Overview
Even in the midst of a nationwide surge of bias and incidents against them, Asians from coast to coast have quietly assumed mastery of the nationās technical and intellectual machinery and become essential American workers. Yet, theyāve been forced to do so in the face of policy proposalsāwritten in the name of diversityāexcluding them from the upper ranks of the elite.
In An Inconvenient Minority, journalist Kenny Xu traces elite Americaās longstanding unease about a minority potentially upending them. Leftist agendas, such as eliminating standardized testing, doling out racial advantages to āpreferredā minorities, and lumping Asians into āprivilegedā categories despite their deprived historical experiences have spurred Asian Americans to act.
Going beyond the Students for Fair Admission (SFFA) v. Harvard case, Xu unearths the skewed logic rippling countrywide, from Mayor Bill de Blasioās attempted makeover of New York Cityās Specialized School programs to the battle over ādiversityā quotas in Googleās and Facebookās progressive epicenters, to the rise of Asian American activism in response to unfair perceptions and admission practices.
Asian Americansā time is now, as they increase their direct action and amplify their voices in the face of mounting anti-Asian attacks. An Inconvenient Minority chronicles the political and economic repression and renaissance of a long ignored racial identity groupāand how they are central to reversing Americaās cultural decline and preserving the dynamism of the free world.
