Many Asian American and Pacific Islander adults have experienced or witnessed some degree of upheaval because of the Trump administration’s heightened immigration policies, a new AP-NORC/AAPI Data poll finds, while most say the U.S. is no longer the land of opportunity for immigrants.
A new poll released Monday from AAPI Data and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows about half of AAPI adults say they — or someone they know — have been detained or deported within the last year, started carrying proof of immigration status or U.S. citizenship, upended travel plans or significantly changed their routines because of immigration status.
Welcome to the American experience all Americans experience.
There’s exceptions for people with connections to people in the asset category of hundreds of millions and higher. It’s just that america hates everyone and everything but money.
Also, everybody, everywhere, every nation is racist. Some just do a better job of hiding behind their mask than others. People have some real petty beliefs and almost nobody is willing to admit to them. Some may even feel bad and try to avoid presenting any of it or even convincing themselves that the things they do bypasses their biases or is balanced out somehow, but it’s still there.
