Toni Morrison`s Jazz (1992), Oscar Hijuelos`s Our House in the Last World (1983), and Chang-rae Lee`s Native Speaker (1995) are literary works to reflect the cultural and political process of immigration in New York. Main characters in the novels are portrayed to struggle to survive and succeed in a new and unfamiliar environment, New York City. The city has been culturally and historically made by immigrants so that it shows diversity and heterogeneity of culture and ethnicity. Writers of minority literatures make great contribution to changing the conservative cultural society. Jazz vivifies the space where African Americans gained freedom through jazz music. Our House in the Last World shows that Cuban Americans or immigrants discovered their own space, that is, niches for the establishment of their own identity while an attempt to expand cultural and political space for minorities is made in Native Speaker. Introducing their ethnic minority cultures, those heterogeneous groups compete, compromise, negotiate, and create unique cultures, which still hold contestations within the cultures. The diverse sources of ethnicities have enriched the culture and literature of New York City. The process of making different spaces is that of cultural conflict and compromise to create new culture, ceaselessly destabilizing ``stability`` and stabilizing ``disorder.``
