Description: This is a list of discussion questions for the book Asian American Histories of the United States by Catherine Ceniza Choy (2022). They were originally created for an independent community book club.
Thematic Focus: These discussion questions aim to help participants make meaning of the history they are reading about: inquiring how the history makes the reader feel, how it informs their own Asian American identity, and how it compares or contrasts to their own personal experiences.

Description: This is list of interview questions that correspond to the video “Taiwanese American Immigration History” by Chungchin Chin & Yehru Lee which can be found here on YouTube.
Background: My mom sent me this video that tells the story of many Taiwanese American immigrants who came to the U.S. to study in the 1960s & 1970s. The video is more generalized, but I thought it would make a great jumping off point for immigrants to tell more details about their own personal stories and share family history, my parents included. I wrote up these interview questions to help them reflect on and tell about their experiences.
Description: This is a chart that describes the Four Pillar of White Supremacy, adapted from the book I Bring the Voices of My People by Chanequa Walker-Barnes, and includes specific examples that relate to the Asian American experience.
