Presented by the Interdisciplinary Humanities Center.

This discussion featured close readings and analysis of UC Berkeley’s Andrew Way Leong’s forthcoming book, “A Queer, Queer Race: Orientations for Japanese/American Literature,” which examines Japanese and English language texts written by authors who resided in the United States between the opening of mass Japanese emigration in 1885 and the Immigration Act of 1924.
