Rise: A Pop History of Asian America from the Nineties to Now by Philip Wang, Jeff Yang, Phil Yu

5.0

A great way to learn about the evolution of Asian American presence in pop culture. Some of it was a blast from the past, but a lot of what was stuff I was never aware of. The graphics were catchy, and the writing was well done, keeping me interested even when it covered things I wasn't that interested in (like hip-hop and rap). One of the things that I loved about the book was that it didn't certain around a specific group of Asians but really encompassed everyone under the AAPI banner.
