Iconic photographs feature protests against police brutality in New York in the 1970s, a Sikh man draped in an American flag after 9/11, and a reenactment of the completion of the transcontinental railroad of 1869 featuring descendants of Chinese railroad workers, and his last photos of community life and struggle during the coronavirus pandemic. Essays by writers, artists, activists, and friends of Lee--including filmmaker Reňe Tajima-Pęa, writer Helen Zia, photographer Alan Chin, historian Gordon Chang, playwright David Henry Hwang, and photographer Alan Chin -- give greater context to each chapter's major themes and include reflections on their on their relationships with Lee. Featuring never-before-seen photographs alongside his best-known images, Corky Lee's Asian America represents Lee's mission to chronicle a history of inclusion, resistance, ethnic pride, and patriotism. This is a remarkable documentation of vital moments in Asian American history and a timely reminder that it's also a history that we continue to make."-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 770.8995 Le Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 770.8995 Le in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 770.8995 Le Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 770.8995 Le Checked out 05/11/2024 Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 770.8995 Le in Processing   Add Copy to MyList
