Our students have grown up in the shadow of two wars. Several student partners compared the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor with Al Qaeda’s attack on New York’s Twin Towers, using art, PowerPoint, and video. Two projects, one PowerPoint slideshow and one video, focused on the unwarranted suspicion leveled against Japanese Americans during World War II and Sikh Americans after 9/11. Ga and Yumeng compared the My Lai Massacre of the Vietnam War to the recent killing of civilians in Afghanistan by a US soldier. Ximena and Liliana’s PowerPoint presentation parallels the demonstrations of the Anti-Vietnam War Movement and the protests of the current Occupy Movement.
