If you include women, the percentage goes up, but no where near the truth. There are very few strong asian male characterizations in the media that aren't criminals (type casting), that are always beaten (in hand-to-hand karate etc fighting) by the all conquering and godly white male. Please...

So now the white man is responsible for central casting?
Your post is the exact problem. Shut up and get busy improving your life.
Edit: I grew up in California, must of my buddies were Asian...two families who were interned during WWII. My Mother's side of the family are in the minority. We (my friends and family) have all been successful because we never stopped to think it was anyone's responsibility but ours to be successful..
Edit again (because this whole thread Pi$$es me off): My best friend is a retired Marine LtCol, as dark as a starless night. He grew up in a very poor town in Michigan, no doubt subjected to slings and arrows most the posters on this board can only read about.
We have talked about every racial issue he has faced in his life. His response is always to move forward, never stop. The day we all let this BS go will be the first step to moving forward.
