Forever Foreigners or Honorary Whites?: The Asian Ethnic Experience Today
"A compelling account of the ongoing acculturation of West Coast Asian Americans and their continuing experience of racism. Mia Tuan uses her sociological skills to paint a disturbing portrait of the hidden and not-so-hidden injuries of race suffered by Californians who have not been here for many generations, as well as an early warning of what the future might hold for some of our newest immigrants."  --Herbert Gans, Robert S. Lynd Professor of Sociology, Columbia University"This well-written book advances our understanding of the changing and situational construction of American and ethnic identities by exploring the ways in which multigenerational Asian Americans constitute, express, and transform their identities."  --Yen Le Espiritu, author ofAsian American Women and Men: Labor, Laws and Love
