Asian American/Pacific Islanders and Native Hawaiian women represent one of the fastest-growing and most diverse populations of women in the United States. Asian Americans represent a number of groups, including women from Vietnamese, Korean, Asian Indian, Japanese, Filipino, Cambodian, Laotian, and Chinese descent. Among Pacific Islanders are women who are Hawaiian, Samoan, Guamanian, Tongan, and Fijian. So, this population has a vast array of languages and cultures. Some of these women are 4th and 5th generation Asian Americans, while 75% are recent immigrants and refugees. Native Hawaiians and American Samoans are part of the Asian-American population, but they are native to this country, not immigrants.

    Extractions: Cineaste Publishers Inc. Used in the UCB Media Resources Web site with permission. What is Asian American Cinema, anyway?" The question came from a colleague in the discussion group that had formed to discuss a film and video series I had programmed for the Institute for Cinema and Culture at the University of Iowa, and the question was directed at me. "What are you going to say in your article," asked the filmmakers who knew I was attempting to answer this question. "How are you defining Asian American Cinema?," asked my friends on other campuses, themselves struggling to answer the same question. "I don't know," I replied. "The only thing I do know is that my students are helping me to redefine 'Asian American Cinema' every week, and I'm sure that any answer I give today I will abandon before the end of the semester." The term 'Asian American Cinema,' which includes works in video and film, implies first of all that there is such a thing as Asian American Culture. But is there such a thing as a unified Asian American Culture? Of course, the term culture is itself a slippery one - is there such a thing as American Culture, for example? Europeans might say yes; many Americans, especially people of color, would say no.

Jin-Ha is smart, but it doesn't come naturally to her, and having a bad teacher just makes matters worse. But when she lies to her immigrant parents about the F on her test, will a bully turn friend? And will Jin-Ha ever manage to set things right? A sweet, fairly quiet, sometimes funny novel. Ages 10-up.
