You're painting with a broad brush there. Yes, different cultures have generally different parenting styles, the Asian academic pressure is real, Asia is a big place though. Are we saying everyone with Asian ancestry has been pressed to get straight 'A's all their life? What about the white kids who grew up to get straight 'A's? There's probably a few blacks who didn't grow up in the ghetto stealing cars (I'm pretty sure!).
Different cultures have developed their own way for reasons, culture is the result of environment. The expectations you listed are indeed stereotypes about parenting styles, and the worldview of cultures has been gradually shaped for generations. Certainly some cultures prize intellect or societal standing over others, and some cultures are more accepting of teen pregnancies, those will interplay with the education of that culture's population.
There are large populations of people who adhere to the identities and expectations of their cultural heritage, but there aren't fences holding people in. Culture continues to change as our communication increases, and we all get to see what works, as it changes our collective worldview.
Racism is the issue right now because there is a lot of money and power at stake, and dividing people up and playing sides is how they can benefit. They like to perpetuate all the stereotypes about these cultures, and proliferate the divisive ideas. Media men sensationalize news and drive the false narratives that they're paid to. Con men rake in money while agitating race relations.
Remember we all bleed red so we must all be equal!

That's not true, all men are created equal.
