This public
dialogue on
xenophobia/philia
in the (Asian)
American
context,
energized by some of
the critical and
creative voices
from inside and
outside the
Ivory Tower,
celebrates the
beginning of a
stimulating
series of
faculty seminars
in Asian
American Studies
at the Asian
American / Asian
Research
Institute. At
this launch
event, panelists
will explore
various
embodiments of
the “foreigner”
question, the
theme of the
year 2010,
focusing on its
aesthetic,
moral, and
political harms,
implications and
future: how deep
is its
everydayness and
randomness?
Panelists will
offer their own
unique
perspectives on
how they
understand the
term or
conceptual pair,
xenophobia/philia,
and why this
issue deserves
more critical
attention;
followed by Q& A
with the
audience.
Panelists
Series Organizer:
Kyoo Lee,
Assistant
Professor of
Philosophy at
John Jay
College, CUNY,
and a Resident
Mellon Fellow at
CUNY Graduate
Center.
