the column. Since September, I've been switched to doing analysis of statistics for Asian Week, but I still write columns for the internet as "Fairness in Diversity for anybody else willing to listen to what's really going on.

What is "Fairness in Diversity?" It means believing in the principle of working towards racial equality, but also recognizing that it doesn't exist yet. Anybody who simply declares that the races are equal, whether in intelligence or any other basic abilities and simply hires in proportion to population or exceeds proportionality without proportional qualifications is simply ignoring individual fairness. Even if the races were genetically equal, they certainly aren't from a economic or educational standpoint. Discrimination is a symptom of inequality, not the underlying cause. When minorities have higher incomes and test scores, discrimination and negative stereotypes will no longer have any basis.

The fact that any attempt to outlaw group preferences and numerical goals is treated as an attack on the soul of affirmative action is proof that affirmative action without quotas and preferences is merely being color blind. These days being color blind is good enough to make you a racist. But it can be justified _if_ everybody agrees we want to give disadvantaged groups a break just because it's fair to try to give a break to people who started from behind. It can't be justified by lying about unequal standards and pretending that that reverse discrimination is the same as hiring "without regard to race" or claiming that the only "merit" that matters is not grades, test scores, or experience, but skin color and the origin of your surname. Affirmative action which is fair:

Does not equal and certainly does not exceed parity with whites unless experience, grades and test scores are equal UCLA and Berkeley admitted minorities equal to and exceeding parity with whites in 1989. The LA fire department hired only 13% white men in 1994. 40% of the University of Washington Law school students are of color in a state that is 85% whites.
Does not exclude hiring of the unprotected. The Supreme Court has ruled against this, the San Jose Mercury hired no whites as interns one year, and the San Jose Fire Department hired only 1 white male in 1992.
Fully discloses and justifies all group preferences, and differences in qualifications. No college on the planet will admit directly to the existence of race or gender preferences, and very few will disclose differences in grades or test scores. Many advocates of affirmative action deny that affirmative action includes quotas and preferences and lowering standards.
Opens up preferences to _all_ under-represented groups. The most under-represented groups on some campuses are southeast Asians and born-again Christian whites, who are _not_ given preferences.
Does not penalize overachievers or favor whites over other minorities, like the 40% limit on Chinese at Lowell High School in San Francisco.

The fact is that affirmative action has no official definition, and that affirmative action includes programs which violate one or more of the principals above. How can you discuss a topic that has no common definition, and where no one will tell you the truth about what they are doing?

Another theme you'll find is the "model minority myth isn't a myth" theme. Sorry folks, but if you look at the statistics, while there are a few notable spots where Asians are hurting (and I've got more of these stats than most people), in general, in nearly every (80%+) statistic where a Black deficit is used to prove that racism is the reason for racial disparity, Asians score nearly as good, or better than Whites with lower rate of everything from AIDS to cancer and dropout, and highest grades and math test scores, and rates in career fields like doctors and engineers. This is probably the best argument to blow up the central assumption of affirmative action, that merely eliminating racial discrimination will bring racial equality. It won't. The people who keep themselves in the best health and the best educated and work the hardest will always come out on top, no matter how fair the system is. All the affirmative action in the world won't stop Asians from getting better math test scores than Whites, or having longer life expectancy, even if it somehow makes Blacks and Whites equal someday. It's still pretty disorganized, but the file I use to keep track of statistics is at Index of Diversity

Seattle Times September 7, 1998 I-200 poses dilemma for Asians by Tom Brune Seattle Times staff reporter [ But it was Arthur Hu, a software developer, who provoked the biggest reaction at times.

Hu also said "diversity should not be the priority" in government decisions. ]

Social scientists question whether immigrants "may" be harmful, but the real statistics are that there are more jobs created than immigrants, the places and professions with the most immigrants have the most jobs and highest wages, and it all hinges on Norm Matloff who is on a racist Jihad against the Chinese, the likes of which hasn't been seen since angry whites nearly drove the Chinese from California 100 years ago.

This page was featured in Michelle Malkin's Seattle Times syndicated column. She's the up and coming Asian (Filipino) woman conservative writer. She just got hired by the Seattle Times, so let's give her a big hand. She's paid to do it in the mainstream, unlike me, but I hope to pass on the stuff I dig up so that she can give it a voice. It will also be featured in the education section of the March 31 New York Times, hopefully, with my picture in it.

4/16/96 sfaids95.txt SF Health Department finally breaks out AIDS rates per population by race, and I was right, Asians are the lowest at only 1/20 the rate of whites in The City. That ought to terrify the Asian AIDS activists.

4/10/96 SJ Merc SF Chron After a long fight, the San Jose Fire Department finally hires the Engler brothers, but claims that race was not used against Whites, or to favor blacks (do you believe that?). The city at least agrees it's stupid to favor blacks and Hispanics when they are over parity. The NAACP and Hispanic civil rights organizations still think there aren't enough black and Hispanic firefighters in a city that is only 4% black.
