I don't understand why people should treat Asian Americans differently and unfairly, we are all American citizens with equal rights. For example, in 2013, on ABC's Jimmy Kennel Live, Jimmy aired "a segment suggesting that [the United States] kill all Chinese to resolve its $1.3 trillion trade imbalance with China ” (Keith). Kennel apologized for his "joke," but President Obama was the first to apologize for his incident, and then told him and ABC to apologize for their live segment. Not nearly a year later, the famous singer Avril Lavigne released a new music video with the stereotype of "Japanese girls as background and accessories" (Keith). Its music video continues to stream on YouTube and has not been removed, despite the uproar and dispute over the words kawaii and arigato and discrimination against Japanese and Japanese people.
