The striking images in this book by the talented photographer George Lee provide a unique-- and intimate-- portrait of a Chinese American community in California that stretches back for more than sixty years. Born in 1922, Lee was raised in the last of Santa Cruz's Chinatowns. His early photographs from the 1930s captured the generation of Chinese American immigrants from the late nineteenth century who met with vigilante racism throughout California and were forced to live out the remainder of their lives in bachelor societies. Lee's stunning portraits provide them with a grace and dignity found in few other photographs from this era. A veteran of both World War II and the Korean War, Lee dedicated his life to photography and studiously explored his craft until his untimely death, at the age of 76, in 1998.

Haibun is haiku embedded in poetic prose; haiga is haiku painting. Increasingly these two manifestations of the haiku impulse, originating in Japan but spread across the whole of the globe, have captured the imaginations of writers and artists from a variety of genres. The result is an energetic exploration of how these forms might work in the many variants of English. This third volume of an annual series features the work of more than fifty artists and poets who are making these forms their own. The two previous volumes have won Haiku Society of America Merit Book awards for best haibun anthology.

Urban Odyssey written by Francine Cary and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1996 with Cultural pluralism categories.

The first book to focus on the migrant and immigrant experience in the District, Urban Odyssey traces the growth and transformation of ethnic and cultural communities - Native American, African American, European, Latino, and Asian American - throughout the city's history. Seventeen essays, accompanied by more than fifty photographs, challenge stereotypes and draw out common threads from the richly woven fabric that is Washington. Urban Odyssey reflects upon the changing demographics of contemporary urban America, where ethnic groups mingle and overlap in fertile and surprising ways. Identifying a common quest among all groups to establish community, to transplant cultural traditions, and to rebuild familiar social and institutional networks on unfamiliar terrain, the authors illustrate the diverse ways in which each migrant or immigrant community has reconstructed Washington's cultural and built landscape and redefined the meaning of American pluralism.
