Making and Remaking Asian America - Paperback
by Bill Ong Hing (Author)
This is the first comprehensive study of how U. S. immigration policies have shaped-demographically, economically, and socially-the six largest Asian American communities.
The history of Asian Americans is both a tale of hope and opportunity, as well as menial labor, prejudice, and a hostile legal system. . . . The author analyzes how U.S. immigration policies and laws have shaped Asian American communities. . . . Limited to the six largest groups--Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Asian Indian, Korean, and Vietnamese--the study includes the effects of immigration laws on Asian American attitudes towards education, political participation, and self-identity. . . . This is a commendable and gripping 'read' promoting a better understanding of the 150 years of Asian American experiences.--Choice.
