Editor's Preface Rick Bonus This JAAS issue begins with an essay that traces and ruminates on the earliest known histories of the public appearance of Filipino performers on the US mainland, who, in many pivotal ways, introduced turn-of-the-twentieth-century American audiences to people they had not seen before. Foundational to these first encounters via traveling shows was the shifting and expanding geographic reach of the US empire beyond its W…

Filipinx American Studies
This volume spotlights the unique suitability and situatedness of Filipinx American studies both as a site for reckoning with the work of historicizing U.S. empire in all of its entanglements, as well as a location for reclaiming and theorizing the interlocking histories and contemporary trajectories of global capitalism, racism, sexism, and heteronormativity. It encompasses an interrogation of the foundational status of empire in the interdiscip…
Addressing The Interlocking Impact Of Colonialism And Racism On Filipinx/a/o American Health Inequities
Within the monolithic racial category of “Asian American,” health determinants are often hidden within each subgroup’s complex histories of indigeneity, colonialism, migration, culture, and socio-political systems. Although racism is typically framed to underscore the ways in which various institutions (for example, employment and education) disproportionately disadvantage Black/Latinx communities over White people, what does structural racism lo…
Navigating the Ocean in the School
This article engages with practices of ethnographic storytelling to perform a structural critique of US schooling from the perspectives of Pacific Islander students attending a university far from their ancestral homelands. Deploying indigeneity to comprehend how their schooling is meaningfully connected to their histories of imperial colonization and their resistances to it, these students’ specific understandings of the ocean enable them to tra…
Editor’s Preface
Editor’s Preface Rick Bonus Our first essay in this issue, on the experiences of Arabs/Muslims as “censusless” in U.S. society, opens a conversation about what it means for a group to be considered outsiders by a state or a community. For Loubna Qutami, who writes about the racial classification of Arab Americans in official counts and social discourse, this status is perplexing and paradoxical, reflecting both the targeting of Arabs as suspect s…
Editor’s Preface
Editor’s Preface Rick Bonus In our daily lives we tend to inhabit space almost all the time in imperceptible ways. Amidst all the flurry of working, playing, of doing whatever, our minds are oftentimes not attuned to space’s configurations, qualities, even histories. It’s as if our spaces are meant to be this way, to be unnoticeable. We take space for granted, even though we live in it and exist through it. Until, that is, when space’s effects on…

Editor’s Preface
Editor’s Preface Rick Bonus My turn as JAAS editor beginning with this issue comes at a moment of great anxiety and uncertainty. As I’m writing this preface several months before its actual publication, we’ve been reeling from the nightmare that’s been unnecessarily placed upon many of our students due to the president’s rescission of the DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) program. We’re facing continuing battles over the management of…
Editor’s Preface
Editor’s Preface Rick Bonus Among the many areas of interest that writers in Asian American studies engage in, the phenomenon of social mobility ranks as one of the most popular. Understood oftentimes as a defining characteristic of American society when figured as a quest—the advancement of one’s social position, that is—it assertively announces a very persistent kind of American exceptionalism that harks back to the earliest critiques of Britis…
Filipino Studies
After years of occupying a vexed position in the American academy, Philippine studies has come into its own, emerging as a trenchant and dynamic space of inquiry. Filipino Studies is a field-defining collection of vibrant voices, critical perspectives, and provocative ideas about the cultural, political, and economic state of the Philippines and its diaspora. Traversing issues of colonialism, neoliberalism, globalization, and nationalism, this vo…
