All I know is that having a person with a strong accent answering phones at customer service is hard to understand sometimes.

I once called information to ask the phone number for the local hospital my father was at and I swear some guy in India answered and had no clue what I wanted, lol.

Hollywood doesn't do a great job of portraying them in media.

For the same reason half of america pouted the entire time obama was president.

Racism.

[Asker]

yes but racism got nothing to do with it i guess?

[NotTacocaT6969]

It’s a racial stereotype created and enforced by Hollywood.

most indian immigrants come to america to find a better life and a better paying jobs but they're just put into/given jobs like uber driving etc... thats terrible... even in movies they show an indian driving the uber which brings the stereotypes

[Asker]

yes but do you guys know what most CEOs of top American tech companies are also indians? like google, microsoft, twitter, adobe etc and now even starbucks but the media don't really show this part in america
