My Chinese-American wife does medical interpreting in the SF Bay Area. She recently was at the mental ward of a local hospital interpreting for a Chinese man who busted his chops to get here and now works as a janitor at an Oakland hospital. He's one of only two non-black janitors at the hospital, and to hear him tell it, he is treated brutally by the other janitors. Their supervisors (also black) side with the other janitors. He's so stressed out he had to be committed.
My wife has also had to put up with anti-asian racism from blacks as well, but thankfully nothing that bad.
