    Raya and the Last  Dragon Writing Prompt:

    Raya and the Dragon (2021) was the first SE Asian Princess in Disney’s lineup. Did she represent many things to many people such as the first SE Asian Princess or the first LGQ+ princess? Who are the SE Asian Story Trust and how did they come to make this story? Is Raya an LGBTQ+ figure or is that just an actress saying that? How did they come up with the story?

    Answer: What does Raya represent in light of the history of marginalization of Asian American female actresses (see Anna May Wong actress forced roles Dragon Lady or Geisha Girl, or Lotus Blossom). Is she an improvement or does she have the same tropes?

    Address only ONE Topic A, B, C  following in the pap/er and answer if these are an authentic representation of SE Asian culture:

    Using the # Atlanta Syllabus (U. Of Wisconsin) and OUR class readings like Waves of War. Make an argument on how Raya and the last Dragon fits or does not fit stereotypes of Asian American women. Found:

    [ You must quote 8 times from #Atlanta and 2 times from our class.]

    Topic A:  How does Raya represent Asian/Asian American Women?

    Histories of Immigration and Exclusion in Raya, Disease and Contagion, Asianizing the COVID-19 Pandemic, Racial Fetishism and the Hyper sexualization of Asian Women,  Media Representations of Asian American Women

    Topic B: Raya is about SE Asia and SE Asia had many Secret Wars and long devastating imperialisms and colonialization of SE Asian. Please name all the different regimes of war in SE and correlate with Raya. Is there a correlation or not? Why are SE Asian atrocity invisible even in the film?

    Topic C: compare and contrast other Asian Disney Princesses such as Mulan, Moana and Raya and maybe that Lilo and Stitch female.
