Over the next five years, the number of Asian Americans will grow by 27 percent, to 14 million, a rate far faster than for the population as a whole, according to new projections from MapInfo Corporation, in Troy, N.Y. Projections from the Selig Center for Economic Growth, at the University of Georgia, reveal that Asian spending power will reach $455 billion by 2007, an increase of nearly 300 percent since 1990. While these statistics are impressive, businesses that approach Asian consumers can be intimidated by their complexity, says Bill Imada, chairman and CEO of IW group, a Los Angeles-based advertising agency specializing in the Asian market.

Valuable Partnerships Help Asian Americans Achieve Their "American Dream" T he U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) maintains valuable partnerships with numerous organizations around the nation that work to bring success to the small business community. This month we would like to recognize the Asian American Alliance in Chicago, Illinois and the U.S. Pan Asian American Chamber of Commerce (USPAACC), headquartered in Washington, D.C. Asian American Alliance The DOT OSDBU has a partnership agreement with the Asian American Alliance in Chicago, Illinois to support OSDBU's Transportation Equity Act Model (TEAM) program. This and other TEAM partnerships were designed to facilitate interest from the small, women and minority-owned, and disadvantaged business community towards contract opportunities within Mega Projects and other design/build initiatives. The Asian American Alliance is a not-for-profit advocacy organization that is committed to establishing a supportive network to assist Asian American small business owners in Illinois. Incorporated in 1994, the Alliance is a coalition of Chambers of Commerce representing the Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and Vietnamese-American small business communities. The Alliance is also working diligently to expand their influence and assistance to the Pakistani, Indian, and Thai communities. The Alliance assists entrepreneurs in the minority certification process, increasing the bonding capacity of certified vendors, helping certified vendors obtain capital, providing information to minority vendors regarding available services, identifying qualified minority vendors, and encouraging the participation of minority vendors in bidding and obtaining available contracts.

Understanding Our Perceptions of Asian Americans By Peter N. Kiang, Ed. D. Graduate College of Education, University of Massachusetts at Boston Related Lesson: Perceptions of Asian Americans A waitress asked: "Where are you from?" I told her my great-grandfather came to work the mines in New Mexico. My grandfather was a tailor in Oakland and my mother was born in Stockton. And the waitress interrupted and without any hesitation said: "So how do you like your new country?" He asked the price of beef. Then he said: "You Koreans charge too much." My brother said: "I'm not Korean, I'm Cambodian." But he's mad. He says: "You Koreans rip us off." The growth and diversification of the Asian American population in recent years has been nothing short of phenomenal. Driven by sustained immigration and refugee resettlement during the 1970's and 1980's, Asian Americans have emerged as the nation's fastest growing racial group. Given that the school-age Asian American population doubled in the 1980's and is expected to double again between 1990 and 2020, our schools and the larger society must confront some critical questions. For example, what do we know and what can we teach and learn about Asian Americans? Asian Americans number more than 9.1 million in the United States and represent more than thirty different nationalities and ethnic groups, including Samoan, Tongan, Guamanian, and native Hawai'ian from the Pacific Islands; Lao, Hmong, Mien, Vietnamese, Cambodian, Thai, Burmese, Malay, and Filipinos from Southeast Asia; Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Indian, and Sri Lankan from South Asia; Afghani and Iranian from Central Asia; and Korean, Japanese, and Chinese from East Asia. In the year 2000, the six largest Asian nationalities in the United States will be Filipinos, Chinese, Vietnamese, Koreans, Asian Indians, and Japanese. The diversity of Asian Americans, in terms of their various languages, cultures, and histories is remarkable.

South Asian American Studies A Working Bibliography 1975-1994 Rosane Rocher A collection of essays, The Asian American: The Historical Experience , edited by Norris Hundley in 1976, included an article originally published by Gary R. Hess in the Pacific Historical Review As a bibliography developed for a course in which a majority of enrolled students were born of post-1965 immigrants from India in the United States, this selection of titles differs in some respects from that in South Asians in North America: An Annotated and Selected Bibliography edited by Jane Singh and others at the Center for South and Southeast Asia Studies, University of California, Berkeley, in 1988. The original occasion for Singh's bibliography was the cataloguing of a library collection on the Gadar Party, an organization founded in 1913 by immigrants from the Indian subcontinent on the West Coast of the United States and Canada in support of India's struggle for independence. The difference in focus is reflected in the title: whereas South Asians in North America evokes South Asian sojourners on alien American soiland includes items dealing with visitors to North America such as Vivekananda, the present bibliography places the South Asian American experience within the context of an Asian American ethnicity. It is the premise of the course for which this bibliography was developed that the experience of Americans of South Asian origin is best studied in the light, not only of a global South Asian diaspora, but also of the shared experiences of successive generations of Americans of Asian ethnicity. Differently from the focus indicated in the subheadings "The Immigrant Experience, 1900-1946" and "The Immigrant Experience, 1947-1986" in

30 October 2001 Tuesday 12 Shaban 1422 Please Visit our Sponsor (Ads open in separate window) Asian-Americans face victimization after Sept 11 attacks By Akhilesh Upadhyay NEW YORK: Jail Singh Chauhan, a pot-bellied and pleasant taxi driver originally from the Indian Punjab, says business has never been as bad as since last month's terrorist attack here. "We are dead, sir, we are dead," he says, speaking for other New York City cabbies who, like him, come from South Asia. The city has 92,000 licensed cab drivers, according to the Taxi and Limousine Commission. Exactly how many are South Asian is not known but they are thought to number in the thousands. In the weeks since the Sept 11 destruction of the World Trade Centre, the city's yellow cab fleet has reported a 50 percent fall in profits. "I don't remember worse times," sighs Chauhan, a Sikh who wears a turban. Fares are lost or forgone for reasons both traumatic and cathartic. Some would-be passengers hail Chauhan's cab only to turn away at the sight of his beard and headdress, which to the untrained eye resemble Osama bin Laden's. "I can't change my face just because they don't like it, right?" he says. Others hop in and offer him a sympathetic ear. He feels so thankful to some of them for letting him share his feelings that he politely declines payment of the fare.

Asian American Voices for Affirmative Action by Paul Rockwell Oakland, California In a flip remark last June, University of California (UC) Regents Ward Connerly said: "I would be quite comfortable with only white and Asian students at UC, I have no problem with that." It was Henry Der, Chair of Chinese for Affirmative Action who took Connerly and Pete Wilson to task. In his eloquent address to the UC Regents, August 20th, Der said: "If Asian American students were to attend certain UC campuses that are exclusively Asian and white, such segregated education would not prepare Asian American students to assume leadership positions in a multiracial California society. As a parent, I do not want any of my three children to experience or choose a segregated college education." Pete Wilson's attempt to foment hostility between Asian American and African American communities has already backfired. Asian American support for affirmative action is growing. Throughout California's communities of color there is an awakened sense that an injury to one is an injury to all. Filipinos for Affirmative Action, the Asian Law Caucus, the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance; Kimi Lee, Executive Director of tbe University of California Student Association; and Eddie Wong, Western Region Rainbow Coalition Director, are playing an active role in defending affirmative action for America.

Seventy percent of US Asians are immigrants who entered the US during one of three distinct immigration waves: before 1975, between 1975-1979, and 1980 or later. Most Asian Americans who have arrived since 1965 still live in ten large metropolitan areas. In 1996, an estimated four in ten Asian Americans lived in California. These US Asian-born individuals emigrated from countries with the overall lowest breast cancer rates in the world.

NAPALC and its Affiliates documented nearly 250 bias-motivated incidents targeting Asian Pacific Americans generally and South Asians particularly in the three-month period following September 11th. This number stands in stark contrast to the approximately 400-500 anti-APA incidents annually that NAPALC has reported in previous years. 2. At least two APAs were murdered as part of the backlash. Almost immediately following the terrorist attacks on September 11th, a Sikh American gas station owner was shot and killed in Mesa,Arizona by a white male who fired shots at the victim from a pickup truck and sped away. A suspect arrested by the police was reported to have said as he was being handcuffed, "I stand for America all the way." In another incident, a 46-year-old male Pakistani American store owner was shot and killed in Dallas, Texas. There was no evidence of a robbery, and the police are investigating the incident as a hate crime.

ASIAN-AMERICAN CHILDREN: WHO ARE THEY? The term Asian-American covers a variety of national, cultural, and religious heritages. Indeed, Asian-Americans represent more than 29 distinct subgroups who differ in language, religion, and customs. The four major groups of Asian-Americans are East Asian, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean; Pacific Islander; Southeast Asian, such as Thai and Vietnamese; and South Asian, such as Indian and Pakistani (Pang, 1990). Although there are similarities among the various subgroups, they have different origins, ecological adaptations, and histories.

WASHINGTON— Shortly after September , South Asians and Arabs in the United States were harrassed and assaulted. Zainep Mahmoud , a young high school student of African descent, wrote a play titled "Unforgettable." It was inspired by news reports of the post 9-11 backlash against Indian Americans, Pakistani Americans, Arab Americans, Sikhs, and Muslims. The play focused on the posty 9-11 tragedies that resulted from stereotyping. It also offered an appeal for racial and religious tolerance. "Unforgettable" was one of nine plays chosen by the Young Playwrights Theatre of Washington for performance throughout the Washington, D.C., area during 2002 and 2003. It was performed at the Kennedy Center ’s Millennium Stage, the Folger Shakespeare Theatre, the Canadian Embassy and at area schools, community centers and senior citizen centers. Its author, Ms.
