Drawing on in-depth interviews, this text examines how Asian
American teachers in the US have adapted, persisted, and resisted
racial stereotyping and systematic marginalization throughout their
educational and professional pathways. Utilizing critical
perspectives combined with tenets of Asian Critical Race Theory,
Kim and Hsieh structure their findings through chapters focused on
issues relating to anti-essentialism, intersectionality, and the
broader social and historical positioning of Asians in the US.
Applying a critical theoretical lens to the study of Asian American
teachers demonstrates the importance of this framework in
understanding educators' experiences during schooling, training,
and teaching, and in doing so, the book highlights the need to
ensure visibility for a community so often overlooked as a "model
minority", and yet one of the fastest growing racial groups in the
US. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and educators
with an interest in the sociology of education, multicultural
education, and teachers and teacher education more broadly. Those
specifically interested in Asian American history and the study of
race and ethics within Asian studies will also benefit from this
book.
