And for this week's news of racism, we have Ms. Betty Brown, Representative in the Texas state legislature, who kindly suggested that Asian Americans should change their names so as not to confuse the poll workers. Hey, it's working for Lucy Liu. (The parts she play often has completely Anglo names for some reason -- e.g. Nola Lyons, Mia Mason.)
Thank you to the good folks at Korea Beat for the link.
