My father's father was Filipino-Chinese...My father's mother was
African American-Native American...My mother's father was
German-Danish...My mother's mother was German...I was born in
Brooklyn, New York, but I grew up in Japan...For once it's not just
black and white. In this compelling chronicle of his journey
through life as a multicultural and multiethnic American, Teja
Arboleda uniquely and personally challenges institutionalized
notions of race, culture, ethnicity, and class. Arboleda has
presented his story around the United States through his one-man
performance-lecture Ethnic Man! Now, in this book, he fleshes out
the depth of his experience as a culturally and racially mixed
American, illustrating throughout the enigma of cultural and racial
identity and the American identity crisis. To facilitate its use as
a course text, In the Shadow of Race is offered with a Teacher's
Guide written by Christine Clark. Topics for discussion include: *
the social construction of race; * racial separatism vs. diversity;
* racial, ethnic, and cultural identity development; * the politics
of racial categorization; * mixed "race" peoples; * cultural
identity vs. identity by heritage; * the concept of a "cultural
home;" and * changing identities within cultures.
