Abstract

This paper explores the misrepresentation of Asian Americans in Storybird, an online platform where users publish creative writing. Through a qualitative analysis of five stories featuring Asian characters, the study identifies recurring stereotypes, such as cultural conservatism, physical biases, and societal pressures. These misrepresentations often reduce complex identities into cultural caricatures, perpetuating misleading perceptions of Asian Americans. By shedding light on these biases, the paper advocates for increased cultural sensitivity and the promotion of more nuanced portrayals. Recommendations include engaging Asian American creators and promoting media literacy among young writers to challenge existing stereotypes and foster more inclusive content.
