The present study sought to explore and understand (i) the experiences, opportunities, and challenges of autistic students in HE in Singapore; and (ii) non-autist…

Aiiieeeee!
In the eyes of mid-twentieth-century white America, “Aiiieeeee!” was the one-dimensional cry from Asian Americans, their singular expression of all emotions—it signified and perpetuated the idea of Asian Americans as inscrutable, foreign, self-hating, undesirable, and obedient. In this anthology first published in 1974, Frank Chin, Jeffery Chan, Lawson Inada, and Shawn Wong reclaimed that shout, outlining the history of Asian American literature …
The Birth of Wallace Lin
You know you've been around a long time when you realize you can catalog your place among literary multicultural trivia: My picture is in Ishmael Reed's novel, Mumbo Jumbo, I met Frank Chin when I was a nineteen-year-old junior at UC Berkeley and he bought me my first cappuccino, the main character in Kay Boyle's novel, The Underground Woman, thinks of me by name and quotes from my novel, Homebase, while sitting in prison, and I've known Leslie S…

“Is Ethnicity Obsolete?”
So what is ethnicity, and who is ethnic? I teach a course at the University of California at Berkeley, and I have encouraged students to write from the experience of their ethnic background. I have mostly American-European students who, when given this assignment, often write stories about a “black” person. So I guess in the United States, ethnicity is interchangeable with being black. In other words, “blacks” are the only ethnic group in the Uni…

State of the city,” from Trek (1942)
A friend of ours was born in Topaz. Like many others at the time, her parents had married hastily, just before the forced evacuation, so they would not be separated in different relocation camps. During her three-year stay in camp her mother had carefully saved every issue of the camp journal, ironically titled Trek. When the war was over she could not take the journals with her because the “evacuees” could only take what they could carry, and th…

Aiieeeee! an introduction to Asian-American writing
Asian-Americans are not one people but several, Chinese-Americans, Japanese-Americans, and Filipino-Americans. Chinese and Japanese Americans have been separated by geography, culture, and history from China and Japan for seven and four generations respectively. They have evolved cultures and sensibilities distinctly not Chinese or Japanese and distinctly not white American. Even the Asian languages as they exist today in America have been adjust…
