How 'Orange Is The New Black' Fails Its Asian Characters

“Groundbreaking” is a word often used describe Orange Is The New Black, and it’s not an entirely unwarranted description.

No, thank you. No, really, thanks

I received my first copy of Hyphen this quarter and just wanted to say thanks for all the time and energy you’ve put into publishing the magazine. Aside from enjoying the various articles, I also feel it’s an important work that keeps the Asian American community informed and unified. As such, I would like to order 10 subscriptions for friends and family. Please find enclosed a check to cover these subscriptions. Thanks and again, keep up the excellent work.
