Japanese Americans, Pluralism, and the Model Minority Myth.
Endo, George T.; Della-Piana, Connie Kubo
Theory into Practice, v20 n1 p45-51 Win 1981
The current belief is that Japanese Americans are passive, industrious, respectful, patient, and intelligent. They have been transformed from the "yellow peril" into the "model minority". Education featuring respect for and awareness of various ethnicities will eliminate much prejudice. (JN)
