Description
1977. [Asian American] [Labor] Cabezas, Amado Y., and Harold T. Yee. Discriminatory Employment of Asian Americans: Private Industry in the San Francisco-Oakland SMSA. San Francisco: ASIAN, Inc., July 4, 1977. First edition. Scarce. 350+ pages. Original printed tan and brown cardstock wrappers. 4to. A foundational civil rights study addressing systemic racial discrimination against Asian Americans in Northern California's private sector labor markets during the 1970s. Published by ASIAN, Inc. (Asian American Service Institute for Assistance to Neighbors), this comprehensive technical report investigates employment disparities affecting Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Thai, Filipino and other Asian ethnic groups within the San Francisco-Oakland Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA). Drawing from Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO-1) data, census figures, and customized statistical programs (CMPR, OCCUP, EPROB, SICBAR), the study identifies industry-specific disparities in sectors such as construction, transportation, finance, insurance, and health services. Statistical outputs and charts provide parity profiles, probability values, and comparative breakdowns by occupation and gender, offering detailed insight into labor stratification. The preface firmly situates Asian Americans alongside other historically marginalized groups-Black, Latino, and Native American communities-and critiques the "model minority" myth, which, the authors argue, obscures deep-seated employment inequality. The authors emphasize the heterogeneity within the Asian American umbrella, including generational, linguistic, and national-origin differences that affect economic integration and civil rights advocacy. Numerous appendices and tables (e.g., "Ratio of Asian Male and Asian Female Income to White Male Income, SF-O SMSA, 1970") expose measurable wage gaps and occupational segregation, while the recommendations section urges targeted policy interventions to enforce Title VII protections under the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Very good condition overall with only mild edge wear. A rare and significant document in the history of Asian American activism, labor studies, and anti-discrimination research-particularly valuable for institutions documenting post-1965 immigration reform and Bay Area civil rights history.
