Synopsis

Without minimizing White racism or other forms of Western social ills, and without criticizing or passing judgements on Asian-American, Hall (human ecology and social work, Michigan State U.) offers some insight into the implications of skin color for Asian-Americans, demonstrating a form of interaction among those who would otherwise be considered post-colonial victims. Among the dimensions he explores are the sport of color, psychological colonization, the bleaching syndrome, a survey of Asian's color bias in the Philippines, what Asian-American women say, Eurasian identity, racism though skin color, and beyond race. The text is double spaced. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
