In part two of our William Hung series, Jamie takes a look at two of the biggest conversations that William sparked upon his debut: the representation of Asian Americans in the U.S., and how reality shows remove authorship from their subjects. Twenty years later, what can we take away from this moment? We speak with sociologist Nancy Wang Yeun about her experience first encountering William's narrative and the legacy of Asian representation up until that time, and reality show editing vet Steve Flack about how reality television can Frankenbite its subjects into completely different people.

In 1880, the Chinese were the biggest group of immigrants in the western U.S. But Sinophobic sentiments crystallized into racist policies and eventually the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. The rationale was that banning Chinese laborers would boost job opportunities for U.S.-born workers. Today, an economist explains how the Chinese exclusion laws affected the economies of western states and what it says about our current debate over immigration and jobs.Read the working paper co-authored by Nancy Qian.A digital scan of the photo album in the California Historical Society's collections is available here.For more on this period of history, check out At America's Gates: Chinese Immigration during the Exclusion Era, 1882-1943 by Erika Lee.Related episodes:What's missing in the immigration debate (Apple / Spotify) For sponsor-free episodes of The Indicator from Planet Money, subscribe to Planet Money+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

According to NBC News, Erika Lee, a resident of Springfield, Ohio, regrets a Facebook post she made that falsely suggested Haitian immigrants were responsible for local pets disappearing and eating them. She admitted to having no firsthand knowledge of the claim, which quickly spread online, fueling misinformation. “It just exploded into something I didn't mean to happen,” Lee said. The rumor was amplified by other posts, including a misattributed photo. Despite local police confirming no evidence of such crimes, the false claims went viral, even reaching national attention during a presidential debate. Former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, repeated the baseless allegations. Lee has since deleted the post and expressed fear and remorse over the fallout.

The intersections of race and class or work and power has tantalizing effects on our understanding of history. It can reshape our appreciation of socio-cultural norms and the way we define the Gilded Age.

Obviously one 30-minute podcast episode to commemorate Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month is not sufficient—but I'm hoping you'll tune in to at least get the month going. On this episode I am joined by my friend and journalist Curtis Yee. Curtis regularly contributes to Christianity Today and Sojourners, as well as other outlets, covering a breadth of topics including Asian American culture, church, and mental health. This conversation is a great introduction to all of that! Curtis and I talk about:- The origination of the term Asian American - The history, distinctiveness, and function of the Asian American church - What it's like to move between Asian American church and contexts and the broader American context—burdens, joys, unique experiences. - How journalism and media affect how we all understand Asian Americans (This is the white tourism part of our convo—so interesting! Don't be a white tourist this month.)- The challenges of investigating mental health in Asian American contexts and churches. Pursue further reading and resources this month!

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was the first federal legislation to prohibit an entire nation of people from coming to the United States. It instigated a century or more or immigration regulations and codified "illegal" immigration. Dr. Ben Railton joins the show to explore the act. Ten years ago, Ben wrote about how the legislation still reverberates throughout the twentieth century, and in this episode we bring that history to bear on current events.Essential Reading:Benjamin Railton, The Chinese Exclusion Act: What It Can Teach Us about America (2013).Recommended Reading:Hidetaka Hirota, Expelling the Poor: Atlantic Seaboard States and the Nineteenth-Century Origins of American Immigration Policy (2017).Jane Hong, Opening the Gates to Asia: A Transpacific History of How America Repealed Asian Exclusion (2019).Erika Lee, America for Americans and The Making of Asian America (2016).Liel Leibovitz and Matthew Miller, Fortunate Sons: The 120 Chinese Boys Who Came to America, Went to School, and Revolutionized an Ancient Civilization (2011).Beth Lew-Williams, The Chinese Must Go: Violence, Exclusion, and the Making of the Alien in America (2021).Robert Weir, Knights Unhorsed: Internal Conflict in a Gilded Age Social Movement (2000).

Hello from Tammy's surfing hagwon! This week, we're celebrating 1 MILLION DOWNLOADS! Sounds fake, we know, but Substack doesn't lie. Thanks for tuning in to our ramblings for the past two and a half years—long live TTSG!At the top of the show, we listen to a posthumous podcast with New Yorker editor John Bennett and several of his writers. We reflect on “Bennettisms” about the editor-writer relationship and how writers can help their readers. Next, Tammy reports on the heightened military tensions in Korea and across Asia. What makes this moment feel different in a region accustomed to confrontation and nuclear threats? How has the mainstream response to these threats shifted? And what does the war in Ukraine mean for state sovereignty and Cold War alignments? Plus: Korea's most economically valuable young men (BTS) report for mandatory military service. Last, we go long on the L.A. City Council mess. As we discussed briefly last week, three council members and a union leader were caught making racist remarks in a closed-door discussion last year about redistricting. We dig into the deeper political arrangement in L.A. and the good and bad of ethnic solidarity. Could this incident, which has confirmed some cynical suspicions about local politics, be an earthquake moment that leads to stronger coalitions along race and class lines? Will this turn Jay and Tammy into Republicans? Next week, we'll be recording a

"When I think about my work in particular, I fall on creative journey. I really think about my creativity and what I wanna be making and what ideas excite me. But I also think about - what are the daily moments that are around us? What are we capturing as creatives? As writers, we are kind of historians of our time. We are dictating what is happening around us all the time. We are the people on the streets that are deciding what's gonna be a moment in time. Our fingerprint on the world that's gonna be left for later." ~ Erika Lee Sears In this episode, Kaitlin chats with Erika Lee Sears, a self taught oil painter and full-time artist who makes an original piece of art every single day and shares her journey of this daily making online. Kaitlin and Erika spoke about motherhood, art, and legacy given the current political atmosphere and global challenges from climate change and war, to gun violence and attacks on women's rights. Erika and Kaitlin talk about: What it means to be both a self-taught oil painter, and a prolific visual artist during motherhood. How Erika got into creating an oil painting everyday for the past seven years, from 6 weeks postpartum. Legacies, and how the work we're producing today will impact civilization many years from now. For example, what impact our work in creating more equality for women and caregivers will have on civilisation in 500 years. How Erika has been able to earn money and support herself through her art.

There is a fundamental duality in how Asian Americans are perceived in our country. They've at times been held up as the “model minority”, affirming this idea that the American Dream is alive and well if only immigrants could work harder. At other times they've been regarded as threatening and perpetually foreign. A recent example of this is the dramatic rise in anti-Asian violence in the wake of the covid-19 pandemic.On this episode of UnTextbooked, producer Victor Ye interviews Dr. Erika Lee, author of The Making of Asian America: A History. They discuss the history of Asians in America and why stereotypes from hundreds of years ago still persist today.Book: The Making of Asian America: A HistoryGuest: Erika Lee, PhD, History Professor at the University of MinnesotaProducer: Victor YeMusic: Silas Bohen and Coleman HamiltonEditors: Bethany Denton and Jeff Emtman

We talk with Dr. Erika Lee about her book, "America for Americans: A History of Xenophobia in the United States." Some say America is a place for anyone and everyone. We learn in elementary school that America was started by people seeking a new life, where they could have religious freedom, that it is a place that accepts, "poor, huddled masses."But at the same time, there is talk of border security, of legal immigrants, of undocumented immigrants, of which countries we should accept immigrants from. Along with talk, there are also actions. Over the course of American history, we have seen the Chinese, the Japanese, people from majority-muslim countries, Jews and Catholics and just about everyone else, questioned about whether they belong.This episode wrestles with the question: Why does America continually ask, "who belongs?"Dr. Lee is available on Twitter @prof_erikalee and her website is erikalee.org.Axelbank Reports History and Today is available on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @axelbankhistoryWe do want to invite listeners to our Patreon page, to ask for your support in keeping the show going, which is www.patreon.com/axelbankhistory

This episode we dive deep into all things SEX. We speak about how sex relates to self love, marriage, long term relationships and one night stands. Its hard to believe but Delby and Branchy managed to be mature and have a great open discussion on everything related to sex and relationships.

Donald Trump has called Mexican migrants criminals and rapists, vowed to build a "beautiful" wall along the southern border, and presided over traumatic family separations among asylum seekers. But nativist ideology in U.S. politics — and policy — is nothing new. Immigration scholar Erika Lee walks Will and Siva through America's spotty record as a nation of immigrants, from the Naturalization Act of 1790, which barred nonwhite people from becoming citizens, to the Trump administration's Muslim ban in 2017.

The full show transcript is available on our website: https://history.wisc.edu/ask-a-historian/ The COVID-19 pandemic has been accompanied by a spike in anti-Asian, especially anti-Chinese, racism. Why have Asian Americans often been the target of xenophobic and racist attacks during past disease outbreaks? Professor Cindy I-Fen Cheng puts the past and present in conversation as she explains how Americans have historically used immigrant scapegoating to misdirect attention from larger structural issues in society. She tells us about the history of Chinese immigration exclusion, traces the development of racist ideas about Asian Americans, and reflects on the Cold War continuities she sees in the conspiracy theory that the COVID-19 virus originated in a Wuhan virology lab. Finally, she shares her hope that this moment produces increased discussion on the policies that have created structural racism, as well as a new commitment to creating policies that ensure greater equity for all people. Cindy I-Fen Cheng is Professor of History and Director of the Asian American Studies Program at the University of Wisconsin—Madison.

It calls for an immediate end to the xenophobic rhetoric, hate crimes, and violence against our people and communities, and invites all Americans to join them.” The SOLA Network supported this statement, and more than 10,000 people have signed it since it was published on March 31, 2020. SOLA Editor Hannah Chao interviewed Pastor Raymond Chang, president of the AACC, and Dr. Michelle Reyes, vice president of AACC, both of whom were lead drafters on the statement and are committed to Biblically-rooted racial justice.

Immigration to the US often suffers when the country faces a disaster, whether it is a disaster of war, economy or public health.The novel coronavirus pandemic has already prompted the Trump administration to close borders and turn away asylum-seekers without sufficient processing. On Monday, President Donald Trump tweeted that he would suspend immigration to the US. That statement was later clarified as a plan to temporarily halt giving foreigners permanent residence in the United States, which Trump claims will protect American workers during the coronavirus pandemic. The order, which is undergoing a legal review, would suspended the process to grant foreigners "green cards" for permanent residence, but a White House official who requested anonymity to discuss the process suggested the timeline for the order could be pushed back.Critics say the president's announcement is a move to take advantage of the coronavirus crisis to implement a long-sought policy goal ahead of this year's presidential election. Business groups expressed opposition to Trump's plan on Tuesday, arguing it would only further depress the economy.Many key details of Trump's planned executive order are still unknown, but crucially, while the order could block many people applying for permanent residence outside the United States, it is not clear how it would impact people already in the country seeking to become permanent residents. Trump said the order initially would last for 60 days and could be renewed for the same period or longer, and that a second immigration-focused order was under consideration.The Washington-based Migration Policy Institute estimates that Trump's green card effort could prevent between 114,000 and 660,000 people securing permanent residence — if left in place for a year.Erika Lee is an immigration history professor at the University of Minnesota and the author of "America for Americans: A History of Xenophobia in the United States." The World's Marco Werman spoke with Lee about how the US has responded with changes to immigration policy and increased xenophobia during times of war, economic hardship and disease throughout history.Related: For centuries, migrants have been said to pose public health risks. They don't.Marco Werman: Let's take a historical look at this. Your book, "America for Americans" is about the US' long history with xenophobia. You've seen the intersection of disease or other crises and nativism before in the past century. How does this current administration's response to this pandemic compare to another public health emergency, whether it's the 1918 flu or the response to the collapse of hygiene in New Orleans after Katrina?Erika Lee: The 1918 flu pandemic is actually really fascinating to compare it to what's happening today. So first, we have to understand that, of course, during World War I, immigration was effectively halted due to the war and the end of passenger steamship travel. But even during the flu pandemic, in which the US lost 650,000 lives, the country didn't try to limit immigration. In fact, we still let in over 110,000 immigrants. And the Bureau of Immigration touted its kind treatment of sick immigrants.So, take the immigration detention center in New Orleans, for example. There was an outbreak of flu epidemic there. There were 30 immigrants who were sick. But the Bureau of Immigration published a report in which it touted how it took care of its employees by requiring face masks, it sanitized the facilities, it put into place social distancing or isolation. And because of that treatment of immigrants, no lives were lost.Related: Public charge rule has history of 'racial exclusion' Erika, the stories right now of hate directed at Asians, Asian Americans — we're hearing stories of acid attacks. So personally, what has it's been like for you as someone whose grandfather arrived in this country during the Chinese Exclusion Act?You know, I remember hearing stories of my parents insisting that during World War II, into the 1950s and '60s, they still felt the sting, not only of Chinese exclusion, but also just anti-Asian racism, in general. Obviously, Japanese American incarceration, as well. And their philosophy was, "We need to show that we're Americans first and Chinese second." So for them, there was this sense of sort of ultra assimilation. "We need to prove that we're loyal. We need to prove that we're patriots. We need to prove that we're assimilated."I think that the sense of worthiness, you know, is really being questioned for Chinese Americans and other Asian Americans, feeling like they're being suspected of bringing the virus and spreading the virus. And it takes its toll. And it's not just these horrific violent attacks, these physical attacks or the name calling or the social shunning. It's also just this internalized sense of, "Oh, I thought we belonged. But look how easily the tables can be turned on us." And I think there's a palpable sense of fear now that we're all supposed to wear masks out in public. There is a racialized image of an Asian person in a mask that is quite different than any other type of person wearing a medical mask.Related: Decades after an immigration policy separated his family, a man searches for his ancestral villageI had not even thought about that mask aspect to all of it.I certainly feel very self-conscious now wearing a mask outside.Related: One legacy of the Chinese Exclusion Act? Secrecy. You've also written, Erika, that Americans have the power to combat xenophobia. Obviously, as individuals, we all have that power. Aside from a person's vote, though, what would that take today? What would you like to see?That's a really tough one. I think that so many of us feel disempowered because there are the legal challenges. Those have to continue. But many of us aren't skilled and tooled in doing that. We can support those organizations. We need to make sure that we're supporting immigrant serving organizations and, of course, vote. But as we're seeing xenophobia sort of spread out into the streets and into our neighborhoods and on our subways, one of the things that we can all do is stop it. We need to be those bystanders who don't just look away, but actually take action to intervene and to protect those who are vulnerable.This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity. Reuters contributed reporting. 

Coronavirus is all over the headlines. Accompanying the growing anxiety around its spread, has been suspicion and harassment of Asians and Asian Americans. For more on this, we turned to Gene Demby, co-host of NPR's Code Switch podcast, and his conversation with historian Erika Lee. We talk about how this wave of stigma is part of a longer history in the United States of camouflaging xenophobia as public health and hygiene concerns.

Welcome to Digital Empire Strikes Back! The digital marketing podcast that interviews entrepreneurs, business owners and brands trying to scale online. Our first ever guest is Erika Lee Williams owner of On Next Sunday and trendy women's clothing boutique with an e-commerce store and two brick and mortar stores in El Paso, TX. In this episode, we cover a lot of ground on how to promote your e-commerce store using Facebook, Google and Instagram's professional tools. Erika has been killing it on Instagram so I share with her a few ideas on how to capitalize on that traffic she has worked so hard for so it does not go to waste.

The United States is known as a nation of immigrants—but it is also a nation of xenophobia. Author Erika Lee took the stage at Town Hall with an unblinking look at the irrational fear, hatred, and hostility toward immigrants which have been defining features of our nation from the colonial era to the Trump era. Drawing on perspectives from her book America for Americans, Lee offered numerous examples chronicling our nation’s entrenched and staunchly negative treatment of immigrants. Benjamin Franklin ridiculed Germans for their “strange and foreign ways.” Americans’ anxiety over Irish Catholics turned xenophobia into a national political movement. Chinese immigrants have been excluded, Japanese incarcerated, and Mexicans deported—and today many Americans fear Muslims, Latinos, and the so-called browning of America. Lee invited us to confront our nation’s history and break down how xenophobia works, why it has endured, and how it threatens America. Erika Lee is a Regents Professor, the Rudolph J. Vecoli Chair in Immigration History, director of the Immigration History Research Center at the University of Minnesota, and Andrew Carnegie Fellow. She is the author of The Making of Asian America and other award-winning books. Presented by Town Hall Seattle. Recorded live in The Forum on December 10, 2019. 

Guest: University of Minnesota Regent's Professor of History & Asian American Studies Erika LeeImmigration is one of America's most divisive issues. Congress has thus far failed to come up with a comprehensive immigration reform plan that enjoys bipartisan support. Donald Trump made illegal immigration a key component of his presidential campaign platform. Now, as president, Trump continues to focus on immigration, and his administration's policy of separating families who cross the border with Mexico has generated considerable controversy. Despite the image of the US as a melting pot, fear and distrust of immigrants has waxed and waned throughout the country's history. This week on Dialogue Minnesota, we have a conversation with Erika Lee, an Andrew Carnegie Fellow, Regents Professor of History and Asian American Studies, a Distinguished McKnight University Professor and the Rudolph J. Vecoli Chair in Immigration at the University of Minnesota. She is currently on leave as the Director of the U's Immigration Research Center, and is the author of a new book titled America for Americans: A History of Xenophobia in the United States. A book launch event and roundtable discussion is taking place on December 3 from 6:00 pm-8:30 pm at the University of Minnesota's Humphrey School of Public Affairs.

Conversations about US-China relations often revolve around tariffs, trades and recently, President Donald Trump’s tweets. So on this episode of BackStory, Nathan, Joanne and special guest host Erika Lee (http://www.erikalee.org/) go beyond the standard narrative of US-China relations and learn about three Chinese and Chinese American people who worked to change American perceptions of China.

What does it mean to be excluded from the American Dream? Two stories, set 100 years apart, explore this question from the perspective of immigrants who think they’ve made it in America, only to find out that their dream comes at a cost. "No Place Like Home" At the height of America’s Exclusion era, an Indian immigrant’s quest for prosperity ends in a tragic realization that being a “good immigrant” isn’t enough to escape the realities of racism. "Non-White Picket Fences" A fight over a homeless shelter in one of America’s most Asian cities reveals the choices that Americans face in seeking suburban paradise.

In this episode, recorded days before the announcement of Trump 45's new travel ban, journalist and commentator Emil Guillermo talks to  Erika Lee, the director of the Immigration History Research Center at the University of Minnesota. She's the author of the book, "The Making of Asian America."  If you’re Asian American,  not a visa overstay, nor a DACA recipient, you may have your head down and not be paying attention to all the new proposals on immigration and border security. But a new proposal could impact Asian Americans and their families and friends. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has proposed this idea: to collect private social media from Chinese visitors entering the U.S. on tourist and business visas. National security is again the stated fear, even though there’s little evidence to justify such an invasion of privacy. This unfair scrutiny based on race and national origin could result in unjust harassment, detention and should be a chilling reminder to Asian Americans whose ancestors were the first major group to be targeted and banned from the U.S. “These types of actions do affect Asian Americans,” historian Erika Lee, director of the Immigration History Research Center at the University of Minnesota, told me on the AALDEF podcast, “Emil Amok’s Takeout.”  “Asian immigrants are the fastest, not only immigrant group in the United States, but the fastest growing undocumented immigrant group in the United States. So they are directly impacted by these interior enforcement and border security propositions and policies.” Collecting information from Chinese business and tourist visa holders could just be the beginning of a greater overreach by the government. On the week when a new revised travel ban is expected, Lee warns: “If any of our international relations with Asian countries get even more  rocky, who knows who will be added to the travel ban.” Lee adds:  “I don’t think that class status or national origin protects new Asian immigrants from these policies. But certainly as Asian Americans, whose families have  lived through (the consequences of previous bans like Chinese Exclusion),  the need to act up is imperative. The need to talk about solidarity, and  show solidarity couldn’t be more clear.” Once we’re on ITunes, please subscribe rate and review.
