摘要

2021年，伊利诺伊州成为美国第一个要求K-12学生学习亚裔美国人历史的州。伊利诺伊州通过了众议院376号法案(H.B. 376)，俗称《公平亚裔美国人社区历史教学法案》(TEAACH)，从而实现了这一目标。H.B. 376号法案因是同类法案中的第一个而受到赞扬，它的通过激发了新泽西州、康涅狄格州和罗德岛州的类似法案。考虑到该法案的影响力，必须考虑其措辞和用途。这一批判性的政策分析特别调查了立法者对“亚裔美国人”一词的使用。分析最终认为，H.B. 376是打破亚裔美国人几个世纪以来的沉默和混乱的必要的第一步;然而，该法案推进了对“亚裔美国人”的社会定义或社会政治理解，这可能是有害的。

Unpacking Legal Advancements for Asian American Students: A Political Discourse Analysis of Illinois’s House Bill 376

In 2021, Illinois became the first state in the United States to require that K-12 students learn about Asian American history. Illinois achieved this when lawmakers passed House Bill 376 (H.B. 376), colloquially known as the Teaching Equitable Asian American Community History (TEAACH) Act. H.B. 376 received praise for being the first legislation of its kind, and its passage inspired similar bills in New Jersey, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Given the bill’s influence, it is imperative to consider its language and utility. This critical policy analysis specifically investigates lawmakers’ employment of the term “Asian American.” The analysis ultimately argues that H.B. 376 is a necessary first step in breaking centuries of silence and dislocation for Asian Americans; however, the bill advances a social definition—or sociopolitical understanding—of “Asian American” that is potentially harmful.
