Do Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders belong to a single "Asian American" culture? please help

Answer 1

Absolutely not.

Asia is the largest continent in the world, composed of such diverse countries as Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Russia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Bhutan, Turkey, India, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, North Korea, South Korea, Japan, and China. In addition there are many different Pacific Island nations -- Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, and New Zealand, for example.

It's interesting that in England, an Asian connotes a person from the Middle East -- Saudi Arabia, Syria, etc. In the U.S., most people think of people from Eastern Asia -- Japan, China, Korea, etc.

Answer 2

Japanese and Samoans, or Chinese and Tahitians the same culture? I don't think they would agree. Nor would Nigerians and Black Americans be the same culture.
Genetics seldom define cultures.

Answer 3

thank you both for your help. I greatly appreciated.
