可可爱爱的青春期的挣扎、反叛和(其实也不一定是东亚式的?)母女之间的相爱相杀。虽然有些部分有些低幼和生硬(就是感觉更像给小朋友看的教育片),但故事非常成立:一个住在多伦多的华裔三代,有亲近的朋友和追男团时候的星星眼,并且在探索做自己的道路上学会了和要自己的各个面相处,而非一味追求完美,多好呀!

The Making of Asian America 豆瓣 Goodreads
作者: Erika Lee Simon & Schuster 2015 - 9 其它标题: The Making of Asian America: A History
The definitive history of Asian Americans by one of the nation’s preeminent scholars on the subject.
In the past fifty years, Asian Americans have helped change the face of America and are now the fastest growing group in the United States. But as award-winning historian Erika Lee reminds us, Asian Americans also have deep roots in the country. The Making of Asian America tells the little-known history of Asian Americans and their role in American life, from the arrival of the first Asians in the Americas to the present-day.
An epic history of global journeys and new beginnings, this book shows how generations of Asian immigrants and their American-born descendants have made and remade Asian American life in the United States: sailors who came on the first trans-Pacific ships in the 1500s; indentured “coolies” who worked alongside African slaves in the Caribbean; and Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Korean, and South Asian immigrants who were recruited to work in the United States only to face massive racial discrimination, Asian exclusion laws, and for Japanese Americans, incarceration during World War II. Over the past fifty years, a new Asian America has emerged out of community activism and the arrival of new immigrants and refugees. No longer a “despised minority,” Asian Americans are now held up as America’s “model minorities” in ways that reveal the complicated role that race still plays in the United States.
Published to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the passage of the United States’ Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 that has remade our “nation of immigrants,” this is a new and definitive history of Asian Americans. But more than that, it is a new way of understanding America itself, its complicated histories of race and immigration, and its place in the world today.

也是匆匆听过。作者很努力地尝试囊括各种亚裔,除了东亚三国也包括了越南、印度、Hmong等,对我来说最“新鲜”的部分还是开头的在南美(尤其是古巴和秘鲁)的亚裔劳工/苦力史实,串联起了美洲大陆的故事。

Minor Feelings 豆瓣 Goodreads Goodreads
8.6 (22 个评分) 作者: Cathy Park Hong One World 2020 - 2
Poet and essayist Cathy Park Hong fearlessly and provocatively blends memoir, cultural criticism, and history to expose fresh truths about racialized consciousness in America. Part memoir and part cultural criticism, this collection is vulnerable, humorous, and provocative—and its relentless and riveting pursuit of vital questions around family and friendship, art and politics, identity and individuality, will change the way you think about our world.
Binding these essays together is Hong’s theory of “minor feelings.” As the daughter of Korean immigrants, Cathy Park Hong grew up steeped in shame, suspicion, and melancholy. She would later understand that these “minor feelings” occur when American optimism contradicts your own reality—when you believe the lies you’re told about your own racial identity. Minor feelings are not small, they’re dissonant—and in their tension Hong finds the key to the questions that haunt her.
With sly humor and a poet’s searching mind, Hong uses her own story as a portal into a deeper examination of racial consciousness in America today. This intimate and devastating book traces her relationship to the English language, to shame and depression, to poetry and female friendship. A radically honest work of art, Minor Feelings forms a portrait of one Asian American psyche—and of a writer’s search to both uncover and speak the truth.

听的作者本人读的有声书。Such an agonized pursuit of liberation and poignant caption of the self-hatred of Asian Americans. “In the popular imagination, Asian Americans inhabit a vague purgatorial status: not white enough nor black enough; distrusted by African Americans, ignored by whites, unless we’re being used by whites to keep the black man down."

有句讲句,作为rom-com已经蛮出色了,撇开亚裔representation的问题,都算是这个类别电影里比较出彩的了,笑点节奏不错,亚裔和亚洲梗都还算走心,选角上除了男主(不够帅啊!)都很出彩,Awkwafina,Ken Jeong和欧阳承包了大量笑料,杨紫琼Constance Wu和Gemma Chan也是很合适。开头回到新加坡的段落还让我看出了想家的气氛也不知道怎么回事。可全程的中文歌配乐都很让人出戏,结尾的HE和大趴也相对败笔。家庭和美国个人主义(follow your passion)的冲突也抓得不错啊。还好看完约了人直接大吃了一顿Nyonya,全程都看得好饿。

对这本书情绪复杂,长期有关于structure/culture/agency的纠结,虽然Lee和Zhou努力挖掘了大加州华人二代移民的“成功”的各种结构性因素,但是怎么读都觉得success frame隐隐还是一种文化解释,多少有点觉得虚伪。当然我导师觉得她们的结构解释还是很成功的= =
