Synopsis

An all-new collection of fascinating interviews with students, lawyers, engineers, politicians, stay-at-home moms and activists, this book reveals a rich mosaic of Asian American identities. Candid and compelling, these Terkelesque interviews reveal intimate and at times conflicting thoguhts and feelings about race and identity; immigration and American cultures; the self in relation to family and community; relationships; school and work; and professional and educational achievement.
