Who Counts as Asian, and What Counts as Anti-Asian Hate?

Indians and Pakistanis classify themselves as Asian, yet other Americans, including other Asian Americans, are significantly less likely to do so

While national origin groups subsumed under the Asian rubric do not share a common language, ethnicity, culture, or religion, the definition is born of centuries of legal exclusion in the United States that denied U.S. citizenship to immigrants from Asian countries.
