Turath aw Hadara
"From archives to community building, this video engages U.S. histories of racialization and objectification through and documentation of discussions and participation with the Arab/Muslim community of Dearborn and Detroit, Michigan. As a video-collaboration between Qais Assali and Jose Luis Benavides created for the exhibit “Costume Party at the Moslem Temple” at MSU Union Gallery (2019) this work culls various collections, original footage and conversations with an ex-Playboy Bunny and community activist as well, to chart the often overlooked history of orientalism, Islamophobia and minstrel brown-facing, or Arab-facing inherent though invisible to our discussions of American racism in order to question the limits of our awareness and our true understanding of culture and civilization."

The Curse of Quon Gwon: When the Far East Mingles with the West
The Curse of Quon Gwon is the oldest known Chinese-American film and one of the earliest American silent features made by a woman. Only two reels of the film survive, and no intertitles are known to exist, making it difficult to parse out the exact plot. An article in the July 17, 1917 issue of The Moving Picture World states that the film "deals with the curse of a Chinese god that follows his people because of the influence of western civilization." The film also touches on themes of Chinese assimilation into American society. Formally premiering in 1917, no distributor was willing to purchase a Chinese-American film without racial stereotypes. Considered a devastating financial failure, the film was only screened two more times until its rediscovery in 2004. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2005.
