Overview of Stereotypes

     Today we focused on the stereotypes both Asians and Asian Americans deal with in the media. For a long time just as black actors, Asians just wanted normal roles. They never got the chance to play as a main character. They were always portrayed as an old man with big teeth, or a bus boy. They were always "the others". I find this common and may minorities at this time in film and the media. We went over a list of Asian American Actors that have been in film like Margret Cho.
