Chou titled Myth of the Model Minority: Asian Americans Facing Racism (2nd ed., Paradigm Publishers, 2014). The second edition added new research on how racial stereotyping is gendered and sexualized. New interviews showed that Asian American men felt emasculated in America’s male hierarchy. Women recounted their experiences of being treated as sexual objects. The new data reveal how race, gender, and sexuality intersected in the lives of Asian Americans. The text offered the first in-depth exploration of how Asian Americans experiencedand coped with everyday racism. The book depicted the “double consciousness” of many Asian Americans, who experienced racism but felt pressure to conform to images of their group as America’s highly achieving “model minority.” In 2007, Feagin published Two-Faced Racism: Whites in the Backstage and Frontstage, written with Leslie Houts Picca (Routledge, 2007). Two-Faced Racism examines and explains racial attitudes and behaviours exhibited by whites in private settings. The core of the book drew upon journals of racial events kept by white college students at twenty-eight colleges in the United States. The book tried to understand how whites thought in racial terms. In 1996, Feagin published The Agony of Education: Black Students at a White University with Hernan Vera and Nikitah Imani (Routledge, 1996). The Agony of Education is about the life experience of African American students attending a historically white university, based on interviews conducted with black students and parents concerning their experiences with one state university, and studies of the black experience at state universities.
