Angry Asian Man response

Angry Asian Man is a blog created by some ordinary Chinese-American guy that tries to present all the news, information, and uprising regarding Asians across America. The posts within the blog are not all about racism, even though racism is a topic that excites the blogger, but more about how people see Asian within the American society and how people of Asian descendant should be more aware of the people in their society. Moreover, the posts presented are mostly about issues relating to Asian-American, not just racism towards Asians.

I think the blog is more into presenting topics that are related to Asians. Most of the reported news, topics, and ideas in America are often times focused on news relating to White-Americans and much less towards other race, such as Asians. Angry Asian Man is there to unveil topics that are related to people of Chinese ethnicity. The blog helps its viewers, especially Asians, to get the sense of pride towards being Asian and getting to know more topics and news relating to Asians. Not only that, most of us knows that people of Asians descendent often suffer racism for being a “people of color”. Furthermore, Asians are often neglected in America for being less prioritized by the government due to their descendent. The most prominent example is the fact that there is so little news report regarding Asians in America, despite the fact that there are so many of them. This is where the blog comes in as the blog focuses on news relating to Asians as a whole, not just Chinese. The blog have all sorts of latest information and topics regarding Asians. Moreover, the blog allows its viewers to have an open discussion in every post entered. This allow its viewers to partake themselves in the blog and make it more into a community. This community allows the members to discuss more news relating to Asians and make more and more people gain consciousness towards Asians. The blog has also done exceptionally well in inserting racist topics and tackle them funnily by having funny titles and exaggerating comments (some of the posts comes from its members). The blog gives a sense of community towards Asians who want to express themselves but too shy to start-off on their own, as the blog entitles things that is allows people to express themselves.
