Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Elementary and Early Childhood Education Urbana IL. Asian-American Children: What Teachers Should Know. ERIC Digest. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC Asian-Americans constitute a significant minority in the U.S. and are one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in this country, yet little is known about their particular educational needs, especially at the early childhood and elementary levels. This digest provides information to help teachers gain a better understanding of Asian-American children, particularly those from East and Southeast Asian cultures, and identify culturally appropriate educational practices to use with those children. ASIAN-AMERICAN CHILDREN: WHO ARE THEY? The term Asian-American covers a variety of national, cultural, and religious heritages. Indeed, Asian-Americans represent more than 29 distinct subgroups who differ in language, religion, and customs. The four major groups of Asian-Americans are East Asian, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean; Pacific Islander; Southeast Asian, such as Thai and Vietnamese; and South Asian, such as Indian and Pakistani (Pang, 1990). Although there are similarities among the various subgroups, they have different origins, ecological adaptations, and histories.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS REGARDING AMERICAN ATTITUDES TOWARD chinese americansAND asian americans SURVEY April 2001 Who is the Committee of 100?
http://www.committee100.org/Published/surveyfaqs.html

Extractions: The Committee of 100 is a non-partisan, national organization, founded in 1989 by a group of Chinese Americans who are leaders in their fields. They recognized the need for an organization that brings an Asian American perspective to U.S. relations with the most populous region in the world and to address the concerns of Americans of Chinese/Asian heritage. The organization has a two-fold mission: encouraging the full participation of Chinese Americans in U.S. society, and improving relations between the U.S. and Greater China. Why was this study done? Over the years, there have been a number of incidents that we felt have reflected and/or exacerbated an anti-Asian sentiment in America. These include the killing of Vincent Chin in Detroit, a Chinese American that was murdered by auto workers who thought he was Japanese, over concerns regarding loss of jobs, the rise of hate crimes, the Wen Ho Lee issue, and campaign finance scandals. We conducted this study to determine and benchmark what Americans' attitudes really are towards Chinese Americans and Asian Americans. This study was conducted in a two-prong approach, using both qualitative and quantitative studies, for thoroughness and analytical rigor. It is a landmark study, never before conducted, and offers us a sound foundation for further analysis and comparisons in the future.

Extractions: News Release Fact Sheets Culturally Specific Mental Health Resources Related Annotated Bibliography ... Other Surgeon General's Reports Approximately 4% of the U.S. population over 11 million people identify themselves as Asian Americans or Pacific Islanders (AA/PIs). The AA/PI population is expected to double in the next 25 years. About 54% of AA/PIs live in western States, especially California and Hawaii. 18% live in the Northeast, 17% in the South, and 11% in the Midwest. The AA/PI category is extremely diverse, with about 43 different ethnic subgroups. While the majority of AA/PIs were born outside of the U.S., a large proportion of Chinese and Japanese Americans are 4th and 5th generation Americans. Since the mid-1960s, the AA/PI population has grown rapidly with high rates of immigration from China, India, the Philippines, Korea, Vietnam, and Southeast Asia. Most Pacific Islanders are not immigrants, but are descendants of the original inhabitants of land taken over by the United States Hawaii, Tonga, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, the Marshall Islands, the Caroline Islands, and Palau. AA/PIs speak over 100 languages and dialects, and about 35% live in households where there is limited English proficiency in those over age 13. Some subgroups have more limited English proficiency than others: 61% of Hmong-, 56% of Cambodian-, 52% of Laotian-, 44% of Vietnamese-, 41% of Korean-, and 40% of Chinese-American households are linguistically isolated.

Extractions: It was Henry Der, Chair of Chinese for Affirmative Action who took Connerly and Pete Wilson to task. In his eloquent address to the UC Regents, August 20th, Der said: "If Asian American students were to attend certain UC campuses that are exclusively Asian and white, such segregated education would not prepare Asian American students to assume leadership positions in a multiracial California society. As a parent, I do not want any of my three children to experience or choose a segregated college education." Filipinos for Affirmative Action, the Asian Law Caucus, the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance; Kimi Lee, Executive Director of tbe University of California Student Association; and Eddie Wong, Western Region Rainbow Coalition Director, are playing an active role in defending affirmative action for America.

http://www.owlnet.rice.edu/~swlewis/syllabi/AsianM132B.html

Extractions: Course Description and Class Requirements: This course offers an examination of Chinese immigrant literature and filmthe literature written in English and Chinese (in English translation) and films (in English or Chinese with English subtitles) about Chinese immigrant experience. We will begin with Angel Island poems and Gold Mountain poems of early Chinese immigrants to reflections on issues of history, culture, gender, and race in diaspora in the increasingly globalized era of the 1990s. Larger issues to be discussed will include the following: What are the changing meanings of such tropes as "China," "Chinese-ness," "Chinese culture," "America," and "Chinese America" for the Chinese in diaspora? How are these categories imagined differently by different individuals and how are they reconfigured through time? What are the processes by which the immigrant Chinese reconstitute or imagine his/her identity and community in diaspora? Course Requirements: This course emphasizes discussion and writing. You need to participate in classroom discussions.
