El. knyga: Chinese and Any Other Asian: Exploring East and South East Asian Identity in Britain

'Gave me company in some of my feelings that I've felt alone with for years, if not my whole life...vital reading, but also vital in the truest sense - real, alive, full of humanity, interrogatory, empathetic, energising' * Claire Kohda, author of WOMAN, EATING * An important, vital, and illuminating read. It deserves to be widely shared and read for its incredibly well-researched, personal, and direct exploration of society, racism, culture, food, the hypersexualisation of ESEA women, and gendered violence... A true must-read. * Angela Hui, author of Takeaway: Stories from a Childhood Behind the Counter * Rigorous, revelatory and radical, Chinese and Any Other Asian is both a fascinating social history and a timely invitation to have better conversations about culture and ethnicity. Bold and necessary. * Jimi Famurewa, author of SETTLERS: Journeys Through the Food, Faith and Culture of Black African London * Chinese and Any Other Asian is a revelatory look at the complexity of identity: rarely, if ever, can it be contained to a box ticked on an official form. Through interviews, research, and personal narrative, Anna Sulan Masing paints a complex, nuanced, and absorbing portrait of what it means to be mixed-with food, gender, and labor concerns as throughlines-whose ideas and critiques can be applied well beyond the shores of Britain. * Alicia Kennedy, author of No Meat Required *
