Abstract

The article explores the students-generated movement that birthed Asian American Studies in the late 1960s and addresses the needs of students in the field. It notes the efforts of Asian American students for more relevant and accessible education to their communities, influenced by the Civil Rights Movement and international liberation struggles. Mentioned is the structured curricula created by scholars that emphasized the nature of social identities including race, gender, and sexuality.
