The Yellow Journal is an annual publication of the Asian American Studies Department at SF State that showcases student works from various AAS and Ethnic Studies courses throughout the year. It is partially funded by the University’s Instructionally Related Activities grant. The journal began in 1983 under Professor Jeffery P. Chan (1983-2005). Professors Lorraine Dong (2003-09), Malcolm Collier (2003), Anantha Sudhakar (2014- present) and Wesley Ueunten (2010-present) became subsequent faculty advisors for the journal.

From 1989-92 and 1997-2007, Asian American Studies co-sponsored with the Chinese Historical Society of America, the country’s first and still extant journal dedicated to the study of Chinese America entitled, Chinese America: History and Perspectives. The 2007 volume is dedicated to the conference proceedings of “Branching Out the Banyan Tree” that was co-sponsored by AAS and CHSA in 2005.
