An illustrated companion book to the author’s documentary film about Asian-Americans in Hollywood films, starting with the silent era and moving through the Golden Age to the actors, writers, and directors of today.

The most articulated expression of Asian-American -- to be clear, specifically of East Asian descent -- anxiety, and how to transform this anxiety into a palpable bridge to other oppressed groups and true self-liberation. Cast off the shackles of capitalist drive at the expense of the moral and political. Yes, yes, yes!
