Reviews

... a good balance between theoretical arguments and respectful analyses of the voices of young Asian women, as well as offering suggestions for the way forward. I would strongly recommend this book to all those interested in issues of racism in schools. Discourse: studies in the cultural politics of education Shain accomplishes an engaging and insightful analysis of the resistance strategies against racism used by young Asian students, which does indeed unsettle the dominant representations she sets out to challenge.
