A most welcome addition to the literature on the state of race in twenty-first-century America."Yén Lê Espiritu, University of California, San Diego"In this timely new edition of their invaluable examination of what it means to be Asian American, social scientists Dhingra and Rodriguez apply their intersectional lens to pressing contemporary issues, from systemic inequities to Dreamers and social media.
