The article's citing of purely anecdotal evidence notwithstanding, you're gosh darn right a largely Anglican culture such as the US compartmentalizes a visually and culturally distinct demographic as economically but not socially useful. As such we're (I'm AA) seen as faceless instruments, which I'm totally cool with, and anybody who couldn't tell one monkey from another should feel the same (if you believe I just equated Asians to monkeys, then you've missed my point). There are clear evolutionary reasons why humans need to quickly and efficiently classify someone from an outside tribe as "Other."
