Resumo
This article examines the inner experiences of two (im)migrant bodies, focusing on an Asian immigrant teacher and a British expatriate teacher across various temporal spaces. By addressing ordinary affect, the performative paradigm offers a space for writing marginal individuals into existence and preserving visceral experiences. Through 'betweener talk,' it produces geographies of affective knowledge and transformation over time. The ethical validity of embodied knowing underscores their specific situatedness. By engaging in reparative performance, it provides counter-narratives to essentialist views of people in mobility contexts. This article demonstrates how performative writing empowers (im)migrant bodies by highlighting their unique histories and the economic and socio-cultural forces that influence their desired futures.
