From the New York Times bestselling and award-winning author, Joanna Ho, comes an  uplifting call to action that highlights Asian American history, paired with vibrant and colorful illustrations by artist and activist, Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya. We Who Produce Pearls is a rich celebration of  Asian American identity and a reminder of self-worth, of legacy, and, most of all, of destiny.

This dynamic, lustrous Asian American anthem invites readers to turn pain and  sacrifice into strength, to claim space for stories and dreams. Asian Americans are the  history of this land and children of the celestial. This moving manifesto of rebirth will  resonate with every reader who has ever felt underestimated, erased, or left out of the  combination.

Together, Joanna and Amanda remind readers to rise up, speak out, and step into power.
