Come to URCAD on Wednesday, April 26 and check out Takreem Zulfiqar's presentation on "When East Dates West: A Study of Asian American Interracial Relationships in American Television Comedies".
"When East Dates West" is an exploration on Interracial relationships. Television, specifically comedy programs, are a cultural forum that allow marginalized groups a platform where they can create and take part in the American narrative. Because television is an important tool in shaping American popular culture it affects perceptions of Asian Americans and restricts their role as Americans with agency and individuality.
