Let's be clear: any label you give to a literature is destined to fail.
Oh, you say that's American Literature? Well, what's so American about it? Can you define what American literature is please? Why is it that people who work on race have to constantly DEFINE what it is they are doing? Is it out of some sort of backwards institutional hierarchy?
So, I'm having now to justify the nature of what Asian American literature is, if it is anything.
