Christine R. Yano (Professor Emeritus, University of Hawai’i-Mānoa) and Corinne Mitsuye Sugino (Assistant Professor of English, Ohio State) will address the concept of Global Asias as a cross-disciplinary framework that pushes us out of historical practices of Asian Studies, and into conversation with Asian American studies, Asian diasporic studies, and more. Through these new adjacencies, the idea of radical listening — deep, empathic sensory interweaving of ourselves with others —opens our ears to new relationalities, including social justice. Refreshments will be provided.
Co-hosted by the Department of English and the Center for Ethnic Studies
