    Description
    This course is the study of Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) histories, cultures, and social experiences in the United States, with a focus on critical theories and contemporary approaches. Emphasizing a thematic exploration of race, ethnicity, gender, and class, the course examines the impact of imperialism, colonialism, and resistance movements, and integrates academic community-based scholarship to understand APIA contributions and struggles within a border socio-political context.
