"

A critical engagement with and interrogation of the dominant tropes of racial violence

This volume brings together a diverse cohort of contributors working to trace the genealogies, geographies, and the entanglements of anti-Asian violence. Representing a range of critical perspec­tives, these essays—a collection of works by scholars, students, and community organizers—open up lines of inquiry that unsettle the taken-for-granted framings of anti-Asian violence as simply a matter of """"hate.""""

Intimacies of Anti-Asian Violence makes crucial connections enabled by transnational, inter­sectional, comparative, and critical lenses, collectively interrogating the complex linkages between imperialist and settler colonial histories, modalities of violence, and the geopolitical formation of Asia and Asianness.

Working through and between a range of critical frameworks, including but not limited to the Black radical tradition, feminist and queer critiques, Indigenous and decolonial perspectives, critical pedagogies, and the anti-caste movement, this volume provides an original and layered interven­tion that strives to complicate the discourse of anti-Asian violence and attends to the multiple and different ways Asia and its diasporas can be located in relation to varied permutations of violence.

Importantly and powerfully, the insights offered in Intimacies of Anti-Asian Violence point toward the possibilities for solidarities and movement-building across racial, ethnic, class, and gendered lines in the contemporary moment.
