costless labor. I think its say to say that our country has mastered to art of oppression. The United States government human injustices didn’t stop at racial bias. Women’s and LGBTQ also have a history of oppression. This quarter I was grateful to study about many Asian American and Women’s…

For instance, being more educated, wealthier, or having marriage and family bonds than Americans are the stereotypes about Asian Americans rooted in the American society. In the United States, Asian Americans are usually stroked at hegemonic ideology imposed on minorities. The Asian American experiences within the context of other racial and ethnic experiences in the United States usually relate to the stereotypes. The experience of Jeremy Lin is a good example. Jeremy Lin is an Asian American…

Logos, or logic, involves looking for arguments that make sense in a piece. Amy Tan’s essay is very logical. It makes complete sense, and is simple to understand. Being that it is a narrative, she uses examples to back up her statements about English. She tells the stories of her mother dealing with the stockbroker and the hospital as means to make her point clearer. Ethos looks at the author’s credibility. Tan is a well-known writer, and does a lot of public speaking. We can trust her…

their analysis of how the cultural identity of Asian Americans is affected, share a common thread in that each author posits a framework of polarized racial and cultural ideologies that lay the groundwork for evaluating the tensions and contradictions for the Asian American position. These opposing ideologies serve as ‘poles’ or axis that evince the struggle Asian Americans are situated against as part of the diaspora within clashing White American culture. This essay will frame the Asian…

Some things might have changed towards Asian Americans today but there is still discrimination in most parts of United States. I think Asian Americans still go through the stereotypes and still are labeled as either Chinese, Koreans or Japanese. Orientalist attitude can be viewed in many ways today. For example, Asians who currently work in Hollywood, film industry, continue to be understated as a minority group in movies. Asians or Asian Americans continue to be neglected to such roles and…

I was not concerned about any issues regarding Asians and Asian Americans. I do not think that it is important for me to know or pay attention to them. As long as my life is not affected, I would not take the issues of Asian and Asian American seriously. However, I was wrong. I did not know that Asian Americans’ problem could be a controversial topic in the United States until I read those Asian Americans’ articles and news. In this class, I also could somehow relate myself to some of the topics…

It is difficult to determine when Asians started immigrating to the Americas, but the first findings of a person of Asian descent in the American territory come from an archeological project in 2007. This project speculated that the first people were actually sea men from Japan that came around 16,000 years ago. It can also be said that Asian immigration to America started in 1763. In 1763, Filipino sailors abandoned ship from the Spanish ships and inhabited the New Orleans area. However, the…

As an Asian immigrant growing up in the United States I found it hard to live up to the standards that the American society imposes on the Asian American community. The notion of a “model minority” has been thrown around our culture since the day it was coined in 1966 sparking a prejudice that colored the Asian American people in a specific light—one that can be argued to be bad and, at the same time, good for the community. (Linshi) We were seen as this group of people that were successful…

Hayslip and the overall responsibility of Asian American authors in depicting Asian Americans in literature, specific ideas about gender and sexuality frame such discussions. On one side specifically among Asian American women, there is great criticism against the backlash and condemnation that was levelled against Le Ly Haislip’s When Heaven and Earth Changed Places and Lois-Ann Yamanaka’s Blu’s Hanging due to such attacks being sexist and patriarchal in nature. The opposing side would argue…
