内容説明・目次
内容説明
From San Francisco to New York, from Chicago to Los Angeles, this oral history of the Korean American community includes a wide spectrum of people and their stories; a half-Korean, half-African American man addresses the friction between blacks and Koreans; a gay activist talks about homosexuality and life as the son of an immigrant shop owner; and victims of domestic violence openly address this taboo subject. In all, more than 50 people - including a rapper, an array of artists, a Buddhist monk and several fundamentalist Christians - examine where and how they fit into American society. The book renders a portrait of a community grappling with intergenerational, gender and class differences, as well as tensions with other racial and ethnic communities. The authors also provide a concise overview of Korean-American history.
