ASAM 003. Introduction to Asian American Studies

This course provides an introduction to the history and experiences of Asian & Pacific Islander people in the Americas, broadly conceived. It will explore the diverse range of experiences that fall under the “AAPI” rubric, including developing frameworks for understanding processes of racialization. We will explore some of the major debates in Asian American studies, including how it is positioned within (and sometimes against) other ethnic studies approaches.
