Making the Human

Race, Allegory, and Asian Americans

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Making the Human grapples with the interactions between narrative, materiality, and Asian American racialization. Examining contemporary debates over the role of Asian Americans in affirmative action, media representation, police brutality, and public health discourses, Sugino argues media and cultural narratives about Asian Americans shape contemporary ideas about humanity, justice, family, and nation in ways that naturalize hierarchy.
