An innovative anthology showcasing Asian American and Pacific Islander women's histories
Our Voices, Our Histories brings together thirty-five Asian American and Pacific Islander authors in a single volume to explore the historical experiences, perspectives, and actions of Asian American and Pacific Islander women in the United States and beyond. This volume is unique in exploring Asian American and Pacific Islander women's lives along local, transnational, and global dimensions. The contributions present new research on diverse aspects of Asian American and Pacific Islander women's history, from the politics of language, to the role of food, to experiences as adoptees, mixed race, and second generation, while acknowledging shared experiences as women of color in the United States. Our Voices, Our Histories showcases how new approaches in US history, Asian American and Pacific Islander studies, and Women's and Gender studies inform research on Asian American and Pacific Islander women. Attending to the collective voices of the women themselves, the volume seeks to transform current understandings of Asian American and Pacific Islander women's histories.Languages:EnglishPublisher:New York University PressISBN-13:9781479877010ISBN-10:1479877018UPC:9781479877010Book Category:Social ScienceBook Subcategory:Women's Studies, Ethnic StudiesBook Topic:AmericanSize:10.00 x 7.00 x 1.00 inchesWeight:1.9Product ID:SC4N0R8H9G
