A revisão literária asiático-americana
A Asian American Literary Review é um espaço para escritores que consideram a designação “asiático-americano” um ponto de partida frutífero para a visão artística e a comunidade. Ao apresentar o trabalho de escritores estabelecidos e emergentes, a revista pretende incubar diálogos e, igualmente importante, abrir esses diálogos a públicos regionais, nacionais e internacionais de todos os círculos eleitorais. Ele seleciona trabalhos que são, como disse certa vez Marianne Moore, “uma expressão de nossas necessidades... [e] sentimentos, modificados pelos insights morais e técnicos do escritor”.
Publicado semestralmente, AALR apresenta ficção, poesia, não ficção criativa, arte em quadrinhos, entrevistas e resenhas de livros. O Descubra Nikkei apresentará histórias selecionadas de suas edições.

Those were the kinds of things that …

Read Part 1 >> Recently, in Minneapolis, Pangea World Theater presented Lebanese American writer Kathy Haddad’s Zafira: The Olive Oil Warrior, a work which imagines Arab and Muslim Americans being rounded up and interned in a manner similar to Japanese Americans in World War II.
