I often hear people who despise foreign Chinese, who do not let the upright Chinese do it, and prefer to go to foreign countries to become second-class citizens. Sympathetic, contemptuous and contemptuous, it became popular about a decade ago, but in the last two years, it seems to have waned. For some netizens who have never been to the United States, they may think that the six million Chinese living in the United States are living in dire straits, and they are submissive, discriminated against, and unable to integrate into mainstream society. In their imagination, Chinese people have to beware of being beaten all the time when they go out, and they have to avoid the ubiquitous ** cases. However, is this really the case?
It is true that discrimination exists in the United States, but it is not a problem unique to the United States, but a phenomenon that exists in more or less any country in the world. Racism, geographical discrimination, gender discrimination, occupational discrimination, discrimination against persons with disabilities, age discrimination, etc., are manifested in many countries. What we need to recognize, however, is that while discrimination exists in American society, it is not as severe as some people think. First of all, we should abandon the notion of occupational discrimination and respect all legitimate occupations. There is no distinction between high and low occupations, but the division of labor is different, and we should look at all kinds of occupations with an equal and inclusive attitude.
In the United States, although you can sarcastically mock the governor and ridicule**, you must not make fun of people with disabilities. They have already suffered physically, and we should not inflict any more mental damage on them. Respect for people with disabilities is the basic moral bottom line of everyone, and we cannot make fun of their defects or imitate their words or behaviors. We should treat them with tolerance and care, so that they can feel the warmth and care of society.
You can ridicule powerful groups and public figures, but be careful not to hurt the vulnerable. In the United States, the recruitment process clearly stipulates that candidates shall not be required to provide non-job-related information in their resumes, such as their ethnicity, place of origin, gender, age, religious beliefs, height and weight, marital status, children's status, and even **. This is to avoid all kinds of discrimination, such as racialism, sexism, ageism, religion, appearance and geography. The population of the United States is very diverse, mainly white, black, Asian, Latino, Indigenous and mixed-race. Although the Asian population is growing, they still face some challenges. To be proud of, Asian-Americans have excelled in income and educational satisfaction while their population has exploded, surpassing the performance of many American locals. Their efforts and achievements are something we should all learn from and respect.
According to a September 19, 2013 issue of People's Daily Online, Asian Americans are the highest-income group, with household incomes 20% higher than those of whites. In addition, according to data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Asian-Americans aged 25 and older earned $1,140 a week in 2018, the highest of any ethnicity. The average annual salary for Asians is $59,280 and $50,180 for whites, so Asians earn at least $9,100 more per year than whites, which is proportionally 1 5 more. According to the news published on the official website of the People's ** Overseas Edition on May 4, 2016, it is claimed that Asian Americans are the highest-income, best-educated, and fastest-growing population in the United States. The Chinese are the most populous group of Asians, accounting for 23% of all Asians, and they are a model group in the United States.
In addition, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor, in 2018, about 54% of the Asian-American employed population in the United States were engaged in professional management and other related occupations, that is, white jobs, compared with 41% of whites, 31% of blacks, and 22% of Latinos. On the contrary, the proportion of Asians engaged in sales, service, construction and transportation is the lowest, that is, there are fewer Asian blue-collar workers in the United States, and Asians are much more active than before in this aspect of political participation, take the Chinese as an example, the governor of Washington State, the secretary of labor, the chief of the New York Police Department, the deputy secretary of the U.S. Department of Defense, the secretary of transportation, the mayor of Boston, the secretary of energy, the secretary of the cabinet, the director of the White House Liaison Office, the legal adviser of the department, The Deputy Minister of Justice, the Minister of Commerce, many Chinese occupy high positions, such as the Governor General of Canada, the nominal commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, the mayor of Vancouver, the chief of the Vancouver Police Department, the mayor of Toronto, the minister of Canada's international ** department, the minister of the Ministry of Elderly Affairs, the provincial capital of British Columbia, the mayor of Prince George's city, etc., then these are all Chinese, and many of them are women, this situation abounds in North America, and it is impossible in other countries. Therefore, it is nonsense to say that the Chinese cannot integrate into the mainstream society of the United States.
Of course, Chinese Americans will still suffer from all kinds of difficulties and other kinds of discrimination, some of which are due to their own reasons, and some are objective reasons, for example, there are relatively few Chinese who are presidents or CEOs of large companies in the United States, and the main reason is that the Chinese as a whole are affected by Confucianism and the long-term suppression of the feudal system, and they still feel more introverted, timid, modest and cautious, and silent. And the Chinese people's speech ability is weak, not good at expressing themselves, they don't like to perform at work, they don't dare to take the initiative to fight for their own interests, they don't dare to challenge and question authority, their logical thinking ability is also relatively lacking, they don't want to be a bird, they don't want to be nosy, they don't want to take responsibility, they just like to be in the nest, so it's easy to be ignored in this career progress, I don't think this is a problem of discrimination, it's a problem of their own personality and thinking ability.
In addition, in Europe and the United States, whether it is white or black, or Latino women, they do not like to find Chinese men as partners, they feel that Chinese men do not understand romance, do not understand sweet words, do not humor, and treat women are not gentlemanly, disrespectful, and a bit machismo. Most men wear glasses, have a more critical personality, are stingy, greedy for money, and like to measure everything with money, which is particularly realistic. Generally speaking, Chinese men have no artistic cells, unlike men of other ethnicities, who can play musical instruments at every turn, and can dance when they hear **, so they feel a little bored with Chinese men. Moreover, men of descent are relatively short in stature, not particularly robust, and have a relatively low sense of security. In fact, Chinese men have already improved a lot, they are tall, there are many people who like fitness, there are many humorous Chinese, many of them have become famous talk show actors, and I think this prejudice will be improved slowly.
