Asian American
Asian American refers to individuals in the United States who have origins in countries in Asia. This diverse group includes people from East Asia (like China, Japan, and Korea), Southeast Asia (such as Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines), and South Asia (including India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh). The term encompasses a wide range of cultures, languages, and experiences. Asian Americans have significantly contributed to American society in various fields; however, they have also faced challenges, such as stereotyping and discrimination, making their experiences unique within the broader context of American history and multiculturalism.
