| Abstract
|
:
|
"The first half of the twentieth century witnessed a wave of Filipino immigration to the United States, following in the footsteps of earlier Chinese and Japanese immigrants, the first and second "Asiatic invasions." Perceived as alien because of their Asian ethnicity yet legally defined as American nationals granted more rights than other immigrants, Filipino American national identity was built upon the shifting sands of contradiction, ambiguity, and hostility ... Weaving together an impressive range of materials - including newspapers, government reports, legal documents and archival sources - into a seamless narrative, Baldoz illustrates how the anomalous status of Filipinos played a significant role in transforming the politics of race, immigration and nationality in the United States."--Book cover.
