Confronting the cultural stereotypes that have been attached to Asian-Americans over the last 150 years, this title seizes the label "Oriental" and asks where it came from. It shows how the bewildering array of racialized images first proffered by music hall songsters and social commentators have evolved and become generalized to Asian-Americans.
