Course Description
This colloquium utilizes Chinese food, film, and fairytale as platforms to explore how different cultures are integrated into our everyday practices, and how we reconstruct and maintain our identities at the levels of everyday life on campus, local community engagement, the American lifestyle, and global interaction. Through these approaches, we will gain a deeper understanding of the migration and integration of diverse human cultures, reflect upon the impact of colonial stereotypes, and learn to read, write and think critically. Some of the activities include identifying things Chinese/Asian or African on our campus, hearing the stories told by the dishes in our cafeteria and the plants around us, examining the beauty of nature mirrored in films and tales, playing with birds and waters with our own sounds, and experiencing the harmony of human and nature. By analyzing cases like fortune cookies and chop suey in Chinese restaurants, the images of Mulan, Panda, Nezha, and Fu Manchu in films, the computer games like Genshin and Black Myth: Wukong, we learn about the life-views toward health and happiness in Chinese and other cultures, and prepare ourselves to be global citizens.
