I had a roommate in college who was Chinese, and he said that asians in general are some of the most racist cultures on the planet. Not in the supremecist mold of the Aryan Nation but from a perspective of arrogance.

His parents emmigrated to the United States in the late 1960s and he was born and raised in north Florida. While his folks embraced America, they disapproved of him dating white girls and were constantly trying to set him up with a "proper" wife. He claimed that asians in general look down upon those who are not asian, and even those who are of a different ethnic stock, as not having been blessed by the gods to be (insert ethnic group here).

He said that this was the reason why amer-asian children born to American servicemen and tourists overseas (especially in Korea and Okinawa, but also in Vietnam back during the war) are almost always given to an orphanage unless the parents are married. He said that the family was so ashamed of a racially mixed child that they would banish it rather than raise the child at home. I guess that explains why there are always seems to be a large supply of asian children ready to be adopted by American parents.
