You're right about her 'chinese in america' book. I kept expecting to see her perspective shift on chinese progress and prospects, but even as she wrote about the 80s and beyond, it was all victicrat bullshit. Unbelievable!

Nevertheless, she was very talented and for the most part I enjoyed her books. Really surprising she'd commit suicide. (On the other hand, ultra-liberal as she was, maybe the election had something to do with it--if only it wasn't her, but Michael Moore instead).

That is too bad as most Asians don’t have such a mentality. I live in an area where there are a large number of Asians, especially 1st and 2nd generation Asian-Americans, and few waste their time moaning and groaning. They own and operate businesses, dominate the colleges and universities, own luxury cars and beautiful homes, have their kids in youth symphonies, etc., etc., etc.

There are a couple of other groups who could learn a lot from them.
