People of Asian descent have lived for centuries in North and South
America, where they have been actively involved in the creation of
multicultural, multiethnic societies. This groundbreaking anthology
explores their experiences among ethnic and cultural groups in a
unique collection of works by and about Asian Americans. Utilizing
a rich blend of analytical, autobiographical, biographical, and
narrative essays, oral histories, fiction, photography, and
artwork, the anthology focuses especially on the interactions of
Asians with others outside the dominant culture. Contributors range
from established scholars, writers and artists to little-known
voices heard here for the first time. Scholars of Asian diasporas
and all readers interested in Asia in the Americas will find this
book an extraordinary resource. Contributions by: Kozy K. Amemiya,
