Contemporary Issues And
Images Of Asian-Americans
[ send
me this paper ]
8 pages in length. The notion of cultural assimilation carries with it
significant challenges for those who strive to adapt to an entirely new way of
life. The manner by which issues are addressed in Asian-American media provides
one with a significantly better understanding of just how difficult a time
myriad Asians have had while attempting to reconstruct their entire cultural
existence. Various media formats have adopted a perspective on Asian
ethnocentricity in such a way as to clearly illustrate these challenges, with
film, television and print offering much the same viewpoints. The vast issues
that are presented compare to historical depiction by way of carrying forth the
continuing difficulties that exist within Asian-American populations, inasmuch
as historical communities reflected much the same obstacles that exist within
contemporary society. When one examines the importance of such media attention
with regard to the Asian-American society, literary contribution is one area
that cannot be overlooked, and Amy Tan is one writer who is at the forefront of
accurate depiction. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
