ASTD 110Asian American Studies Course count1
This course explores Asian American experiences and histories from 1776 to the present with a special emphasis on labor, war, and activism. We will explore how Asian laborers have been racialized in relation to other groups in the United States and its territories; how American wars in the Pacific influence both the demographic make-up and critical outlook of Asian America; and how different Asian American groups have organized in response to U.S. racism and imperialism. Rather than take Asian America as a given, we will probe the contours of who is considered a part of Asian American history, challenging the field to acknowledge under-represented groups such as Pacific Islanders, South Asians, Southeast Asians, and Arab Americans. We will explore how questions of race and ethnicity intersect with those of class, gender, and sexuality. This course utilizes an interdisciplinary approach, combining archival analyses with theory, poetry, memoir, and film. GPA units: 1 Common Area: Cross-Cultural Studies Typically Offered: Annually
