• MEDIA: Silicon Valley's Many Asian Americans Still Feel Like a Minority

    Michael Bloomberg's guest bloggers, Priya Anand and Ellen Huet, on
    whether Ellen Pao is succeeding in mobilizing Asians against the
    legacy American proles enslaving them dual-intent visas: <URL:https://news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-report/silicon-valleys-many-asian-americans-still-feel-like-a-minority>
    | The differences in how various groups arrived in the U.S., and their
    | education levels, partly explain why income inequality is greater
    | among Asian Americans than any other racial or ethnic group, and why
    | more than 30% of Asian Americans voted for the reelection of former
    | President Donald Trump last November, even after he referred to
    | Covid-19 as the "Chinese virus" and "kung flu." The Bay Area is home
    | to Asian billionaires, as well as Asian residents who collect
    | recyclables on the street. And in the tech industry, the economic
    | opportunities for Asian workers can vary greatly--particularly among
    | immigrants who can be trapped in low-mobility, lower-wage jobs while
    | on H-1B visas.

    Does Trump regret sending Jared and Ivanka Kushner to Silicon Valley
    to sue for peace with Mark Zuckerberg?
