2 Asian American Studies The enactment of interracial marriages in the US has led to the dominating white culture being almost subdued, with various projections showing an increase in the number of those who identify as multiracial to the dominating white Americans. This growth has led to the notion of the States becoming post-racial, increasing from 3% in 1967 to 19% in 2019 (Zhou & Ocampo, 2016, p. 391). In all this growth, the Asian-American culture is not left behind, with most intermarriages being between whites and Asians, forming 40% of interracial marriages. It shows the stereotypes associated with the Asian community are decreasing steadily, and the acceptance of all cultures being equal is progressing upward. Interestingly, Asians have demonstrated more interracial marriages than other ethnic minorities, even blacks. This is because blacks are still wary of the slavery and discrimination they received from whites. As for Asians and Latinos, the new color line favors them and makes them more identifiable as the majority of interracial marriage ethnic groups (Zhou & Ocampo, 2016, p. 399). This has led to Asians being much closer to whites than blacks, especially in states where immigration is high. Consequently, there is more loss of racial boundaries that happens more quickly for Asians than other minorities, given they have no roots of slavery as the blacks. The South Korean aspect of using the US and other Western countries as "dumping sites" was to some extent when the Seoul Olympics of 1998 made the exposure. Marked with war and Korean War and the aftermath relation it had with the US, the country found an area to make its transnational adoption possible. In addition, Asian Americans were involved in the adoption as part of the racialization of the Korean adoptees, which was conceptualized by the American transnational adoption (Zhou & Ocampo, 2016, p. 406). However, after the post-war, Korean international adoption influenced that of America, which led to it being favored as more

3 demanding and a social need. America has thus responded to demanding transnational adoptees even with countries like South Korea developing their economies. Nonetheless, they are seen as people who need help, with South Korea playing a more central field in the influence and multiracial taking effect. Questions 1. Where do the blacks fall in the equation with the new color line favoring the Asians? What can they do to bridge black exceptionalism? 2. What is the major contributing factor for the transnational adoptees, even with countries developing their economies?
