Wu quote post

I think that this is an excellent quote in Wu’s article because it is so true. Since in another article we learned that Asian Americans were a very small percentage of Americans at this time, they probably stuck out to white Americans. But when trying to make a difference it was like they weren’t even there, because whites failed to recognize their accomplishments and treated them as if they were not legitimate people. The last part of this quote ‘they have in common a loss of control.’ This means that Asian Americans had no control over how they were viewed or treated and white Americans were out of control in their brutal treatment of Asian Americans.
