What is happening in this photograph is a Chinese student is protesting the militarization of China in Beijing by placing his life at risk by standing in front of four oncoming military tanks I could, in all reality, run him over at any moment. In Beijing in 1989, many students were upset with China and they felt that they needed to protest against the government. Time Magazine claims that this picture has a lot of effect on what people think…
became, at the time, the single biggest problem for China as a nation, and somewhat surprisingly, Britain played a role in this epidemic. The British East India Company grew opium in their colonies in India. The British would drink opium in bottles, kind of like medicine; they would even give it to their children to go to sleep. Consuming opium like this is not as addictive as inhaling it. The Chinese would smoke opium which caused many people in China to become addicted. Fathers of certain…

In some chapters, I found the implication of a few contents are similar to our Chinese ancient literatures. For example, in the story, “The Young Carpenter”, here is a cunning sentence: “… to do by others as they would have others to do to them” which can be found counterparts in the Chinese language straightforward. “What you do not wish yourself, do not do onto others.” Words from the Analects of Confucius which are conversant to us all can be seen in the Bible, too. Jesus left Nazareth to…
Sin of Omission Throughout the course of American history, racial discrimination and acts of xenophobia are often reoccurring trends. Whether the acts of bigotry and prejudice were at a microscopic or macroscopic level, it heavily affected the psychological mentality and perceptions amongst those who were victimized. This is shown in a “Wilshire Bus”, a short story written by Hisaye Yamamoto to initiate a conversation and standpoint of often overlooked anti-Asian semantics. Through the hostile…
The era of the 1400s-1700s was a time of great discovery, invention, expansion, and the early establishment of trading routes and alliances. Various European countries and China both began sea expeditions abroad in order to learn about the world and people around them.

The way her parents and other Chinese people speak about girls is one of the reasons that she seems to at sometimes resent the Chinese culture. However, she really seems to identify with the figure of the women warrior. As a kid she was told the story of Fa Mulan and to wants to be like her…

On discussing the topic of women’s roles in China, I think the movie, Mulan, truly identifies what a Chinese woman was about. Women in China were often ignored and treated with little respect. They were often spotted indoors doing house work, while their husband were outside doing all the hard labor. Also, as a woman, there were a lot of expectations of bringing honor to the family that were all mentioned in the film. In my opinion, Mulan is historically accurate when analyzing on the topic of…
