Publisher Synopsis
"At a moment when the national media are abuzz with predictions of a new era of post-racial politics, Fred Ho and Bill Mullen's anthology on the intersections of African and Asian Americans remind us of the complex ways that race has shaped and continues to shape our lives in this country. Afro Asia compiles a diverse set of essays that illuminate a repressed tradition, spanning the early 19th century onwards, of 'creative political and cultural resistance grounded in Afro-Asian collaboration and connectivity.'" -- Manan Desai * Against the Current * "Afro-Asia is a long overdue tribute to the long history of cross-ethnic intellectual connections, as well as a celebration of artistic collaborations, between African Americans and Asian Americans. . . . Fred Ho and Bill Mullen have produced a book that is groundbreaking in its intellectual rigor, as well as aesthetically pleasing. . . . Afro-Asia is highly recommended to anyone interested in how radical ideas and concepts travel through and across cultural boundaries and eventually bloom with new brilliance." -- Carol Huang * Journal of African American History * "Fred Ho and Bill V. Mullen have assembled a first-rate dossier of Afro-Asian work. It is equal parts lyrical and analytical. Flies like a butterfly; stings like a bee."-Vijay Prashad, author of Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting: Afro-Asian Connections and the Myth of Cultural Purity "Afro Asia preserves and promotes critical thinking and activism in a global culture. Here, with incisive writings from diverse intellectuals, artists, and activists, Fred Ho and Bill V. Mullen make a vital contribution towards liberation praxis that challenges the perceived permanence of manufactured distrust and division."-Joy James, author of Shadowboxing: Representations of Black Feminist Politics "At a moment when the national media are abuzz with predictions of a new era of post-racial politics, Fred Ho and Bill Mullen's anthology on the intersections of African and Asian Americans remind us of the complex ways that race has shaped and continues to shape our lives in this country.
