The new Chinatown

1st ed.

by

  • 9 Want to read

Newspapers today are filled with stories of corruption and strife in America's Chinatowns, reversing the popular view of Chinese Americans as a model minority of law-abiding, hard-working people whose diligent children end up in high-tech jobs. In The New Chinatown, Peter Kwong goes beyond the headlines in a compelling and detailed account of the political and cultural isolation of Chinese-American communities.

This new edition offers a revised and updated text as well as a new chapter on Chinatown in the 1990s.
