Ethnic Visibility and Adaptive Strategies: Samoans in the Seattle Area

Kotchek, Lydia

Journal of Ethnic Studies, 4, 4, 29-38, Win 77

Describes the ways and means of adaptation and interaction used by a purportedly invisible ethnic minority, the Samoan population of Seattle, Washington, and discusses both how these ways and means of adaptation and interaction relate to each other and how they are facilitated or blocked by the relative invisibility of the group.
