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.
The only sitcom in American history to feature an all-Asian cast is "Fresh Off the Boat." Premiering in 2015, the show is based on Eddie Huang's memoir and follows a Taiwanese-American family navigating life in Orlando, Florida during the 1990s. It was notable for its representation of Asian-American culture and experiences in mainstream media.
