Asian Americans are "the model minority" because they have best achieved "the American Dream."

The "model minority" stereotype suggests that Asians have better integrated academically, economically, and socially into American culture in comparison to other racial minority groups.

This stereotype is detrimental to the Asian American community as it poses unhealthy interracial tension, as well as ignores the heterogeneity of Asian American groups and their diversity in culture, education and class.
