Asian Canada Is Burning: Theories, Methods, Pedagogies, and Praxes: Studies in Critical Social Sciences, cartea 299

Rose Ann Torres, Ian Liujia Tian, Coly Chau
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 ian 2025
Asian Canada is Burning is an invitation to trouble the mobilization of “anti-Asian hate” in the aftermath of COVID-19 pandemic. Bringing together activists, organizers, academic, and artists, this book explores the historical and contemporary conditions that make theorizing “Asian Canadian” feasible. Grounded in a transnational queer and feminist lens, this book also aims to envision possible futures and solidarities. Ultimately, this collection is concerned with moments and places of tensions, confrontations, relations, and solidarity. We offer stories of insurgent encounters as people who identify as “Asian” navigate and implicate settler colonial nation-state to make new dreams, histories and intimacies.
