The stories of Asian American women extend far beyond the geographic
borders of the United States. Inspired by tales and objects from
family history, their narratives often reflect the transnational
nature of Asian American women's lives. Despite the importance of
these narratives to expanding and complicating our understanding of
war, migration, inequity, and difference, the accounts and
perspectives of Asian American women have often been overlooked in
formal records, and the tangible objects providing critical evidence
of their histories have been ignored. This half-day program will bring
together Asian American activists and artists, including novelists,
filmmakers, playwrights, and photographers, to share the stories that
inspire their craft and the objects they retain as part of their
personal histories. Register online.
