Shades of White- Race, Color & Immigrant Assimilation in America (Intro)

Welcome to the A.P.E. Academy Podcast!! We are back after a long layoff. This short episode is an introduction to a series entitled "Shades of White" in which we will discuss historical whiteness and the process of immigrant assimilation in America from the 18th to the 21st century. Irish, Italian, Jewish, Chinese, Japanese, Syrian, and Mexican communities will play central roles in our discussions on whiteness, that is, what it means to be "white" in America. Tune in!!
