PBS documentary series ‘Asian Americans’ reveals personal stories and significant history

‘Asian Americans’

When: 8 p.m. Monday and Tuesday, May 11-12. Episodes one and two air Monday, the rest on Tuesday.

Where: PBS

The series moves chronologically through time. The opening episode focuses on the 19th-century immigrants who helped build the American empire yet were excluded from the rights of citizenship. That is followed by a chapter on the first American-born generation, which felt required to prove its loyalty to the country even as many Japanese Americans were imprisoned in camps such as Manzanar during World War II.

Later chapters explore post-war stereotypes, the rise of political and workplace clout, and the rise of Asian Americans as an inclusive and powerful identity.
