Very healthy representation in the highest levels of government and corporate leadership
Highest income level, even higher than Jewish and Chinese people
High levels of capital ownership
All stereotypes against Indian Americans are similar to the ones against white Americans, not really that bad (rich, smart, business savvy)
Less hate crimes than POC, probably less than Jewish people too
Racism against Indian Americans specifically is pretty low, lower than Jewish people. Obviously the attitude towards those from the motherland and commonwealth countries are a different matter
Identity very homogenized and white Americanized like Irish, Italians, Jewish people, east Asians to an extent
They’re too brown, and they aren’t the right kind of Abrahamists. You can get away with being swarthy if you worship the God of Abraham as a Christian, and more recently as a Jew, which the vast majority of Indians are not. Arabs, or more specifically Arab Christians, are more likely to be white than Indians and indeed, Arabs are considered white in the US census, largely due to Arab Christians arguing that not saying Arabs are white means you think Jesus isn’t white. Arab Christians like Ralph Nader are treated as white people. Meanwhile, everyone assumes Indian people worship cows or thinks repeating Apu’s catchphrase is the height of comedy. Even the idea of an Indian Muslim just makes people go “huh?”
Pretty weird question tbh.
