Recenzii

"Stacey Lee is one of the most powerful and influential scholarly voices to challenge the 'model minority' stereotype. Here in its second edition, Lee's book offers an additional paradigm to explain the barriers to educating young Asian Americans in the 21st century - xenoracism (i.e., racial discrimination against immigrant minorities) intersecting with issues of social class." - Xue Lan Rong, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill "Breaking important new theoretical and empirical ground, this revised edition is a must read for anyone interested in Asian American youth, race/ethnicity, and processes of transnational migration in the 21st century." - Lois Weis, State University of New York Distinguished Professor "Clear, accessible, and significantly updated.... The book's core lesson is as relevant today as it was when the first edition was published, presenting an urgent call to dismantle the dangerous stereotypes that continue to structure inequality in 21st century America." - Teresa L. McCarty, Alice Wiley Snell Professor of Education Policy Studies, Arizona State University "Sure to stimulate further research in this area and will be of interest to teachers, teacher educators, researchers, and students alike." - Teachers College Record "A must read for those interested in a different approach in understanding our racial experience beyond the stale and repetitious polemics that so often dominate the public debate." - The Journal of Asian Studies "Well written and jargon-free, this book...documents genuinely candid views from Asian-American students, often laden with their own prejudices and ethnocentrism." - MultiCultural Review"
