New York Times Op-Ed, 1966
Description
A 1966 New York Times Op-Ed praised post-World War II Japanese Americans for succeeding in spite of their setbacks: “the Japanese Americans are better than any other group in our society, including native-born white.” The model minority myth creates a false hierarchy by pitting Asian Americans against other racial groups.
