Asian Pacific Islander Adult & Young Adult Nonfiction

The most articulated expression of Asian-American -- to be clear, specifically of East Asian descent -- anxiety, and how to transform this anxiety into a palpable bridge to other oppressed groups and true self-liberation. Cast off the shackles of capitalist drive at the expense of the moral and political. Yes, yes, yes!

Explores the new focus on relationships, personal growth, and cultural success, replacing the preoccupation with professional status and money.
