This Web Magazine is the creation of students from African American Studies M195 and Asian American Studies M163, Fall Quarter 1997 at UCLA. Currently at UCLA, this is the only class cross-listed between African American Studies and Asian American Studies, and it represents the continuation of the legacy of interethnic unity that led to the creation of Ethnic Studies programs at various colleges and universities (see course syllabus -- provide a link to the course syllabus here). All writings posted in this magazine were written by students in this class. Writings posted here may be reprinted, but please request permission -- contact class instructor, Glenn Omatsu (gomatsu@ucla.edu).
