"Banana to Papaya"
It's about "Labels" that can be both good & bad e.g. like "Asians work harder & get paid less."

Any country with with diverse & multiple races & cultures. Majority cannot rule.
We Asian Americans are minority like to be treated like everyone else. 
Not based on looks, color & the way we talk e.g. like with or without accent. 
We should know & accept that we are smart & hard working & deserve the respect we've earned.  
Labels like Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. 
A beautiful sexy girl can be very smart too. 
People treat dogs better than Asians. 
Black people don't share food with other than their own kind. 
Red neck boss can apologize for stereotyping. 
Mexicans are better gardeners. 
Asians work in "IT" jobs. 
A sub plot of the none Mexican gardeners.
Not everything is how it appears. 
Helping others & we'll feel better. 
Love yourself & your body & feel good about it. 
Ditch the negative labels, accept yourself, and help others to do the same. 
Once we do, we all win.  win win. 
Let's all of us "Lose the Labels."
