According to critical race theory, the identity group you fall into has systemic power over others. That means that no, you would not be considered disadvantaged or part of any oppressed group. Therefore it's not possible to be racist towards you.

Of course, there are still plenty of people who don't see white immigrants through the prism of Woke ideology so you'd likely find some sympathetic to considering you as a diverse hire, despite not checking any boxes on the Woke identity list. It would be an unofficial acknowledgement though.

I know you're not saying it, but not sure when Asian-Americans ever had systemic power over others in this country. Korematsu v. United States is one explicit example of the opposite...

I do wonder occasionally, when did institutional racism become the only flavor of racism?

About the time that descriptive studies departments in the mid 1980's decided that narrative telling was more important than making falsifible claims.
