“Recollections, Pioneers and Heroes” Featuring Gordon Chang

Our second Committee of 100 Conversations event features Gordon Chang, Professor of American History, Olive H. Palmer Professor in Humanities at Stanford University and a Committee of 100 member. Chang will provide a crucial historical perspective on the urgent issues facing Asian Americans in a time of rising international tensions and anti-Asian sentiments at home. In addition, he will reflect on his scholarly trajectory and his journey into Asian American studies as a field of study. Chang will comment on his latest book, War, Race and Culture – Journeys in Trans-Pacific and Asian American Histories, a career-spanning anthology of significant essays that prompt conversations across his broad-ranging research interests and personal history, from trans-Pacific history and Asian American history to art history.
