Asian Americans: Arthur Hu's Index of Diversity

Jump to Contents (c) Arthur Hu 1984-2020, please cite when using data from here on how to get more complete data or complete text of these references

Some people collect stuff, this is my 15 plus years collection of racial statistics, organized around statistics for Asian Americans. Most racial statistics are given for blacks, maybe hispanics, but very few for Asians. Asians are unusual in that they have both the characteristics of disadvantaged minorities, like the African Americans, and over-achieving minorities such as the Jews and Episcopalians.

What is remarkable is that, contrary to the popular thesis that Whites are always on top, and persons of color are always on the bottom because of racism, more often than not, Asians have lower rates of most headline problems. You'll almost never see them documented because of the unwritten rule that Whites must end up best and Blacks, worst. If you wander around, you'll also find evidence of when even the lower income, lower education Hispanics are better (AIDS rates, infant mortality, life expectancy) and even the few places where Blacks are better. I rank them, and figure out a conclusion instead of starting out with the conclusion and ommitting data that doesn't support it.

Asians have higher household incomes are healthier, get better grades and test scores, go to the best colleges at the highest rates in the most rewarding and difficult fields commit fewer crimes, and have more solid families in terms of structure than the whites, even though they may have a higher rate of poverty or live in poor neighborhoods. This makes the Asian Americans a potent weapon in the fight against classic liberal racial-marxism, the idea that all outcomes can be explained in terms of income and discrimination.

By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF KISANGANI, Congo -- One of the great paradoxes
of Africa is that its people are for the most part desperately poor
while its land is extraordinarily rich. East Asia is the opposite: a
region mostly poor in resources that over the last few decades has
enjoyed the greatest economic boom in human history.

they are a far smaller proportion of SBA participants than their
share of the minority population] from 1990 through 1995, Denver-area
black businesses averaged only 8 percent of 8(a) contract dollars.
That compares with 65 percent for Hispanic businesses, 17 percent for
Native American businesses and 9.43 percent for Asian-owned
businesses.

Less than 1% of disadvantaged businesses certified by the SBA are

Hsü's Retirement Lecture, Delivered June 24, 1994, in Zurich
Why was it so difficult for a person of Chinese origin to accept
a revolutionary idea?
Yes, one can invent paper,... technological innovations, done...  not
concerned about the philosophical truth. The philosophers were,
however, not able to be inventive; they could not rebel against
Confucius. That Isaac Newton was not a Chinese is thus not an
idiosyncrasy in history, but an inevitability.

Also see intelligence and evolution Phillipe Rushton of Canada has this
controversial theory that the reason that Asians are smarter than
Whites than Blacks is because they are higher up on the evolutionary
scale and they appeared last. Also has wierd theories that size of
sexual organs is inversely proportional to health, skull size and
intelligence. This is widely regarded as racist, but an interesting
correlation if nothing else since nearly all the data on this page
indicates that Asians tend me be better in almost every point of
comparison where blacks are worse, and worse where blacks are better.
His explanations are odd, but if correlation isn't neccesarily
causation, the patterns are worth noting because his data appears to
be correct.

Chinese garden farms in US

The Chinese were very active in farming in the US.  Begin with
Sucheng Chan's Bittersweet Soil.  Almost every large Chinese
community had some sort of "vegetable/fruit" garden.  Many Chinese
"farmers" still have farms in California's Central Valley and grow a
variety of products.  One of my family's close friends, a
third-generation farmer near Walnut Grove (in the vicinity of Locke),
just sent me a new variety of garlic he's working on.  The Asian
pears and grapefruits can also be found in California.  In Nevada,
Virginia City, Carson City, Tuscarora, and other towns with a Chinese
population in the late 19th century have many stories about their
"vegetable and fruit peddlers" and "Chinese gardens."  Carson City's
Chinese farmers even built their own Chinese style water wheel to
irrigate the "gardens."  Sue Fawn Chung UNLV History Department

as the staple. Marco Polo brought noodles to the west, where most
pasta dishes now comes from Italy. The Japanese have Ramen and
yakisoba. The Chinese have chow mein, and broad low mein noodles. The
Vietnamese have Pho, which is beef broth with thin noodles and
various parts of beef.

Emergence Chronice of Higher Education, 1.12.7 By ROGER DANIELS
Although Asian Americans have played a significant role in American
life for more than a century,serious academic interest in their
history is a relatively recent phenomenon.  The first generations of
professional American historians either ignored them or demeaned
them. After Asians were almost totally barred from immigrating to the
United States in 1924, successor academic generations began to pay
more attention, but they treated Asian Americans as victims of mob
violence, unjust federal immigration statutes, and state laws and
municipal ordinances limiting such choices as occupation and
residence.

Between 1970 and 1990, native born whites declined from 57% to barely 26%
of the workers in the industry, a huge drop, while native born blacks
declined from 10% to 7%, and immigrant Latinos jumped from 12% to 43%.  If
anyone was being displaced, it would be native whites, right?  I don't know
the industry well, but I would guess that most of that was replacement, as
in ethnic succession, not displacement.

This is typical of immigrant-dominated industries in the Los Angeles area.
If you pick the top 10 industries by percent immigrant in 1990, in nine of
them immigrants were over-represented in 1970, and none of them had an
above-average percentage of black workers in 1970.

Is it still awkward to hug people in Japan?
June 16, 2009 
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

Yes, people here do not hug. No Carl it is not because they are
conservative, it is because in Japanese culture such displays of
emotion are frowned upon. You say 'still' as if it is something that
is bound to change, that hugging is somehow better, but this is not
necessarily the case. 
Not even all Westerners like to hug

anon e-mail observation 2011: about 15 or so years ago, my wife and I
noticed something that has not been remarked upon here in Japan.
Japanese (not married couples) have started to hug each other.
Previously, it was unthinkable. But somehow, perhaps through the
gateway of show biz people who were imitating their Hollywood idols, a
small group of Japanese started hugging each other to show mainly a
feeling of congratulations. This seemed to spread to sports people.
Then we noticed that ordinary citizens were starting to do it, and not
just young people. Older people, who had never hugged or even seen a
person hug in their younger years, started doing it

@@Jewish, comparisons


Asians compared to Jews - 
see chart on over-representation page

Asians have been compared with the Jews as the new overachieving
group, but it appears that only the top Asian ethnic groups are
really comparable, the Japanese, Indians, and Chinese. 


Another group with a 50% college rate, high IQ, and 2-3% population
are the gays, but both Jews and Gays are very liberal and vote at
rates approaching unity, wheras Asians tend to be a bit more
conservative than the general population, and vote at very low rates.
Asians are highly represented as engineers and doctors, as are Jews,
but only at parity among new law students, and far below parity in
the law profession.


It is very difficult to find numbers of Jews. One reason is that Jews
have successfully lobbied NOT to be included in US Census breakouts,
however there are private surveys, the SAT, which records religion
data, and it is often possible to pick out likely jewish persons by
surname in awards lists.


Jews generally score higher than Asians, but the advantage is smaller
or disappears if compared against Chinese or Indians broken out
separately. Jews are proportionally stronger than the Japanese in he
Westinghouse Talent Search, but less than the Chinese and Indians.


Where the big differences are that Asians vote at the lowest, Jews
the highest rates, and Asians are among the most conservative, but
Jews the most liberal. In IQ, Jews are higher than Asians overall,
but not so far ahead of the Chinese or Indians. 


In the Ivy League, one survey would put Asians behind, but the
Chinese ahead of Jews. When broken down by religion, no group scores
higher than the Jews in combined SAT, except Hindu Asians, mostly
Indian, who scored about the same. Asians overall scored slightly
ahead of whites, and are hurt by relatively poor verbal scores.





"you will never, ever match us
European Jews in IQ or power" Montoya challenges Asian claims to
high performance compared to Europeans.
IQs of over 130 are 7 times more likely to be found in European
populations than in East Asian populations.  China has a lower GNP
per capita than Morocco, and accounts for only 2% of Noble Prize
winners. China accounts for less than 6% of the world's GNP, and only
1/2 of its population are literate.  China has 1 billionare, Japan
has 23, the USA has 276.  Europe and North America are the only
places on Earth were % of global GNP exceeds % of world population.

found that different ethnic groups score differently. (Formula =
frequency of surnames in reference works divided by frequency of
surnames from social security lists.) A coefficient of 200 means that

achievement of various ethnic groups. It shows that Asians and Jews are groups 
that achieve the most in high school. The following percentages correspond to 
those who achieve over 70% in both English and in Math at the advanced level. (The 
Ontario system streamlines students into three groups: basic, where students are 
up to 2 years behind when there are in grade 8; general, where students do not 
expect to go to university; and advanced, where most students intend to have some 
college or university education. The following data are collected for the advanced

by Steve Sailer Published in
National Review, 8/12/96 In the job market, if you are equal, you are
just a commodity. How to succeed in business?  Find some niche where
your talents and connections aren't merely mediocre but potentially
superior, sweat to fortify these competitive advantages, then
monopolize the hell out of them. Immigrant groups thrive because they
understand acutely the advantages of specialization (e.g., Asian
Indians, the most successful of the recent arrivals, manage about
half of America's motels). In the sports market, where affirmative
action hardly exists, blacks grasp this logic equally well. Blacks
don't comprise 12.4% of NBA players, 12.4% of synchronized swimmers,
12.4% of monster truck drivers, etc.  Instead, blacks concentrate
overwhelmingly on games where they are most apt to possess natural
edges. In turn, this narrow focus grants them sizable cultural
advantages: growing up amidst a critical mass of players, coaches,
and aficionados, black youths can conveniently absorb the needed
expertise.  By dismissing sports as mere feats of brawn unworthy of
intelligent inquiry, liberal intellectuals ironically overlook that
black sports success reflects not just physical but, as we shall see,
mental superiorities -- Assets that blacks could exploit in other
careers, too

National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy found that of $180m in
grants that top 124 American corporations awarded to minorities last
year, only $4.9 million when to Asian Pacific Americans, of 72,510
grants, 404 went to APA, 65.8% worth lesss than $10,000.

Council on Foundations found APAs make "just" 3.7 percent of
foundation managerial staff (that's parity!), and 3.5 percent of
foundation employees.

Only 1.3% of foundation board members were APA, "not sufficient to
represent and articulate the interests of the APA community"

Asian Pacific American Community Fund, Mabel Teng SF Supervisor found
on average, APA nonprofits receive about one-third les money from
private and government sources than groups that serve other ethnic
communities, and community organizations only get 5 cents for every
dollar spent by the City and County of San Francisco.

the Foundation Center found that of 133 foundations awarding grants
in 1996, only 8 had interest in Asian Pacific Americans.

Times Poll: Majority of respondents say post-riot despair has faded.
But two-thirds believe that race relations remain poor.  By JEAN
MERL, Times Staff Writer Special Report: Five Years Later 

Interesting points - In a LA times on the 1992 riots, on almost every
issue Asians were the opposite of blacks, being even more
conservative than whites on every issue except agreement with the
1992 verdict. Asians ranked nearly as high as whites in perception of
unfair economic power, even though whites greatly outnumber Asians,
and own nearly all of the largest businesses, but are correctly
perceived as politically weak. On the other hand, Hispanics were
perceived as very powerful even though Blacks have more voting power
and better representation among government officials.

Asians 81% were most, blacks 64% least satisfied with
their communities.  Latino 76% White 73%
                    								 								 								 				  
Asians 40% were least, blacks 75% most likely to say economic 
opportunity was not good 41% whites, 65% latinos

Asians were 2nd most likely to object to 1992 King beating verdict 72%
white 65%, Latino 69% Black 83%, but..

Asians least likeley 38% vs. 74% black that verdict was based on
prejudice, white 49%, 62% Latino

Asians 72% most, Blacks 55% least likely to say that rioting didn't
disrupt their lives, white 60% Latino 67%

Most believed whites and Asians had the most economic power, with
very close point spread between whites and Asians despite the fact
that whites have much, much more economic clout than the far less
numerous Asians, with political clout going to whites and Latinos,
despite the fact that per-capita, blacks have much more
representation and voting power than the latinos.

Most believed Asians and Latinos were the hardest working, except for
blacks, who placed themselves 2nd after Latinos.

Asians least 37%, Blacks 75% most likely to say LAPD brutality and is
common, whites 38% Latino 61%, similar for racism within the department

them are poor, according to a new study headed by Dr. Morton Beiser,
director of the Centre of Excellence for Research on Immigration and
Settlement [CERIS] at Toronto's three universities.  They also
``consistently outperform native-born children in school and are more
likely to be class valedictorians,'' says the study, based on a
Statistics Canada survey of 23,000 children, their parents, teachers
and principals.  The study found that almost a third of immigrant
children live below StatsCan's low-income cut-off, compared to only
13.2 per cent of Canadian-born children.  Fifty-nine per cent of the
Canadian-born families in poverty are led by a single parent,
compared to a third of immigrant ones.

    Yahoo Filipino search

The Filipinos are nearly the largest Asian American ethnic group, and
may soon beat the Chinese for #1.  Though often considered to be
disadvantaged, this is often only by comparision with the Chinese and
Japanese as their drop out rates and college education rates are
often as good or better than whites.  Before 1990, most UC campuses
included Filipinos under racial preferences, but many campuses
dropped this policy after being informed that Filipinos had never
been under-represented. After 1993, Filipinos at Berkeley had the
LOWEST admission rates, indicating affirmative action may have moved
to discriminate against this group largely because they could and did
get away with it, where the Chinese and Japanese had forced a
showdown and won in the 80s. 

Their political power is nowhere near proportional to the clout of
the less numerous Japanese or equally numerous Chinese Americans.
Racially, they are mostly Asian, but there is some mixing with the
Spanish and Americans who have owned the islands before in history.

LOS ANGELES -- Two pictures hanging in the lobby of Martin Luther King Jr. 
Medical Center offer silent testimony to a view shared by many blacks here 
that the hospital was built by and for African Americans. [and not for
Asians or Latinos]

A poll by the National Conference, a nonprofit organization that
promotes racial dialogue did a national survey that found that
minorities often harbored even harsher views of one another than whites.

Asians are "unscrupulous, crafty and devious in business." 
50% Latino
40% African American
25% White

Latinos tend to 
"have bigger families than they are able to support."
70% Asian
50% African Am White

Latinos are almost three times as likely as whites to believe that
blacks "aren't capable of getting ahead" even if given the
opportunity, the poll found.

Blacks still control the mayor's office, the city council, all but
one school board seat and four out of five municipal jobs in Compton,
even though the population is now mostly Latino, who question why
they don't have a share of jobs or power. black leadership. Nearly
two-thirds of the city's 29,000 public school students are Latino but
less than 10 percent of its teaching staff is.

Emory University psychologist Eric Vanman and other scientists, who
contend in a new study that "electromyography,'' or EMG, can detect
tiny muscle movements in the face. Results on people who claimed to
not be prejudiced show in the Journal of Personality and Social
Psychology:

The results: 
55 percent of whites were prejudiced against blacks. 
60 percent of blacks were prejudiced against whites. 
65 percent of Asian-Americans were prejudiced against blacks. 
67 percent of Hispanics were prejudiced against blacks. 

Uncovering the Face of Prejudice April 1, 1998 -- We might as well
face it. Racial prejudices run so deep that they infect even many
people who think they're totally free of bias.  [comment - doesn't
seem much of a way to prove these signals actually show bias, also
shows WHITES are the least biased group, rather than the most biased]

    @@Superiority
    

The politically correct explanation is that there is no such thing as
racial, cultural or any kind of superiority. All races and cultures
are equal, anything to the contrary is due to social injustice. But
how can you be "disadvantaged" if you're equal? The concept of
"disadvantaged" requires that you acknowledge that somebody is
"superior" whether or not they got there fair and square. The real
question is how and why the winners and losers got that way.
    

Another interesting issue is that while racists generally believe the
white race is superior, and anti-racists all agree that whites are at
the top of the oppression food-chain, race-scientists tend to peg
Asians and Jews as the most developed with respect to restraint and
IQ.
    

Yet another good point is that if Asians are so much smarter and
healthier than everybody else, why is it everybody complains about
white superiority, while even Asians complain about "discrimination"?

About Time
Time and the Melting Pot
by John Robinson, Bart Landry, and Ronica Rooks

African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and non-Hispanic whites each
have different ways of spending time. For example, blacks spend the
most time on religious activities, whites spend the most time on
housework, and Asians spend the most time on education. (At 3 times
higher than whites, do you suppose that has anything to do with Asian
superiority in test scores??)

At MIT, when the ration of M/F for whites was 2:1, it was more like
1.5 to 1 for Asians. When the ratio was reduced to 1.5 to 1 for
whites, there were actually more Asian women than men! Asian and
Jewish women are NOT under-represented relative to their population
at MIT, so why even give them preference? This would be a justifiable
case of favoring non-jewish whites over Asians and Jews since white
women are under-represented.

    P. Hausman says data shows smaller
M/F gap for Asians.


ASIAN M/F BRAIN DIFFERENCES REFLECT CLOSER MATH ABILITY
From: Ralph L Holloway 
Our preliminary analysis of sex differences in the corpus callosum of an
Asian sample is indicating no significant sex dimorphism in relative CC
size, or splenial size. This is coherant with these observations regarding
much less sex dimorphism re math abilities.

To: phausman@digizen.net You are probably familiar with the Study of
Mathematically Precocious Youth started by Julian Stanley at Johns
Hopkins. From their talent searches, they originally com- puted that
in the 99th percentile, the m/f ratio is 13:1.  They later reported
that when the top percentile is examined by ethnicity, the m/f ratio
is not nearly as dramatic among Asians.  Their figures are 4:1 in
favor of males for the most talented Asians.  



%%TV

Asians overall are the least represented along with Hispanics.
 Blacks are over-represented. However among female roles, 
Asians are only slightly under-represented, and about the
 same as African Americans,which reflects the preference
 in American culture for Asian females and black males.
