“To me, Asian American was a messy, arbitrary category, but one that was produced by a collective struggle. It was a category capacious enough for all of our hopes and energies. There were similarities that cut across nationality and class: the uncommunicative parents, the cultural significance of food, the fact that we all took our shoes off at home.”

Really enjoying it so far - drawing a lot of parallels to my own experiences as a slightly rebellious second gen asian american college student.
