Daisy Ball and Nicholas Daniel Hartlep’s Asian/Americans, Education, and Crime: The Model Minority as Victim and Perpetrator provides a much-needed examination of an understudied and misunderstood population. Each essay offers a penetrating analysis of some aspect of the complex intersection of race, education, the media, and the criminal justice system. Sweeping in its coverage, the volume collectively challenges the hegemonic narrative that Asian/Americans are a homogeneous group and “model minorities.” The volume provides powerful and nuanced insights while highlighting the critical need for further investigations into the diverse lives of Asian/Americans.

- James Hawdon, Virginia Tech,

In Asian/Americans, Education, and Crime: The Model Minority as Victim and Perpetrator, Ball and Hartlep shine a radiant light of scrutiny that frees us from the ‘Model Minority’ closet to be seen as authentic human beings who are both resilient and vulnerable to adverse social conditions.

- Suzanne SooHoo, Chapman University,

Asian/Americans, Education, and Crime: The Model Minority as Victim and Perpetrator analyzes Asian/Americans’ interactions with the U.S. criminal justice system as perpetrators and victims of crime. This book contributes to a limited amount of scholarly writing so that researchers, policymakers, and educators can gain a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the relationship between Asian/Americans and the criminal justice system. In reality, Asian/Americans in the United States are both the victims of crime and the perpetrators of crime. However, their characterization as the “model minority” masks the victimization and violence they experience in the twenty-first century.
