Set in intersecting realities of truth and television, π°πππππππ πͺππππππππ by Charles Yu is a scathing and hilarious commentary on the racism, invisibility, and erasure of Asians in American History and Hollywood.
The story takes place in the Golden Palace Restaurant featured in the procedural cop show βBlack & Whiteβ. Willis Wu plays βGeneric Asian Manβ but is gunning for the coveted βKung Fu Guyβ role. He wrestles with making an attempt to sacrifice his dignity to be seen by White America or be seen by his family.
