But even to the first generation of Asian Americans born in the US after that milestone, it would have been impossible to imagine that sushi and boba would one day be beloved by all, that a Korean boy band named BTS would be the biggest musical act in the world, that one of the most acclaimed and popular movies of 2018 would be Crazy Rich Asians, or that we would have an Asian American Vice President. And that's not even mentioning the creators, performers, entrepreneurs, executives, and influencers who have been making all this happen, behind the scenes and on the screen; or the activists and representatives continuing to fight for equity, building coalitions, and defiantly holding space for our voices and concerns. And still: Asian America is just getting started.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe timing could not be better for this intimate, eye-opening, and frequently hilarious guided tour through the history, culture, and experiences of Asian Americans. From the early days of immigration and the struggles of integration to the rise of Asian American pop culture and the political empowerment of the community, RISE offers a comprehensive and engaging exploration of the rich and diverse tapestry of Asian American life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten with humor, insight, and a deep appreciation for the complexities of identity, RISE is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the history, culture, and experiences of Asian Americans.
