Towards Empathy
Towards Empathy: A Conversation with Vichet Chum Cathy J. Schlund-Vials (bio) and Vichet Chum (bio) Ma used to say because the Khmer Rouge invaded on the new year...we’ve learned to mourn and celebrate in the same breath. Vichet Chum, Bald Sisters Thirteen days before the American War in Vietnam (1959–1975) came to a dramatic close with the April 30, 1975 “Fall of Saigon,” the Khmer Rouge (a.k.a. “Red Cambodians”) marched triumphantly into Cambod…

Love and Resistance in a Time of Covid
Love and Resistance in a Time of COVID: American Studies and Utopic Critique Cathy J. Schlund-Vials (bio) Black Lives Matter is really an affirmation for our people. It’s a love note for our people, but it’s also a demand. Even if we are going to get an indictment or a guilty verdict, that actually would not provide us with the larger vision of liberation that our communities actually deserve. . . . we deserve to live in a world where we are not …
Afterword-The Racialized Past is Racist Prologue
Situated adjacent to the essentializing logics and combative rhetorics that have largely defined the Trump administration's "war" on history, specifically regarding initiatives such as the "White House Conference on American History" and the "1776 Commission," this afterword considers the distinctive significance and ongoing consequence of ethnic American literary engagements with a frequently debated and still unreconciled US past. To illustrate…
Diaspora Revisited
This essay explores how Operation Urgent Fury, the invasion of Grenada in 1983, shapes diasporic subjectivity. Examining Audre Lorde's "Grenada Revisited" (1984) and Monica Sok's "Yearning" (2016), the author argues that these two texts dialogically form a diasporic feminist synthesis that refuses—in the face of overpowering American military might, bellicose melancholy, diasporic loss, and pervasive indifference—to disremember. Ultimately, it is…
Tactical Resistance and Strategic Remembrance
Early in Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man (1952), the unnamed narrator recollects his grandfather’s final piece of advice. Expressly, the grandfather avers: Son, after I’m gone I want you to keep up the good fight. I never told you, but our life is a war and I have been a traitor all my born days, a spy in the enemy’s country since I give up my gun back in the Reconstruction. Live with your head in the lion’s mouth. I want you to overcome ’em with y…

Anti-Imperialist Modernism
On 8 November 1931, the New York Times published an anonymously authored piece titled, “Ills of Cuba Laid to Our Policy Over There.” Reporting on a lecture delivered by Cuban editor, lawyer, and ethnomusicologist/anthropologist Dr. Fernando Ortiz to the Committee on Cultural Relations with Latin America, this provocatively titled article focused specifically on the vexed question of US intervention. Just three months prior, on 14 August, Cuba had…
Evincing Cambodia's Genocide
Despite the passage of almost four decades since the end of the so-known “Killing Fields Era,” to date only three Khmer Rouge officials have been successfully tried and convicted for crimes against humanity. This article opens with such “belatedness” as a means of contextualizing the juridical politics of and historical indictments embedded in Rithy Panh's The Missing Picture (2013)
The Subjects of 1975
Set against a backdrop of contemporary refugee crises, this epilogue considers the strategic amensias of displaced forgetting - particularly as it concerns diasporic Southeast Asian Americans - and evaluates the efficacy of a critical refugee studies approach in militating against these erasures

Interrogating the perpetrator
Unbecoming Americans
With little celebration and no formal ceremony, the first federal immigration station on Ellis Island, New York opened its proverbial doors on January 1, 1892. The next day, a New York Times article titled “Landed on Ellis Island: New Immigration Buildings Opened Yesterday” detailed the station’s inauspicious beginnings and initial reception. Previously, would-be Americans traveled to the Barge Office, located on the southern tip of the Battery (…
Drawing from Resistance
Cathy Schlund-Vials's essay examines the groundbreaking Asian American graphic narrative collection, Secret Identities (2009). Schlund-Vials argues that the comic's form provides Asian American artists and writers to speculate on non-normative and exceptional identities by putting a twist on the all-American superhero folklore. According to Schlund-Vials's analysis, graphic narratives offer a culture venue to explore alternative histories and ide…

Cambodian American Memory Work
This essay examines the impact of transnational historical amnesias on Cambodian American genocidal remembrance. Arguing that the “Cambodian syndrome” revises the “Vietnam syndrome” in a manner that legitimizes contemporary US and Cambodian governmental power, this essay shifts to an overview of Cambodian American cultural production in order to explore the status of memory in the country of origin and the country of settlement, and to illustrate…

Re‐seeing race in a post‐Obama age
Focused on comparative ethnic studies and intersectionality, the author commences with a discussion about Barack Obama's historic inauguration and the Asian American literature classroom. Such historical and educational frames foreground a deeper discussion about the possibilities and challenges associated with cross‐cultural, cross‐racial pedagogies within Asian American studies and ethnic studies
Modeling Citizenship
Navigating deftly among historical and literary readings, Cathy Schlund-Vials examines the analogous yet divergent experiences of Asian Americans and Jewish Americans in Modeling Citizenship. She investigates how these model minority groups are shaped by the shifting terrain of naturalization law and immigration policy, using the lens of naturalization, not assimilation, to underscore questions of nation-state affiliation and sense of belonging. …
War, Genocide, and Justice
In the three years, eight months, and twenty days of the Khmer Rouge’s deadly reign over Cambodia, an estimated 1.7 million Cambodians perished as a result of forced labor, execution, starvation, and disease. Despite the passage of more than thirty years, two regime shifts, and a contested U.N. intervention, only one former Khmer Rouge official has been successfully tried and sentenced for crimes against humanity in an international court of law …

Through a close reading of Cambodian American rapper praCh's Dalama: The End'n Is Just the Beginnin’, I argue that his work embodies musical traditions, histories, and experiences from both the country of origin and the country of settlement.
