Fifty years after the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 was signed, “We the People” of this country have become more diverse than those lawmakers ever imagined. What other evils are lurking as “minorities” become the majority in these contemporary times that have been labeled “post-Civil Rights,” “post-feminist” and when LGBT equality is considered to be the civil rights issue of today? In these challenging times, Asian Americans, LGBTs, and others are moving from the margins to the center on our campuses, workplaces, communities and even the White House. Writer Helen Zia, the daughter of immigrants from China, explores our increasingly diverse future and the opportunities for all communities to move forward together to re-envision the new face of America. Through personal stories from her experiences as an Asian American, feminist and LGBT activist, she shows how hidden pieces of our common history can help to transform the dreams we have for ourselves and the world around us into positive change.
