Yu, Henry (Associate Professor of History, Associate Professor of History, University of California, Los Angeles)

It reveals the influential role Asian Americans played in constructing the understandings of Asian American identity and also analyses the internment of Japanese Americans during the war and the subsequent "model minority" profile.
