Join Science Café to explore the major themes in the LSU anthology Asians on the Third Coast: Other Races, Other Cultures in Louisiana, and discover both the rich story of Asians and Asian Americans in our state and the challenges involved in narrating their lives. As immigrants coming to the U.S. from Jordan to Japan, Asians have changed Louisiana culturally, politically, and gastronomically as much as Louisiana has changed them.Madoka Kishi is a Professional-in-Residence in English at LSU.
