"The Rising Tide of Color" challenges familiar narratives of race
in American history that all too often present the U.S. state as a
benevolent force in struggles against white supremacy, especially
in the South. Featuring a wide range of scholars specializing in
American history and ethnic studies, this powerful collection of
essays highlights historical moments and movements on the Pacific
Coast and across the Pacific to reveal a different story of race
and politics. From labor and anticolonial activists around World
War I and multiracial campaigns by anarchists and communists in the
1930s to the policing of race and sexuality after World War II and
transpacific movements against the Vietnam War, The Rising Tide of
Color brings to light histories of race, state violence, and
radical movements that continue to shape our world in the
twenty-first century.

"This brilliant volume is incisive, intellectually generative,
and analytically rigorous. The Rising Tide of Color reframes our
understanding of race and social movements by centering the Pacific
Coast." -Diane Fujino, professor of Asian American Studies at
University of California, Santa Barbara
