Korean American 1951-Present Chinese American Japanese American Filipino American Korean American ... Southeast Asian American This bibliography was prepared originally in 1995 at the request of Dr. Sari Miller-Antonio, Associate Professor of Anthropology and Ethnic Studies for use in her classes: Contemporary Asian American Studies and Asian American Images in the Arts and Media . It continues to be updated semi-annually. This bibliography represents primarily fiction written by Asian American writers and is divided into two parts: pre 1950 and post 1950 literature. This division reflects the history of Asian immigration patterns to the US and the growth of Asian American communities. Students in Dr. Miller-Antonio's classes are asked to choose one book from the early literature and one from the post World War II literature and prepare a critical analysis that discusses how the book illustrates the history of Asian immigration to the US or how it explores topics such as representation of Asian American women, ethnicity and identity of self, family and community.

080 (Spring 1985): 29-33 To the Editor Search Table of Contents Previous Article ... Next Article No Works Cited ASIAN AMERICAN LITERATURE: A BRIEF INTRODUCTION AND SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY Amy Ling ASIAN American literature is the newest and the smallest branch of American literature because Asian Americans, compared to the other racial minorities in the United States, are relative newcomers. The Chinese, the Asian group longest in America, first arrived in sizable numbers in the mid 1840s, while the Vietnamese are among the most recent immigrants. Nonetheless, Asian Americans have produced literature here, both works in Asian languages, which are accessible to few, and works in English, which have generally been ignored and forgotten. Partly on the coattails of the black nationalist movement and partly as a reaction to the Vietnam War, the third war in Asia in three decades, literary scholars of Asian descent became sufficiently aroused and curious enough to unearth the legacy of their past. In 1972 Kai-yu Hsu, a distinguished scholar of Chinese literature, and Helen Palubinskas published a slim anthology, Asian American Authors , the first collection of its kind, which brought to light two generations of American writers from three Asian traditions. In 1974 two additional anthologies appeared:

99. Asian American Voices For Affirmative Action By Paul Rockwell - In Motion Magazi asian American support for affirmative action is growing. Nevertheless, theFilipino American community must join the African American and Latino http://www.inmotionmagazine.com/rockasn.html

Asian American Voices for Affirmative Action by Paul Rockwell Oakland, California In a flip remark last June, University of California (UC) Regents Ward Connerly said: "I would be quite comfortable with only white and Asian students at UC, I have no problem with that." It was Henry Der, Chair of Chinese for Affirmative Action who took Connerly and Pete Wilson to task. In his eloquent address to the UC Regents, August 20th, Der said: "If Asian American students were to attend certain UC campuses that are exclusively Asian and white, such segregated education would not prepare Asian American students to assume leadership positions in a multiracial California society. As a parent, I do not want any of my three children to experience or choose a segregated college education." Pete Wilson's attempt to foment hostility between Asian American and African American communities has already backfired. Asian American support for affirmative action is growing. Throughout California's communities of color there is an awakened sense that an injury to one is an injury to all. Filipinos for Affirmative Action, the Asian Law Caucus, the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance; Kimi Lee, Executive Director of tbe University of California Student Association; and Eddie Wong, Western Region Rainbow Coalition Director, are playing an active role in defending affirmative action for America.

It's free! Save it. She believes that out there, somewhere, in the machine rooms of the universe, there exists a small cross wire.... Everything is connected, weirdly connected. - Gish Jen (Mona in the Promised Land 108) Assuming that neural cross wiring does lie at the root of synesthesia ... perhaps a mutation causes connections between brain areas that are usually segregated. Or maybe the mutation leads to defective pruning of preexisting connections between areas that are normally connected only sparsely.... So we now speak in terms of cross activation. For instance, neighboring brain regions often inhibit one another's activity, which serves to minimize cross talk. A chemical imbalance of some kind that reduces such inhibition-for example, by blocking the action of an inhibitory neurotransmitter or failing to produce an inhibitor-would also cause activity in one area to elicit activity in a neighbor. Such cross activation could, in theory, also occur between widely separated areas.
