Winner of the Book Award given by the American Sociological Association Section on Asia and Asian America.

"Saito has accomplished much in advancing our theoretical understanding of multi-racial America. As a scholar-activist, he has been able to overcome a common weakness of community activists, who usually lack the time, the writing skills, and the intellectual grounding or theoretical breakthrough. His is a rare achievement in the field of social sciences."--Journal of Asian American Studies
