Historically, Hollywood has produced and perpetuated dangerous tropes and stereotypes of Asian/Americans, particularly Asian/ American women. In recent decades, a diverse coalition of Asian/ American women directors, producers, actresses, comedians, and performers have been seeking new cinematic forms to break the tropes, articulate their humanity, sexuality, identity, cultural values, heritage, and living experiences. In this course, we will examine vibrant scholarship about cinema, feminism, gender and sexuality to explore the ways in which Asian/ American women have contested stereotypes and gender norms in the movie industry and social life and how their roles have evolved. Students will interact with a diverse array of films, TV shows, rom coms, stand-up comedies, and clips. Students will work in groups of three to edit Wikipedia articles that perpetuate tropes, misrepresentation about Asian/American women in Hollywood movies covered in the course syllabus, or other movies of the group’s choice, or fill in the gap due to lack of authentic information, or update outdated information on the related topics of our course using credible sources to back up their changes.
