ICS 20 Week 3 -- Chinese Immigration3 Takaki’s Main Argument Immigration of Asian Indians was important and interesting because it represented a new diversity in Asian migration to the U.S. Though Asian Indians were also considered “strangers from a different shore,” they were also “Caucasian.”

ICS 20 Week 3 -- Chinese Immigration4 What is the story of Asian Indian immigrants that Takaki tells?
