Neither Black or White

I think a great analogy to describe some of Angelo N. Ancheta's reading would be a classroom. Most times teachers are focused on either the top students or  the ones who perform poorly. It's hard to invest your attention much to the middle because they tend to be able to handle themselves well enough to get along, or they don't draw as much attention to themselves as maybe the other extremes.

She mentions how historically there's been a lack of acknowledgement of Asian Americans as their own category of people. Instead a tendancy to try and place them to either the black or white race has ensued.

In a democratic world though, where majority rules, or rather those who speak out more rule. It therefore becomes difficult to address anyone who is not too outspoken. Similar to what US is going through now where latino Americans are becoming more of a threat to the white society because their population is increasing. Is it fair to decide that what the majority wants is what should be done?
