Comparing races like that is just despicable and I condemn those statements.

It's either ignorant or disingenuous for this professor to make those claims as if asians-americans weren't systematically targeted, incarcerated in concentration camps, and had their properties seized (federally) a long time after the abolition of slavery and even the Jim Crow era.

I'd say Jennifer Lee being a more recent immigrant from Korea may be just oblivious to that and give her the benefit of the doubt, if it wasn't for a fact that as a professor she should've known the history a lot better.
