Is Indian considered Asian?

Brown skin, dark hair, often works at the local convenience store, looks different then the other dark skinned races down here. Woman often adorn their foreheads with a dot which results in the somewhat vulgar nickname Dot Heads.

Without asking someone of this description exactly what part of the world their ancestors are from people of this description are politely referred to as Middle Eastern decent in the part of the world where I live.

I live in a very mixed culture of many races where many languages are spoken and everyone is treated with respect and tolerance no matter what part of this big spinning rock they are from.

Looking at your comments this is something that you have never learned. Maybe you should try climbing down from your soapbox and learn a thing or two from us folks that you seem to look down on so much.
