2017-2018 Catalog

A&S 243 Asian America

In this course, we will explore the diversity of Asian/Pacific groups in the Americas, their trajectories of migration, racialization, and community formation. In addition to focusing on People's everyday lived experiences, we will also discuss multiple approaches to "Asian America" as a topic of scholarship and activism. We will be paying close attention to the ways that Asian American identities are not only about race and ethnicity, but also gender, generation, sexuality, and class. [GM1, SS]
