Asian Americans constitute over 6% of the total population of New Jersey, according to Census 2000 results. The new release contains population counts for detailed race groups, including 16 Asian American groups, as well as housing, age, and family characteristics for race groups from the Census 2000 short form. The Asian American Federation, a Census Bureau-designated Census Information Center based in New York City, analyzed the detailed Asian group data. The largest Asian American groups in New Jersey are Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Korean, and Vietnamese Americans, respectively. Following the national trend, the Indian and Vietnamese American communities grew the fastest in New Jersey between 1990 and 2000, at rates over 100 percent each. Chinese, Korean, and Filipino Americans ranked third, fourth and fifth, respectively, in growth rate. Federation CIC analysis also discovered growing Pakistani and Taiwanese American communities in some areas of New Jersey, as well as small emerging pockets of Bangladeshi, Indonesian, Sri Lankan, and Thai Americans in various New Jersey cities.

Asian Americans People from Asia have been migrating to the United States for nearly 200 years now. The first Asian immigrants came from China, and they were brought over by American companies seeking cheap laborers. Early Asian immigrants, mostly Chinese and Japanese, were met with resentment and racism by whites in the U.S. In addition to violent attacks, early Asian immigrants were subjected to a long list of anti-Asian legislation. One of the effects of this legislation was to make it nearly impossible for any new immigrants from Asia to come to the United States for nearly a century until the mid-1960s. As a result, the vast majority of the Asian-Pacific American population has come to the United States during the past four decades. As with the other groups of racial categorization, the race “Asian” is problematic. It is based largely on geography, rather than on the race of the people. For instance, people from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and India do not racially look like people from China, Japan, and Vietnam but are categorized in the same race because of their geography.

According to the 2000 U.S. Census, those who identify only as Asian -American comprise percent of the American population, approximately 10 million individuals. The Census Bureau pr oje cts that the Asian American population will grow to 37.6 million individuals by the year 2050 , comprising 9 percent of the population . Asian American populations are generally concentrated in the western states, the N ortheast, and parts of the S outh. The states with the greatest concentration of Asian American s are Hawaii, California, Washington, New Jersey, and New York Asian Americans represent a wide variety of languages, dialects, and cultures as different from one another as from non-Asian groups. Asian Americans have historically been overlooked due to the “myth of the model minority”: the erroneous notion that Asian American s are passive, compliant, and without problems or needs. The effects of this myth have been the failure to take seriously the very real concerns of this population.

References Approximately 2 million American Indians and Alaska Natives live in the United States. Since July 1, 1990, the U.S. population of American Indians and Alaska Natives has increased by 10.4%. The number of American Indians and Alaska Natives is expected to increase steadily to 2.4 million in 2000, 3.1 million in 2020, and 4.4 million in 2050. Major subgroups in this population are American Indians, Eskimos, and Aleuts. Most American Indians and Alaska Natives have settled across the country; the largest percentage resides in Oklahoma (13%). Although many tribes consider tobacco a sacred gift and use it during religious ceremonies and as traditional medicine, the tobacco-related health problems they suffer are caused by chronic cigarette smoking and spit tobacco use. Because of the cultural and geographic diversity of American Indians and Alaska Natives, tobacco use often varies widely by region or subgroup. Health Effects Nationally, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among American Indians and Alaska Natives.

References Diabetes mellitus poses a rapidly growing health challenge to Asian and Pacific Islander Americans in the United States. In 1997, the Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) population was estimated to be about 10 million, almost a 50 percent increase since the 1990 Census and representing about 3.8 percent of the total U.S. population. This group includes people whose origins are in the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and the Pacific Islands. Results of the 1990 census showed that the APIA population had the greatest increase of any major ethnic group, doubling in size since the 1980 census. The Immigration Act of 1965 and the arrival of many Southeast Asian refugees under the Refugee Resettlement Program after 1975 contributed to the increase in population observed in the past two decades.

Scholastic Home About Us Site Map Search ... Resources Teacher's Guide for Asian American History PROJECT DESCRIPTION America has been called both a melting pot and a tossed salad because of its history of immigration and assimilation. However, not all immigration groups were quickly or easily accepted into the American way of life. Asians were one of the groups that found it hard to come to the United States, and once they had immigrated, found their lives restricted in ways that other immigrant groups did not encounter. In spite of these obstacles, Asian Americans have contributed in many ways to our nation's history and continue to be one of the largest new immigrant groups today. To learn more about the history and culture of these Asian Americans, Scholastic.com presents Asian American Heritage. This online activity introduces different stories and activities to students and reinforces that Asian Americans have diverse cultural backgrounds. This activity celebrates those differences especially during Asian Pacific American Heritage Month in May.

The Rediff US Special/ Aseem Chhabra Asian Indian Population Doubles in a Decade May 15, 2001 Fuelled by the demand for hi-tech visa workers as well as a growing number of immigrants sponsoring their families, the Asian Indian population in the United States has doubled in the last 10 years, according to data released on Tuesday by the Census Bureau and analyzed by the Asian American Federation Census Information Centre. Based on the count of the 2000 Census, there are 1.7 million people in the US who identify themselves as Asian Indians or Indian Americans first- and second-generation immigrants or those whose ancestors migrated to the US from India. "It is a little early to say, but the economy definitely has something to do with this increase," Parag Khandhar, a policy associate and census coordinator at AAFCIC said. "One obvious factor for the growth in the Indian American community is the importing of the hi-tech workers." According to an estimate provided by the Immigration Support Network, a lobby group that works in the interests of H1-B workers, last year there were approximately 400,000 Asian Indian hi-tech visa holders in the US. Most of them had arrived in the past few years to run what was then a booming new (Internet-based) economy. "If you look at places like New Jersey and New York City, you are seeing that more Indian Americans specifically are getting involved in politics and thinking about representation issues," Khandhar said, adding that these people were inspired by the dramatic increase in the numbers of Asian Indians. Currently there are five South Asians, including three Indian Americans, running for the New York City Council.

MUSEUM SPOTLIGHT: An Untold Triumph The All-Filipino Battalion of World War II. By Ramon Gil for AIA Members of the All-Filipino First Infantry Regiment receive training in radio communications. "I had no idea!" were the words spoken by the Philippine ambassador according to Noel "Sonny" Izon, director of "An Untold Triumph: Filipino American Soldiers of World War II." This was a sentiment shared by even the most avid Philippine history buffs after screening the 84 minute film. While it was common knowledge that many Filipinos fought along side US forces in the Philippines, what was not known was that among those Filipino fighters were many American born Filipinos who belonged to a special unit of the US Army called the 1st Filipino Infantry Regiment. At the outbreak of WWII, Filipinos living in the United States were barred from acquiring US citizenship, buying property and serving in the military by the 1934 Tydings-McDuffie act. But after word broke of the attack on the Philippines by the Japanese, thousands of "Pinoys" were itching to do their part, and were especially keen to go back to the islands to help liberate the land of their parents. After an extensive campaign to change the draft status of Filipinos, Secretary of War Henry Stimson approved the creation of a special all-Filipino battalion. Filipino Americans enlisted by the thousands eventually making it necessary to expand the unit to a "regiment" and later on - two regiments. By the time they were ready to be shipped out to the Philippines, the two regiments were 8,000 strong.

On a daily basis, we have been inundated with commentators decrying or defending this economic trend or a new study that purports to show the effects on the US economy. 'Outsourcing' or 'offshoring' broadly refers to the movement of service-related jobs overseas, usually in response to lower labour costs. The responses to outsourcing have been swift; anti-outsourcing legislation has been introduced in a multitude of states. Outsourcing has even become fodder for late-night talk shows and editorial page cartoons.

Common Drugs of Abuse Acid/LSD Alcohol Cocaine Club Drugs Drug Testing Heroin Inhalants Marijuana MDMA/Ecstasy Methamphetamine Nicotine PCP (Phencyclidine) Prescription Medications Prevention Research Steroids Treatment Research Trends and Statistics This is a science-based resource calendar on the health effects of drugs of abuse and on drug addiction, its prevention, and its treatment. It has been made especially for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and other Pacific Islanders, but we hope many communities, schools, and families nationwide will find it useful. Drug abuse and addiction affect every culture, race, socioeconomic level, and age group in the United States. Knowing the harmful effects of the drugs most frequently abused is one of the first steps toward understanding the high risks involved with taking drugs. It is also important to have deep respect for those individuals who enter the healing process of treatment, and to acknowledge not only the drug abuser, but also an entire family, and often an entire culture. We extend our deepest gratitude to those who contributed their guidance, creative recommendations, cultural sensitivity, and translation skills in the development of this resource.With their help, the rich and diverse histories of the many Asian, Native Hawaiian, and other Pacific Islander cultures are captured in the artwork or photography featured each month. In addition, they have provided translations for 9 of the months in this resource calendar, which features 12 of these cultures thriving in America today.
