SUMMARY:Importance of Narratives: Incorporating AAPI Voices into the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nAccording to the Pew Research Center\, the Asian population in the United States nearly doubled from 2000 to 2019 and yet only about 24% of those surveyed felt well informed about AAPI history in this country. Many cite the internet or social media being the primary platform of information. Without a doubt\, there is a need for more education on AAPI history in this country. This session will highlight the multiplicity and heterogeneity of “Asian American” as a social and political category through the use of maps. The maps will include specific information about populations identified as Indian\, Filipino\, Japanese\, Korean\, and Vietnamese and how the geographic clustering of these groups changed over time as a result of social\, economic\, or political forces. The workshop will also incorporate use of the Galtung Triangle to provide educators a framework of how to discuss injustices that may occur over time. \nAudience Focus\nMiddle School\, High School\, Advanced Placement\, Higher Education \nMeet the Presenter\nJeanne Shin-Cooper has been a public high school educator for twenty years.
