SUMMARY:Letters to Memory: A Reading by Karen Tei Yamashita
DESCRIPTION:The Critical Race and Ethnic Studies Department presents: \nLetters to Memory\nfeaturing a reading by Karen Tei Yamashita with remarks by Alice Yang and Christine Hong \nLetters to Memory is an excursion through the Japanese mass incarceration during World War II using archival materials from the Yamashita family as well as a series of epistolary conversations with composite characters representing a range of academic specialties. Historians\, anthropologists\, classicists—their disciplines\, and Yamashita’s engagement with them\, are a way for her to explore various aspects of the mass incarceration and to expand its meaning beyond her family\, and our borders\, to ideas of debt\, forgiveness\, civil rights\, orientalism\, and community. \nAbout the Author: Karen Tei Yamashita is a Professor of Literature and Critical Race & Ethnic Studies at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. Yamashita is the author of Letters to Memory\, Through the Arc of the Rain Forest\, Brazil-Maru\, Tropic of Orange\, Circle K Cycles\, I Hotel\, and Anime Wong\, all published by Coffee House Press. I Hotel was selected as a finalist for the National Book Award and awarded the California Book Award\, the American Book Award\, the Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association Award\, and the Association for Asian American Studies Book Award.

SUMMARY:Critical Race & Ethnic Studies Works In Progress
DESCRIPTION:“Delinquency As Labor”\nChrissy Anderson-Zavala \nChrissy Anderson-Zavala is a PhD candidate in education with designated emphases in critical race and ethnic studies and feminist studies at UC Santa Cruz. Her dissertation\, How to Write ‘Trouble/d Youth\,’ bridges participatory ethnographic work in a continuation high school and reading practices that “track the figure” of “trouble/d youth” in district and state-level archives to explore how narratives of young people as “trouble” (threat) or “troubled” (at-risk) inform the limits and possibilities of schooling. \n  \n  \n“BioRobotics: Surveillance at the Borders of AnimalHumanInsect”\nFelicity Amaya Schaeffer \nFelicity Amaya Schaeffer is an Associate Professor in the Feminist Studies Department here at UCSC. Her book\, Love and Empire: Cybermarriage and Citizenship Across the Americas\, was published in 2013 with NYU Press. She is working on a new project called “Tracking Migrants: Biosecurity Across Erotic Borders” that follows the de-humanization of Latina/o migrants branded as biothreats\, or deviant and criminal threats. In this project I follow the ways state surveillance remakes relations between technology-the-body-and nature\, and then decolonizes these state regimes through an Anzalduan approach to what I call an erotic cosmology: using the body as a technology to hone our senses deeper into the sensual relationality of human-animal-cosmic ontologies.
