E/CN.4/1995/78/Add.1 page 37 44/ Ibid. 45/ It should be noted that Asian Americans are often called a model minority because of their relative integration into American society, but, as the Special Rapporteur was told, it is a stereotype which ignores the long history of exclusion and discrimination which continues today. 46/ See also United States Commission on Civil Rights, Bigotry and Violence on American College Campuses, Washington, D.C., October 1990. 47/ Antisemitism. 1994, p. 226. World Report 1994, Institute of Jewish Affairs, London 48/ The Special Rapporteur would like to point out that tension between African Americans and Jews is one facet of the conflicts that can exist between ethnic minorities or within the ethnic minorities themselves. Relations between these minorities, which have inherited the ethnic and racial prejudices developed by American society, or which seek to benefit from social stratification based on racial or ethnic identity, may be deeply marked by latent hostility, by a degree of disdain or indifference, if they do not simply degenerate into violent conflict, as is sporadically the case between African Americans and Koreans, between Latinos and African Americans. 49/ The American Jewish Committee, Strategy and Action Plan for Black-Jewish Relations, New York, 1994. 50/ Antisemitism, op. cit., p. 228. 51/ Ibid., p. 227. 52/ Until 1965, preference was given to migrants of European and in particular British origin. Immigration of Asians was tightly restricted. 53/ On 16 February 1994, Mr. Manuel Tello, Mexican Minister for Foreign Affairs, said that "the Mexican Government remains concerned about the hardening of measures against immigrants in the border area, because the problem will only be resolved in the long term and with specific rather than police measures".
