Mission Asian American Studies provides critical interdisciplinary perspectives on the various histories of contact, migration, and settlement of Asian groups in the United States. "Asian Americans" compose a diverse collection of diasporic communities, and are becoming increasingly fractured along socioeconomic and geographic lines. In an era of U.S. global hegemony fueled by an increasing military and economic presence in the Pacific Rim, Asian American Studies plays a crucial role in analyzing and shaping economic, political, cultural, and international relations between Asia, the Pacific Islands, and the United States.

It's been years since she and her husband reigned supreme in Phillipine politics, but that has not stopped Imelda Marcos from still trying to grab the spotlight. Award-winning filmmaker Ramona S. Diaz picks up where her splendid film about Filipina activists, SPIRITS RISING (SFIAAFF 1996), ended, with Imelda Marcos attempting to cast herself as one of her country's heroines. With IMELDA , the Festival's Closing Night Film, Diaz allows the former dictator's wife to speak for herself. Through a seamless blend of archival footage, home movies, state-sponsored propaganda and personal testimonies, the film paints a picture of the boss's wife transforming herself from a provincial orphan into an infamous symbol of personal excess.

In the Mood for Crossover The SF Asian American Film Festival brings works by up-and-coming directors to San Jose By Jim Aquino A LL THIS TALK about the current Asian cinema crossover spearheaded by financially successful, critically acclaimed imports like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and In the Mood for Love is supposed to make me feel more optimistic about Asians breaking through Hollywood's glass ceiling and showing more clout, but it doesn't. Where are all the films about the Asian American experience? For me, real progress will begin the day Asian American filmmakers are taken as seriously by the mainstream as Spike Lee and John Singleton were at the height of the '90s "new black cinema" movement. Asian Americans may have a long way to go before reaching crossover success, but I guess the 19th San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival represents a minor yet significant victory. In recent years, this festival has started showing more of an emphasis on feature films by up-and-coming Asian filmmakers, particularly from America. For its final two days, the festival will present screenings in San Jose for the first time (March 17-18 at San Jose's Camera 3). This year's edition of the 11-day festival (which is organized by the National Asian American Telecommunications Association [NAATA]) is a breakthrough one for Filipino-American filmmakers because past editions have emphasized the works of East Asians.

Front Page In This Week's Issue Subscribe Advertise ... About AsianWeek November 12 - 18, 1998 Asian Americans and hip-hop BY OLIVER WANG It's been a long time coming, but Asian American hip-hop is finally breaking across the horizon. Asian American youths have long been a vital part of the hip-hop culture, a youthful style and music that defies easy categorization-as fans (hip-hoppers), breakdancers (B-boys), DJs (turntablists), writers (graffiti artists) and MCs (rappers). But their contributions have long gone unrecognized by many who perceived the music and culture in monochrome black and white. Asian American performers began emerging in the early 1990s, especially at college and community events. Politically-charged Asian American rap groups like the Asiatic Apostles (Davis, Calif.), Yellow Peril (New Jersey), and the Seoul Brothers (Seattle) started making small waves; while in the Bay Area and Los Angeles, squads of mostly Filipino American DJs and dancers were gaining notoriety. In more recent years, more groups have started to come out on the popular front, including L.A.'s Key Kool and DJ Rhettmatic, a Japanese American/Filipino American duo who released an independent album in 1995, Kosmonautz. But until the past month, there had been little else heard from Asian American groups.

Memoirs of a Young Asian American By Augustus Mangubat It was a bright, warm and sunny morning in early May, but when I woke up I knew that it was not going to be just another summer day. It was about to change my whole life forever. As I recall vividly, my aunt walked me to wait for my ride to the airport. My aunt, who eventually became my mentor and best friend for the past three years, told me to look around, for the last time, since I will truly miss the place that I called home and that it will never be the same. I was a 16-year-old boy that had mixed feelings. I was scared, hurt, not at all excited and extremely sad. I did not see anything good at the fact that I was leaving without the assurance of when I was coming back. Eight years later, I cannot think of a better way of how exciting my life had turned out to be had I not come to the States. That summer my whole family, with all the cousins, aunts, uncles and grand parents all went to Wisconsin Dells. They also took us to Six flags Great America, Downtown Chicago, Cherry Picking in Indiana and many other tourist spots in the tri-state area. My siblings and I were like tourists taking pictures everywhere of all the things that we thought were fascinating, which was practically everything. Later I was enrolled in summer school at Steinmetz high school in Chicago. I was warned by my parents about their idea of gangs and for me to always come straight home. I took a speech class where in I was able to deliver speeches with topics about my country. I captured the audience when I talked about the weather, the people and especially the food of the Philippines. Through this class, I was able to meet someone who is now one of my best friends.
