“In this strikingly elegant and philosophical book, Michelle N. Huang makes a compelling case for why Asian Americans are an apt template for unveiling the line between the human and nonhuman. Focusing on experimental Asian American creative practices that challenge the materiality of race, Huang shows us how the projection of racialization onto things in the natural world enables varying forms of resource extraction, whether animal, mineral, or human.”—Leslie Bow, author of, Racist Love: Asian Abstraction and the Pleasures of Fantasy
