Minority invisibility has gone unnoticed in the communication discipline. It denies the existence of racial problems by consciously or unconsciously downplaying, ignoring, or oversimplifying the issues. This is evidenced from the claims of colorblindness and reverse discrimination, the belief in model minorities, and exaggerated, negative, or purposeful racial displays that permeate American culture.Using indepth interviews with AsianAmerican professionals from various metropolitan areas, this study investigates these professionals perceptions on minority invisibility and model minority status. It explores Asian Americans ethnic consciousness on four levels, discussing how the group perceives their individual invisibility, their group members invisibility, the invisibility of other American cocultural groups, and finally their expectations in changing minority invisibility in the United States. The work considers diverse viewpoints on minority invisibility, model minority, satisfaction and dissatisfaction with mainstream American culture, and cocultural ethnic relations.This study is useful to graduate and undergraduate students and researchers with an interest in race relations, AsianAmerican studies, cocultural theory, and intercultural communication studies.
