Wu offers a unique perspective on how changing ideas of racial identity will affect race relations in the twenty-first century. Wu examines affirmative action, globalization, immigration, and other controversial contemporary issues through the lens of the Asian-American experience. Mixing personal anecdotes, legal cases, and journalistic reporting, Wu confronts damaging Asian-American stereotypes such as &#8220;the model minority&#8221; and &#8220;the perpetual foreigner.&#8221; By offering new ways of thinking about race in American society, Wu&#8217;s work dares us to make good on our great democratic experiment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1.
