This teaching innovation focuses on the uptick in discriminatory rhetoric and actions, hostility, violence, and xenophobic messaging towards Asian Americans. As a nation, we have been struggling to produce nondiscriminatory, trustworthy, and even-handed coverage of Asian-American communities. Hence, Anti-Asian bias runs rampant and was especially pervasive during the coronavirus outbreak. My aim is not to task students with just highlighting the unsung heroes or shedding a positive light on the Asian-American experience. It’s an deep dive into missing context, misreporting and underreporting anti-Asian hate crimes and sentiments. Finally, we will question how Asian Americans are seen and perceived by mass or traditional media institutions by scrutinizing works published in the last few years.
