Storytelling and the Squint
Climate Lyricism
In Climate Lyricism Min Hyoung Song articulates a climate change-centered reading practice that foregrounds how climate is present in most literature. Song shows how literature, poetry, and essays by Tommy Pico, Solmaz Sharif, Frank O’Hara, Ilya Kaminsky, Claudia Rankine, Kazuo Ishiguro, Teju Cole, Richard Powers, and others help us to better grapple with our everyday encounters with climate change and its disastrous effects, which are inextricab…
Literary Criticism
Literary Criticism Min Hyoung Song, Chair, Anne-Marie Lee-Loy, and Jennifer Ho We are unanimous in our admiration of Dorothy Wang’s Thinking Its Presence: Form, Race and Subjectivity in Contemporary Asian American Poetry (Stanford University Press, 2014). Dorothy Wang writes in an engaging, even riveting, style, and as a result her exploration into the subjectivities of Asian American poets and their poetry flows easily between its points. The bo…

Forum Introduction: Whiteness Redux or Redefined
This introduction observes that claims that the 2008 election of President Barack Obama heralded the dawn of a "postracial" moment in US history have proved false in the intervening years. In addition to the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, greater awareness of widening wealth and income inequality, and environmental crises, a number of incidents call attention to the continued significance of white privilege and white supremacy. This does n…

Strange Future: Pessimism and the 1992 Los Angeles Riots
Sometime near the start of the 1990s, the future became a place of national decline. The United States had entered a period of great anxiety fueled by the shrinking of the white middle class, the increasingly visible misery of poor urban blacks, and the mass immigration of nonwhites. Perhaps more than any other event marking the passage through these dark years, the 1992 Los Angeles riots have sparked imaginative and critical works reacting to th…

Sentimentalism and Sui Sin Far
Perhaps it was because some "funny people" saw Sui Sin Far, the earliest known American author of Chinese ancestry to write in English, struggling to survive and publish that they advised her to "trade upon" her "nationality." As she relates in her autobiographical essay, "Leaves from the Mental Portfolio of a Eurasian,"
