Description
This book examines the tensions that emerged between Asian American racial identity formation and the establishment of organized urban community in Cleveland. Moving from 1943 to the present, Rebecca Jo Kinney relates the history of Asian Americans' lived experiences, community formation, and their role in urban development and change in the Midwest - a region whose scholarly and popular literature often overlooks their population.
