The main goal of this book is to discuss the history of Asian. The man must be a prodigy who can retain his manners and morals undepraved by such circumstances. Strangers from a Different Short, written by Ronald Takaki, is a nonfiction novel about the history of Asian Americans. The parent storms, the child looks on, catches the lineaments of wrath, puts on the same airs in the circle of smaller slaves, gives a loose to his worst of passions, and thus nursed, educated, and daily exercised in tyranny, cannot but be stamped by it with odious peculiarities. If a parent could find no motive either in his philanthropy or his self-love, for restraining the intemperance of passion toward his slave, it should always be a sufficient one that his child is present. From his cradle to his grave he is learning to do what he sees others do. This quality is the germ of all education in him. Our children see this, and learn to imitate it for man is an imitative animal. “ The whole commerce between master and slave is a perpetual exercise of the most boisterous passions, the most unremitting despotism on the one part, and degrading submissions on the other.
