Margins and Mainstreams by Gary Y Okihiro

While exploring anew the meanings of Asian American social history, this title argues that the core values and ideals of the nation emanate today not from the so-called mainstream but from the margins, from among Asian and African Americans, Latinos and American Indians, women, and the gay and lesbian community.

"A concise, highly readable, and state-of-the-art reflection on Asian American history by one of its leading scholars"

* Western Historical Quarterly *

"A convenient summary that deftly synthesizes recent scholarship exploring the intersections of race, ethnicity, gender, class, and culture among Asian Americans in the U.S. This stimulating and sophisticated treatment, written by a mature scholar, is well worth reading."

* Choice *

Gary Y. Okihiro is emeritus professor of international and public affairs at Columbia University.
