Problem
1) How does Glenn Omatsu describe Asian American Studies as a project of liberation? What does liberation mean?
2) How is the social construction of race tied to power?
3) How is "Asian American" a limited term? How might we re-frame the term through its radical roots? what was the significance of the term during the TWLF strikes?)
4) In the spirit of the 1960s TWLF student strikes, consider your previous experiences as a student. How have matters like race, gender, sexuality, and class impacted the classrooms you have been a part of? If you could envision a classroom that fully responded to your needs as a student, what would that classroom be like?
