Question:  The Onizuka Prop Wash Award was named in memory of irst Asian American and the first person of Japanese ancestry to what?

<P0-S0> Asian American literature is the body of literature produced in the United States by writers of Asian descent. <P0-S1>  Asian American literature became a category during the 1970s but didn't see a direct impact in viewership until later in the 1970s. <P0-S2>  Perhaps the earliest references to Asian American literature appeared with David Hsin-fu Wand's "Asian American Heritage: An Anthology of Prose and Poetry", published in 1974. <P0-S3>  One of the earlier pieces of Asian American literature produced by Combined Asian Resources Project (CARP) was "Aiiieeeee! <P0-S4>  An Anthology of Asian-American Writers" (1974). <P0-S5>  This anthology collected staples of long-forgotten Asian American literature and criticized the lack of visibility of this literature. <P0-S6>  This anthology brought to light the necessity of visibility and criticism of Asian American literature; with visibility came recognition of new literature. <P0-S7>  Elaine Kim's seminal book of criticism, "Asian American Literature: An Introduction to the Writings and Their Social Context", was published in 1982 and was the first critical book on the topic. <SEP> <P1-S0>  He died in the destruction of the Space Shuttle "Challenger", on which he was serving as Mission Specialist for mission STS-51-L. <P1-S1> Ellison Shoji Onizuka (June 24, 1946 – January 28, 1986 ) was an American astronaut from Kealakekua, Hawaii, who successfully flew into space with the Space Shuttle "Discovery" on STS-51-C. <P1-S2>  He was the first Asian American and the first person of Japanese ancestry to reach space. <SEP> <P2-S0> Aiiieeeee! <P2-S1>  An Anthology of Asian-American Writers is a 1974 anthology by Frank Chin, Jeffery Paul Chan, Lawson Fusao Inada, Shawn Wong and other members of the Combined Asian Resources Project (CARP). <P2-S2>  It helped establish Asian American Literature as a field by recovering and collecting representative selections from Chinese-, Japanese-, and Filipino-Americans from the past fifty years—many of whom had been mostly forgotten. <P2-S3>  This pan-Asian anthology included selections from Carlos Bulosan, Diana Chang, Louis Chu, Momoko Iko, Wallace Lin, Toshio Mori, John Okada, Oscar Peñaranda, Sam Tagatac, Hisaye Yamamoto, Wakako Yamauchi, many of whom are now staples in Asian American literature course. <P2-S4>  Because of this anthology and the work of CARP, many of these authors have been republished; at that time, however, they received little attention from publishers critics because they didn't subscribe to popular stereotypes but depicted what Elaine H. Kim calls the "unstereotyped aspects of Asian American experience". <P2-S5>  The "aiiieeeee!" <P2-S6>  of the title comes from a stereotypical expression used by Asian characters in old movies, radio and television shows, comic books, etc. <P2-S7>  These same stereotypes affected the anthology itself: when the editors tried to find a publisher, they had to turn to a historically African-American press because, as Chin states:The blacks were the first to take us seriously and sustained the spirit of many Asian American writers... [I]t wasn't surprising to us that Howard University Press understood us and set out to publish our book with their first list. <P2-S8>  They liked our English we spoke [sic] and didn't accuse us of unwholesome literary devices. <SEP> <P3-S0> The Onizuka Prop Wash Award recognizes the student at the United States Air Force Test Pilot School (USAF TPS) who contributed most to class spirit and morale. <P3-S1>  The honoree from each class is selected by his or her fellow students rather than by school faculty. <P3-S2>  The award is named in memory of TPS graduate Ellison Onizuka who perished in the explosion of the Space Shuttle "Challenger" in 1986.
