Final answer:

Pessimism, stoicism, & laziness are stereotypes of Asian Americans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pessimism, stoicism, & laziness are stereotypes of Asian Americans.

These stereotypes are typically applied to Asian groups in the United States, leading to unrealistic expectations and stigma for those who do not meet these expectations. The stereotype of Asian Americans being smart and capable can also result in a lack of government assistance and educational and professional discrimination. Asian Americans have faced discrimination and denial of their civil rights throughout history, despite the stereotype of being the "model minority".
