Abstract

My involvement with the Global Honors Program culminates with a senior capstone project for T GH 496 Experiential Learning in Global Honors. Over the course of spring quarter, I had the opportunity to produce a documentary film, under the supervision of my faculty advisor, Dr. David Coon, to fulfill the requirements to graduate with a minor in Global Engagement and earn the full distinction from the program. My film actively engages with the intersection of the historical representations of Asian womxn and their lived experiences with dating. As of Wednesday, May 1, 2019, I have been able to interview 14 Asian womxn from around the world for the purpose of this project. My research question is: “How does xenophobia, racism, and sexism influence the public perception of Asian womxn and how they experience romantic relationships?” The film title I have selected is “subtle asian womxn.”
