Honestly, its the focus on STEM fields in education bolstered by educated immigrants.
Its not some anomaly either. Its the same for Africans, Arabs and Indians as well. They have strict education and cultural standards.

I was in middle school right, 8th grade. I went to a mostly black school as you would expect being in the inner city. So me and some of the other niggas is in class, snappin, talkin, doin our work, but still on the bullshit. It's the beginning of the school year so niggas gettin in where the fit in as far as the social order goes. We talkin about our shoes and stuff like that, what chicks we bout to bag. So it's this asian dude in school with us, he's sitting toward the back of the class with his head down doing his work, we were too, but we were toward the front, all adjacent, but dude is back in the corner.
It's one dude tryin to score points because he wants to fit in, he was new to our school. So you know how kids are, he starts goin around the class just askin questions to people, and finally he reaches the asian dude.... He asks his name, and he tells him. He had a weird shirt on and some corduroy pants, like he gave no fucks about the fashion.... He wasn't annoyed about the homie talkin to him, but you can tell he wanted to get back to his work. So dude got done askin these offensive ass questions like "do ya'll eat dogs fa real" "Is asian pussy sideways" "can I tell where ya'll from by the shape of your eyes" clowin bruh, whole class is dyin. The last question he asked was where did he get his clothes, tryin to be funny like he was feelin his gear. The asian dude was like "the store" like he ain't wanna say, so my mans pressed him, which store and finally dude was like "thrift"... whole class exploded....(Do The Right Thing Outrage Gif) because we all know, even if we went to payless, you never admit you went to payless, or pickaway.....
Long story long. My nigga that was askin the questions just got out of jail in July from a 8 year joint for Agg Rob. The asian dude and his pops owns 3 corner stores and a liquor store in the same school catchment area where we grew up. This story isn't rare all like that, and now that I remember, most of the asian kids I went to school with were almost invisible.....Maybe we should take notes.

There's a difference between self segregation and what goes on in Chicago

zzombie;9507937 said:article is bullshit and nothing more than the typical liberal/leftist nonsense
SO the fact that Asians WORK hard in school and have a family structure that is more intact has nothing to do with their sucess??? it all comes down to society/government treating them nice
Am I the only one that sees the ideological underpinning of this bullshit article???

SMH I know you thought you was saying something with your story, but you seem to be missing the point that this is what everyone considers anecdotal. I can tell you plenty of personal stories that counter everything you said about black people and Asians.
Not to mention, the moral of your story is trash. You can be fly and get money, the same way you can be bummy and get money. It's our culture to look presentable at all times, so most of us don't do the bummy shit, it's just that simple.
And owning a corner store and a liquor store is nothing more than selling poison to your people. If anything we need to bring an organic, natural food store to the block and a juice bar, so these children (and adults) can get the proper nutrients. That Asian dude ain't doing nothing but exploiting the poor blacks in the neighborhood to get his pockets fat. He should be shamed NOT praised.

I don't know what you see, but it's apparently not what the article was actually saying
It's talking about artificial wage gaps. At one period in American history, Asians were paid just like blacks. After a certain period, their wages improved. They specifically compared people with similar background and education. There are no reasons for those wage differences other than whites easing up on their racism. The article even sites what was public sentiment during that transition, and it's what I've said all along. Asians didn't buck against the unfairness in American society. They simply accepted it an pushed forward. Of course whites would like that more than being called out on their bullshit, so they embraced Asians more. Once they did that, then the family structure and hard working nature of Asians came into play because when they were making more money, they could then invest more into their education.
If you actually paid attention to the article, it didn't say that Asian culture wasn't to blame for their success. It clearly pointed out that when you look at the numbers, you'l see that Asians made a significant jump before they started to invest heavily in education and that the investment in education wouldn't explaining the size of the jump. Further the jump for them began before the black family started to fall apart. Asians culture is admirable, but only racist believe that they are doing better solely because of their culture and family.

This is what y'all niggas want. You want to bunch niggas together and this what you have. This is what you always had with segregation.
There has always been middle class enclaves both white and black. There are black middle class areas even in the cities I mentioned.
How is that working out?

You don't live in reality or deal with truth. Every other ethnicity in America self segregates. We are the only stupid mahffacus afraid to live amongst our own. Even your scared ass wants to segregate. You enjoy living and socializing with the people you feel most comfortable around. You scared niggas will swear that living, learning, growing, and chilling amongst your own is some type of reversed racism or some way of being cheated out of life experiences. FOH.
