NOTICE:
This photograph is racially offensive by today’s standards and an example of stereotyping Asian and Asian American people. This photo participates in the racism that was normalized and accepted by the dominant culture, but that has always been critiqued by Asian Americans. We include this photo in the archive to ensure that past cultural practices are remembered, interpreted, and dismantled.
Additional photographs and objects can be found at the University of Northern Iowa Museum/ Center for the History of Rural Iowa Education & Culture UNI Museum @ Rod Library (https://museum.library.uni.edu/) & The Rural School Collections at UNI | University of Northern Iowa (https://ruralschools.uni.edu/)
