What was the cause for the Asian American movement?

The Asian American movement was driven largely by student activists invigorated by anti-Vietnam war and black power movements. Challenging stereotypes about Asian "passivity" and rejecting labels such as "oriental," Asian American activists mobilized this new consciousness to demand an end to racist hiring practices, biased school curricula, demeaning media stereotypes, residential discrimination, and the gentrification of historically Asian American neighborhoods. And even though it was mostly a youth movement, it could be argued that the Asian American movement transformed older community institutions, created new ones, and dramatically advanced the position of Asian American power in American urban politics.

Why is the history of Islam so unknown in the western world?

Most Westerners barely know their own history, let alone the history of a different group of people from themselves. Western failure to know the History of Islam is quite strongly matched by Western failure to know South Asian History, Southeast Asian History, African History, Latin American History, East Asian History, Central Asian History, and, in some cases, Eastern European History. Conversely, I have discovered that most Muslims only have a general understanding of European History and even that history is based on Imperialist interactions and not based on domestic Western activities and views.The bottom line is that people everywhere are disinterested in learning history, especially of others.
