Frank Chin is vilified in the current AAPI canon, despite being the first Asian American to get a play produced in the US. Though you can't even find any of his work for free (pirated) on the internet. They say his work (he wrote alot of short stories) are misogynistic, etc etc. This essay was written in the early 70's, so alot of the references might be lost on you, but the message is one that I think is very prevalent and unfortunately forgotten.
He also wrote a novel, he's a pretty funny writer, and it's not a very long read.

This is more general, about colonialism, which pretains more to Malcolm X, "Who taught you to hate yourself" etc etc.

Basically outlines how european cultures were able to justify their exploitation of asian/african/carribean/etc etc cultures. Painting the other's culture as inferior, portraying the males as either savage barbarians or effeminate perverts, and the women as repressed, oppressed, and waiting for the liberation of the west.
Naturally, books are long, here's some articles, you might have read them before, I dunno.

Here's a study about the colonialized mentality of asian females:

Anyways, I wouldn't stick around here too long, it gets really depressing and will eat at you. It's very negative and toxic but think of /r/hapas as the malcolm x side of the coin on AAPI activism.
