A few years back I was having a converstation over a few beers with a man named Stanley who was from Kenya. I asked him if he walked down the street in Detroit as a Kenyan or a black man...
He remarked that he didn't understand why people would have the same negative impression of him as a Kenyan that they would if he were a black American.

63 years ago dropped 2 atomic bombs on Japan. Japanese citizens thrive in America and their products flood all US markets. 30 years ago we were burning Vietnamese villages, Vietnamese Americans thrive in the country. Why, they got over it!
As far as the "negative impression" - see my earlier comments on Sharpton, Jackson and Liberals. BTW a negative impression is not racism.
