Asian bullying in America is nothing new to the world. Priyanka Chopra recently opened up about facing racist bullying during her high school years in America when she was just 16, which caused her to leave the US as a teenager. 

"High school is hard anyway. To becoming of age, to understand your body as a woman. At the same time being devalued for something, I couldn't change. I wasn't aware that this is something I should feel embarrassed about. But I guess when I was made to feel like, did my clothes smelled funny when I walked by a hallway or did people smell curry or little things like that at 16 are so detrimental to a sense of self-worth, your sense of self. It's just about being mean, trying to hurt someone." she said in an interview with Oprah Winfrey.

 "I definitely took a year where I got really paranoid of people knowing my whereabouts. I didn't even want to go to a restaurant, because I thought someone will know I'm at this restaurant. They'll take a picture, they'll send it, they'll know my house is open, they'll know that my kids are there...I was just really scared of everything. I can't sleep at night unless there's half a dozen security guards at my house, and that has just become my reality and that's okay,” Kim said
