From the book jacket:
"This poetic proclamation celebrates the richness and diversity within the Asian American identity and is a reminder of our history, legacy, and most of all, our destiny. Like oysters that turn sand into pearls, we hold injustice to our mouths, but we do not become our pain. This dynamic, luminous anthem is not only a call to action and solidarity but also a love letter to Asian America. Joanna Ho's breathtaking, lyrical writing paired with Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya's signature bright and bold palette brings to light the strength and power within us all, creating a mesmerizing and stunning masterpiece. This moving manifesto of reclamation will resonate with every reader who has, or has yet to, discover the power that flows to them through history and into the future."
