Nichols\u003c\/em\u003e court case of 1974. This seminal Supreme Court case ruled that the failure to provide adequate and accessible instruction to approximately 1800 students of Chinese ancestry denied them the opportunity to participate in public education and constituted a discrimination on the basis of national origin.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile much has been written on language education policy changes for emergent bilinguals in the US, the perspectives of the key actors involved in the case are rarely heard. This book brings Chinese and Chinese American voices to the forefront, placing the participants within the retrospective social context as they reach their own conclusions about the process and outcomes of the case. It draws upon research in language policy and Asian American studies and invites readers to imagine the social futures and possibilities for what \u003cem\u003eLau v. Nichols\u003c\/em\u003e means for the 21st century and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe volume fills a significant gap in narration, representation and retrospective research and will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in Asian American studies, bilingual education, educational policy and leadership, as well as teachers, school administrators and policymakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrish Morita-Mullaney\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Associate Professor of Literacy and Language and holds a courtesy appointment in the Asian American Studies program at Purdue University, USA.
