From Yellow Peril through Model Minority to Renewed Yellow Peril

Doobo Shim

This study is a historical analysis of Asian American portrayals in entertainment media and a contextualization of their meaning in society. The general nature of Asian stereotypes and the racial formation projected in those stereotypes are examined. With knowledge of this history, the recent renewed propensity to depict Asians as "illegalists" will be understood more clearly.
