I'll ignore the dogwhistle behind your comment.

The really bad inner city school systems usually: a. don't have sizable Asian communities

b. Not many Asian students from those schools are accepted either.

Anecdotally, in 4 years at my inner city school district, which had a small, poor Asian population (mostly Vietnamese), only one Asian kid got into an ivy league, and her dad was a professor at a top-tier university.

I'm saying from the ones that do excel, they do just fine, and far more poor asians excel.

Calling it a dogwhistle is just trolling. The real racism is from people judging based on race instead of ability.
