People who call themselves "Asians" and "Americans" have usurped words that have a much broader definition than the one most people use today.
If you don't understand, please listen to this mini-podcast!
And give me feedback below on what would be a good solution.
Here are some ideas:
American => Gringo or Yank(ee)
Asian => East Asian
Or let East Asians keep "Asian" as their term and then we refer to things from Asia as "Oriental" (Asia used to be called "the Orient").

In 2021, I made a 30-min WanderLearn episode about 12 words/phrases that are commonly misused.
Although the video and podcast got decent attention, some people have a short attention span.
Therefore, I broke that long episode into short segments that are easy to share.
These bite-sized chunks are perfect for sharing.
You might only agree with three of my suggestions and not all 12.
Therefore, evangelize the words/phrases you want the world to change. Together, we can change their use. Yes, it's ambitious, but let's embark on this journey!
