Feminist Archipelagic Poetics
This discusses the need for feminist archipelagic analyses of transpacific American military empire, as well as feminist archipelagic tactics of island-based solidarities and resistance.It begins by charting historical and contemporary resonances between Okinawa and Guam in regards to settler colonialism, imperialism, and militarism. Gandhi proposes a literary model of feminist archipelagic poetics, with a particularly emphasis on feminist tactics of mapping, digital activism, and Indigenous sovereignty.
