Week 5-Blog 5
I will write this week blog about Fujikane’s article “Asian
American Critique…” I love this article because Fujikane talked about how Asian
American Studies was born and we talked about the exact same thing in our class
and also about San Francisco State University. I agree with Fujikane. ASA is born
out of civil rights movement. ASA major today owe a lot to Third World
Liberation Front and all these students of color that protested in 1968 at
SFSU. As an ASA major today, I only need to come to class and start studying. I
don’t need to fight for anything because everything is right in front of me. I
owe it all to these brave students that protested in 1968. Not only that this
strike made history because it’s the longest campus strike in US history. All
ASA majors should thank these students that were involved in that strike
because without them, we wouldn’t be ASA majors.
Questions:
How did South Korea lost farmland due to militarization? How
is that related to APEC? What is Fujikane’s main point about this issue?
