Asian Americans only make up a small percent of the American population. Even more significant is that this percentage live mostly on the west and east coasts of mainland United States and Hawaii; leaving the rest of the American population to most likely get their exposures to Asians through television and movies. However the exposure they have receive throughout the history of cinematography has been hardly flattering. Throughout the course of history Asians in film have been portrayed as evil

The experience of black American aviators in World War II gets a whitewash in Red Tails. The story of the 996 pilots (and some 15‚000 ground personnel) who distinguished themselves in the air in the face of institutional racism is a great one and‚ at least‚ will come to the attention of more people due to this long-gestating project from Lucas film.

Clint Eastwood makes American sniper the number seven on my top favorite movies. I think the story of Chris Kyle is the most powerful U.S military story I ever read and seen.
