Cassandra Cain: Asian-American Batgirl

ARTS & CULTUREBy Ashley TruongFebruary 26, 2011Leave a comment

The first time I heard about Cassandra Cain, I had no idea that she was Asian American. I only knew that she had had a run as Batgirl, and that I should check out the issues featuring her. So imagine my surprise when she made a cameo in Red Robin, looking distinctly…Asian. I had to…

Joy Luck Club 2

ARTS & CULTURE, REVIEWSBy Ashley TruongFebruary 1, 2011Leave a comment

As a journalist (kind of) I have an obligation to be honest, so here goes: I’ve read The Joy Luck Club (and many other Amy Tan books) multiple times. I might even have teared up over The Joy Luck Club, movie version. I thought it was poignant, moving, and so, so true. Which is clearly…
