Publisher's Synopsis

An essential collection that brings together the core primary texts of the Asian American experience in one volume

"A vital, up-to-date collection of critical sources that shed new insight into the lives of diverse Asian Americans, past and present."-Erika Lee, author of The Making of Asian America: A History

An essential volume for the growing academic discipline of Asian American studies, this collection of core primary texts draws from a wide range of fields, from law to visual culture to politics, covering key historical and cultural developments that enable students to engage directly with the Asian American experience over the past century. The primary sources, organized around keywords, often concern multiple hemispheres and movements, making this compendium valuable for a number of historical, ethnic, and cultural study undergraduate programs.
