“A strident critique of critical race theory” that examines how policies of diversity and inclusion have ill-served Asian Americans (Kirkus Reviews). From a journalist on the frontlines of the Students for Fair Admission (SFFA) v. Harvard case comes a probing examination of affirmative action, the false narrative of American meritocracy, and the attack on Asian American excellence with its far-reaching implications—from seedy test-prep centers to gleaming gifted-and-talented magnet schools, to top colleges and elite business, media, and political positions across America. Even in the midst of a nationwide surge of bias and incidents against them, Asians from coast to coast have quietly assumed mastery of the nation’s technical and intellectual machinery and become essential American workers. Yet, they’ve been forced to do so in the face of policy proposals—written in the name of diversity—excluding them from the upper ranks of the elite. In An Inconvenient Minority, journalist Kenny Xu traces elite America’s longstanding unease about a minority potentially upending them. Leftist agendas, such as eliminating standardized testing, doling out racial advantages to “preferred” minorities, and lumping Asians into “privileged” categories despite their deprived historical experiences have spurred Asian Americans to act. Going beyond the Students for Fair Admission (SFFA) v. Harvard case, Xu unearths the skewed logic rippling countrywide, from Mayor Bill de Blasio’s attempted makeover of New York City’s Specialized School programs to the battle over “diversity” quotas in Google’s and Facebook’s progressive epicenters, to the rise of Asian American activism in response to unfair perceptions and admission practices. Asian Americans’ time is now, as they increase their direct action and amplify their voices in the face of mounting anti-Asian attacks. An Inconvenient Minority chronicles the political and economic repression and renaissance of a long ignored racial identity group—and how they are central to reversing America’s cultural decline and preserving the dynamism of the free world. Praise for An Inconvenient Minority “Contending that the social advancement of ‘the Asian American community’ in spite of historic discrimination ‘directly challenge[s] the Leftist narrative of minority victimhood,’ Xu claims that Asian Americans have been left out of conversations about ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion’ because they suffer from persistent stereotypes and lack the kind of ‘cultural capital’ necessary to make their struggles visible to the mainstream. . . . Xu raises intriguing questions about the place of Asian Americans in U.S. society.” —Publishers Weekly

This novel is inspired by the true story of my ancestor who was born to a Danish father and an African mother on the Guinea or West Coast of Africa in the 1800’s. After his father leaves Africa, he has this idea to go to Denmark to visit him. He is thrown overboard shortly after the ship sets sail and he ends up two countries over in the country of Benin. His story is told when he makes his way back to his hometown Keta and is part of the legends of the bravery and exploits of our ancestors. Though this novel is a fictional account of what happened to my ancestor, the timelines stating the onset of colonization, the historical events in the Caribbean and Europe are accurate. This is a really a fictional story is woven around historically accurate events. In 1850, when Hans Køndo Quist, Kø, decides to leave his family in Quitta, a small town on the Guinea (West) Coast of Africa, to visit his Danish father in Denmark, he causes a major pandemonium! He braves the discrimination and malice of his foes, herculean hurricanes, and backbreaking labor aboard the ship, “The Pharaoh”. But a beautiful blue-eyed vixen causes him to be thrown overboard. He finds himself between the devil and the deep, blue sea when he wakes up on an Island in the Caribbean, in the shanty of a young, exotic prostitute, Daffodil. Kø, Daffodil and some recently emancipated slaves whom he meets on the Island are desperate for one thing ... to leave the island and achieve true freedom. There is only one person who can help them get off the Island...Daffodil’s lover, a red-haired Scottish pirate with a nefarious agenda! By masterful planning, guerrilla warfare and outright war, they intercept pirates’ plans, steal his ship and he finally finds the truth about his birth and the circumstances of his father’s seeming abandonment.

Original, Unconventional & Inconvenient is an analysis of the Donald J. Trump administration and its impact on America’s culture, both party establishments, and a strong but bitterly divided nation. The Trump years were so full of controversy that many observers failed to digest the meaning and impact of the “Make America Great Again” movement. Original, Unconventional & Inconvenient delves into the historic wake-up call that was the Trump administration—and how its leader popularized a uniquely American brand of 21st century populism.

Preferential Education Policies in Multi-ethnic China: National Rhetoric, Local Realities explores the cultural logic of China’s preferential policy measures. Similar in premise but different in practice and philosophy to American affirmative action, the preferential policies evoke controversy on all sides: from those who see the measures as insufficient to address problems of educational disparities between ethnic groups, and from those who see the measures as "reverse discrimination." Yamada shows how the policy measures attempt to manage ethnic-based contradictions and appease both majority and minority populations.

A medical scandal is currently unfolding across Western liberal societies. As Parents with Inconvenient Truths about Trans reveals, the primary victims are vulnerable, socially awkward kids with normally developing bodies who fall for the Internet-fueled promise that they can solve their emotional, psychological, or physical discomfort by adopting an opposite-sex identity. With deep reservations about the new gender orthodoxy that informs this promise and the irreversible one-size-fits-all medical prescription that comes with it, the parent contributors to this anthology share deeply personal stories about transition and desistance that won't be told at the gender clinic. They also offer practical advice based on hard-earned experience that won't be found in mainstream media. Whether progressive or conservative, gay or straight, secular or religious, they all share the aim of protecting children from the physical and emotional harms of the gender industry and seek to empower and encourage other parents and individuals to combat gender ideology at home, in schools, in clinics, and beyond.
