"Koreans in America: History, Identity, and Community" carefully
documents and examines the shifts within the Korean American
communities over the past 100+ years. Using cutting-edge, original
essays from U.S. scholars and activists in a variety of fields,
this collection covers a wide range of topics relevant to the study
of Korean Americans. In addition to providing a historical
background, this text also explores changing demographics,
immigration patterns, identity, family, arts and culture, and
community and activism. Study questions are incorporated throughout
the text to encourage critical thinking and discussion among
students. Informational sidebars and cartoons are also used to
create an engaging reading experience. Koreans in America brings
"voice" to the histories, experiences, and changes happening among
Koreans in America today.Grace J. Yoo is a professor of Asian
