解説

A collection of movement flashpoints and insurgent visions for Asian American activism
In the late 1960s, Asian American political activism emerged to unite disparate Asian diasporic communities living in the United States behind a radical political identity shaped by the Black Power and anti-imperialist movements of their times. Today, Asian Americans are more diverse, and, at times, more politically divided than ever before. In media and electoral politics, Asian Americans are celebrated as the fastest-growing racial demographic in the United States and claimed as evidence of racial progress. Yet the "rise" of Asian America rarely centers the coordinated forms of grassroots political organizing that Asian Americans have used to shape their place in society.
In Asian America Rising, Diane Wong and Mark Tseng-Putterman bring together an interdisciplinary group of established and emerging scholars of Asian American activism and politics, community organizers, artists, archivists, and others to highlight the diversity of twenty-first century Asian American political movements across a number of critical areas. Based on deep collaborations between scholars and frontline organizers, contributors like Diane Fujino, Vichet Chhuon, Lakshmi Sridaran, and Kim Compoc examine different facets of the Asian American political experience, including the impact of immigrant detention and deportation; the emergence of conservative Chinese American opposition to affirmative action in higher education; abolitionist perspectives on the Stop Asian Hate movement; and transnational resistance to U.S. economic and military dominance in Hawai'i, the Philippines, and Okinawa.
Ultimately, Wong and Tseng-Putterman show important shifts and emergent directions for Asian American politics in the twenty-first century. Focusing on grassroots mobilization and bold interventions beyond the formal political sphere, they shine a light on the diversity and power of Asian American political activism, cultural work, community building, mutual aid, and multiracial issue-based organizing.
