An exploration of Asian Americans in television, music, film, literature, and other artistic media. Discussion and analysis of music, films, and scripts. Asian American Studies 181: Readings in Other Literatures of Asian America This course will consider texts situated at the "margin" of Asian American literary studies, namely Vietnamese American, Cambodian American, South Asian and Korean American narratives. Using a historical approach, we will explore how post-colonial theories can inform the readings of these texts, focusing on the themes of agency versus co-optation. We will closely examine the identity formation of the narrators and how they inform the current debates over identity politics occurring among Asian American literary critics. We will also address the issues of canonization and the intersection of gender, race, and ethnicity.

Extractions: The need to examine applied archaeology stems from the long-held recognition by archaeologists that study of past societies has an important impact on living ones. The pace of applied work in archaeology has greatly accelerated over the past twenty-five years. While legislation is the engine that drives much applied archaeology in cultural resource management, archaeologists also are developing many other creative and autonomous areas. This paper offers a typology and examples of applied archaeology in seven areas: resource claims, cultural identity and representation, technology, public education, cultural resource management (CRM), cultural tourism, environment and ecosystem projects. After examining ethical considerations in applied archaeology, we conclude with discussion of how applied archaeology relates to applied sociocultural anthropology, including attention to methods, local community and social groups, culture broker roles, and qualitative program evaluation. Applied anthropology, and archaeology in particular, has major strengths to offer in building bridges outside the academy. Sociocultural anthropologists can benefit from being more aware of areas of potential collaboration with archaeologists in applied work. Archaeologists can benefit from becoming more aware of areas where sociocultural expertise is needed, e.g. oral history and other interview methods.

Extractions: A 5 page overview of the content of these two books and the differences in presentational style elected by each author. The author of this paper emphasizes that Mexican literature offers a wide gamut of style and subject matter. Of particular interest is the way different writers chose to present their information. Some chose a discursive appropriation while others use formal appropriation. The approach elected by Valle falls into the latter category while that of Martinez falls into the former. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Extractions: El Museo del Barrio was founded in 1969 by a group of educators, artists, community activists and parents of Puerto Rican and other Latin American backgrounds. In the context of the civil rights movement of the time, the founders' immediate concern was the invisibility of their cultural history in the United States. The Puerto Rican founders, who formed the majority, were part of the community which began arriving from the island in the late 1920's, settling in the area of East Harlem now known as el barrio (the neighborhood). They felt marginalized and disenfranchised within North American society and wanted to establish an institution that would reflect their pride in their cultural heritage. For oppressed and colonized peoples, historical memory-the act of remembering, of salvaging the past- is equivalent to collective survival. The conscious act of remembering, for Latin Americans, redeems the historical past from the indifference, marginalization, or distortion it has suffered from the dominant European and North American cultures. Honoring the cultural practices of the past socio-political, spiritual, popular and aesthetic is a vital act that elucidates the present, offering a partial blueprint for the future, rather than mere nostalgia or a dutiful veneration of dead tradition.
