美国纽约州立大学水牛城分校退休华裔物理学荣誉教授林良多(Duo-Liang Lin)在美国《华盛顿邮报》上发表了一首英文诗《你们究竟要我们怎样生存？》，随后在互联网上热传并引起中西方网友热议。这首诗表达了许多美籍华人长期以来内心的压抑和愤慨，因此被评论为是多年来受到双重标准困扰的海外华人向西方偏见“射出的一记利箭”。该诗全文及翻译如下：

What Do You Really Want from Us?

When we were the sick man of Asia, we were called the yellow peril.

When we are billed to be the next superpower, we are called the threat.

When we closed our doors, you smuggled drugs to open markets.
