The second edition of Unraveling the ""Model Minority Stereotype: Listening to Asian American Youth"" extends Stacey Lee's groundbreaking research on the educational experiences and achievement of Asian American youth. Lee provides a comprehensive update of social science research to reveal the ways in which the larger structures of race and class play out in the lives of Asian American high school students, especially regarding presumptions that the educational experiences of Koreans, Chinese, and Hmong youth are all largely the same. In her detailed and probing ethnography, Lee presents the experiences of these students in their own words, providing an authentic insider perspective on identity and inter ethnic relations in an often misunderstood American community. This second edition is essential reading for anyone interested in Asian American youth and their experiences in U.S. schools.
Stacey J. Lee is Professor of Educational Policy Studies at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. She is the author of Up Against Whiteness: Race, School, and Immigrant Youth.
