ASIAN AMERICA: THE KEN FONG PODCAST

EP 545: Michael Luo On "Strangers in the Land: Exclusion, Belonging & the Epic Story of Chinese in America"

20 Jul 2025

Description

Michael Luo is an executive editor at The New Yorker and writes regularly on politics, religion, and Asian American issues. His first book, "Strangers in the Land: Exclusion, Belonging, and the Epic Story of the Chinese in America," is a well-researched history of Chinese Americans from the Gold Rush until the 1960s. Using his skills as a former investigative reporter, Luo manages to bring back to life the myriad Chinese Americans who struggled, suffered, and even were murdered in their persistent efforts to make this strange new land a new home for themselves and for those who would one day follow in their footsteps.
