Race and Empathy in GB Tran’s Vietnamerica
Racial Feelings
Jeffrey Santa Ana’s Racial Feelings: Asian America in a Capitalist Culture of Emotion makes a critical contribution to the recent body of scholarship on emotion specifically addressing race and ethnicity, including works by Sara Ahmed and the late José Muñoz. In Racial Feelings , Santa Ana explores how capitalism and liberal ideology not only shape the American notion of happiness but also play a central role in racializing Asian Americans. Racia…
Introduction
Introduction: Decolonizing Narrative Theory Sue J. Kim (bio) “Behind the claims and counter-claims, the ‘foreign’ scholar-critics and ‘native’ claimants of ‘natural’ proprietary rights to critical insight lies a vastly displaced play of unequal power relations between the two camps . . . this situation may involve impersonal power relationships on an international, global scale.” Biodun Jeyifo, “The Nature of Things: Arrested Decolonization and C…
On anger
On Anger examines the dynamics of racial anger in global late capitalism, bringing into conversation work on political anger in ethnic, postcolonial, and cultural studies with recent studies on emotion in cognitive studies. Kim uses a variety of literary and media texts to show how narratives serve as a means of reflecting on experiences of anger and also how we think about anger--its triggers, its deeper causes, its wrongness or rightness. The n…
Thoughts on “Puzzling Out the Self”
Frederick Luis Aldama and Partrick Colm Hogan turn to advances in the brain sciences to pick up the age-old question and discussion: what constitutes the self? Their conversation begins with a discussion of the neurochemical makeup of the brain and addresses the more global recursive activities that involve all parts of the brain as it is exists in a body that is grown within a social context shaped by time and place. Such a materialist based und…
Critiquing Postmodernism in Contemporary Discourses of Race
Critiquing Postmodernism in Contemporary Discourses of Race challenges the critical emphasis on otherness in treatments of race in literary and cultural studies. Sue J. Kim deftly argues that this tre
Narrator, Author, Reader
Narrator, Author, Reader:Equivocation in Theresa Hak Kyung Cha's Dictee Sue J. Kim (bio) Theresa Hak Kyung Cha's 1980 experimental text, Dictee, has garnered a great deal of critical attention. In Asian American studies in particular, analyses of the text have gone hand in hand with efforts to theorize poststructuralist subjectivity and postnationalism in the critical turn against unified subjectivity and reactionary nationalisms, and towards fra…
The Dialectics of "Oriental" Images in American Trade Cards
A late nineteenth-century trade card, or a color-printed circulating advertisement, touts Shepherd and Doyle's new "Celluloid" waterproof collars, cuffs and shirt bosoms (Fig. 1).1 These "economical, durable, and handsome" clothing items require less starching and washing, and so remove the need for Chinese laundries. The text on the reverse side includes directions on how "to remove yellow stains," and the image enacts a kind of literal version …
Apparatus
This article questions the widespread notion that the disruption of aesthetic forms by marginal writers necessarily constitutes political resistance. It locates Theresa Hak Kyung Cha's work within the politically ambivalent avant-grade aestheticsÑincluding New Wave film and psychoanalytic film theoryÑexplored in Cha's earlier anthology, Apparatus: Cinematographic Apparatus. Situating Cha's work within its aesthetic contexts demonstrates that it i…
