No Coupons: Eddie Huang’s Speech on Immigration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVhg3KN59ew
Aziz Ansari Stand-up Monologue – SNL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Whde50AacZs
After watching reading the article and watching the clips, compare and contrast the experiences of Cathy Park Hong, Eddie Huang, and Aziz Ansari. These are all figures that are ostensibly a part of “Asian America,” yet they also hail from different cultural backgrounds with their own experiences and concerns. What are the similarities in the concerns that they address, despite those differences? How do you think their experiences might be reflective of broader Asian American issues?
(While tempting to just view media, make sure that you incorporate your responses based off Hong’s excerpt as well.)
