LabelIs there prejudice against Asians? Q854
Question text Now I would like to ask you some questions about racial prejudice in Britain. First, thinking of Asians - that is, people whose families were originally from India, Pakistan or Bangladesh - who now live in Britain. Do you think there is a lot of prejudice against them in Britain nowadays, a little , or hardly any?
