3 Stereotypes About Asians That Prevent These Domestic Violence Survivors from Getting Help


by Amy Sun

In case you missed it, the “Black male boogeyman” has overrun our newsfeeds these past weeks.

With Adrian Peterson’s child beating and Ray Rice’s elevator pushing on everyone’s lips, it’s a tough time to be both black and male. Images of the towering black male body come to mind, and commentators theorize about the “nature” of black men, black families, and black values.

And things slowly spin out of control.

Are we still talking about domestic violence, or are we letting race take over the conversation?
