"""Sports is more than a game, and Filipino American Sporting Cultures is more than a book about Filipinx Americans playing sports. It combines vivid stories of athletic plays and fandom with thoughtful analyses of how gender, empire, race and sexuality intersect for Asian Americans on and off the field. It has us cheering for the people we meet on this captivating journey of joy, pain, resistance, and camaraderie."" -- Pawan Dhingra, Amherst College"
