“Written in Eguchi’s distinctive and compelling voice, Asians Loving Asians will make you rethink your assumptions about race, gender, sexuality, and nation. Bringing together the fields of communication, Asian American studies, and Queer studies, the book displays an astonishing intellectual breadth. At the same time, it provides a template for pushing the boundaries of qualitative methods and demonstrates the transformative possibilities of critical, cultural, and auto-ethnographic methods.”—LeiLani Nishime, Professor of Communication, University of Washington and Author of Undercover Asian: Multiracial Asian Americans in Visual Culture and Co-Editor of Racial Ecologies
