Dragon Seed: Chinese Immigrant Youths in New York City

In recent decades, documented and undocumented Chinese immigrants have arrived in New York City from all corners of the world. With approximately 500,000 inhabitants of Chinese descent, New York has grown into the largest “Chinese city” in the western hemisphere. This presentation reports the results of two ongoing research projects involving interviews with 14-24 year old male and female Chinese American youths as well as autobiographical essays. A central purpose of the projects is to elucidate the psychosocial adaptations of Chinese American youths residing in New York. The presentation will explore topics such as adjusting to a new physical and sociocultural environment, acculturation, economic hardship, language barriers, language brokering, discrimination based on ethnicity and immigration status, identity struggles, struggles with one’s body image, family relationships, tensions between the generations, gender roles and gender-based discrimination, and academic achievement.
