So. It's Asian-Pacific Heritage Month.
It's kind of like Black History Month...right?
So why don't I see Disney movies or television shows about it on Disney Channel? For Black History month, there was That's So Raven specials, The Proud Family specials, movies such as The Color of Friendship and more! So, where's all the Asian love? Yeah, not so much. Instead there's a very stereotypical Asian Disney Original movie from a couple years back called Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior. Now all little kids will think, "Oh, Chinese people! Asian people! They do ninja moves!!". Yeah, not so much kids.
I just find it a bit irritating that Asian-Pacific Heritage Month isn't as big of a deal as something such as Black History Month. Asians have worked and struggled significantly here in the United States, and it's only right to commemorate this culture, too, right? Or maybe I'm just being bias because I AM Asian. Nevertheless, my point stands. I want to see more YELLOW FEVER! (<--- Joke).
