Students will examine how cultural productions – literature, film, visual art, music, performance, museums, national monuments and memorials, among others – produce ideas, stories, values and ideologies in different moments during the history of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. Using various methods of cultural inquiry, students explore how race, class, gender, sexuality, immigration status and indigeneity together produce intricate arrangements of power in U.S. society as well as how Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders politicize(d) themselves through their cultural expressions. This course is designed for all students interested in Asian American and Pacific Islander Studies.Usually HeldTue Thu 11:10am–12:35pm, Tue Thu 9:35am–10:55am, Tue Thu 9:35am–11:00am
