Historically, Hollywood has produced and perpetuated dangerous tropes of Asian/ Americans, particularly Asian/ American women, and dehumanized them in casting and cinematic practices. In recent decades, a diverse coalition of Asian American female directors, producers, actresses, and performers have been seeking new cinematic forms to break the tropes, articulate their humanity, identity, sexuality, cultural heritage, and living experiences. In this course, we will examine vibrant scholarship in Asian/American studies, cinema, race, gender and sexuality to explore the ways in which Asian/ American women have contested and resisted tropes and gender norms in the movie industry and social life and how their roles have evolved. Students will deepen their understanding of these themes through viewing films, documentaries, TV shows, rom coms, stand-up comedies. Students will also create a podcast and edit a Wikipedia entry to make positive interventions in representational justice.
