Don’t forget people from India. They, as a group, have the highest incomes in the US.
They're mentioned in the piece.
I think the Indians and the Asians have one thing in common...Strong family structures that encourage performance in their children.

The problem is that they took away Oriental.
Why?

What does oriental mean anyway? When I was in Chicago, I one time visited the University of Chicago. They have a museum called the "Oriental Institute" (or something like that). But it mostly has things from the Middle East.

It is getting to be the rare tv advertising that doesn't feature a person of color. A person without color seems to get used as half of an interracial couple.
