SUMMARY:Filipina Suffragists of the Twentieth Century: Confronting Race\, Gender\, and Empire in the Fight for Voting Rights
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Sulo: The Philippine Studies Initiative at NYU. Co-sponsored by the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU\, Espacio de Culturas at NYU\, New York Southeast Asia Network (NYSEAN)\, Rutgers Center for Immigrant Justice\, NYU School of Law Birnbaum Women’s Leadership Center\, and FANHS Metro New York. \nREGISTER \nThis lecture explores the significant yet overlooked contributions of Filipina Americans to the suffrage movements in both the United States and the Philippines during the early twentieth century. Despite the centennial anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment’s ratification in 1920\, the role of Filipina American suffragettes remains underexplored. By uncovering their stories\, this lecture will discuss how their advocacy intersected with broader national and global efforts to dismantle the racial\, gendered\, and imperial barriers to women’s voting rights. \n\nRose Cuison-Villazor is professor of law and Chancellor’s Social Justice Scholar at Rutgers Law School where she previously served as interim co-dean (2021-23) and vice dean (2019-2021). Professor Cuison-Villazor is also director of the Center for Immigrant Justice\, which conducts publicly engaged research and policy work on progressive immigration and citizenship laws. She is an elected member of the American Law Institute. Her overall research agenda examines the extent to which laws\, policies\, and norms include and exclude individuals and groups from membership. She teaches and writes in the areas of immigration and citizenship law\, property law\, and race and the law. She is visiting scholar at the A/P/A Institute at NYU.\n\n  \nNYU campus access guidelines: The event is in-person only. It is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Please note that seating is limited. \nAccessibility note: Please email Dale Maglalang at dam506@nyu.edu for any access needs at least two weeks in advance.

SUMMARY:Art\, Identity and Legacy:  Ching Ho Cheng\, Miguel Ferrando\, and Tseng Kwong
DESCRIPTION:The sisters of three artists lost to AIDS speak about caring for their brother’s legacies and the role of identity in their work.\n\n\nSybao Cheng-Wilson (Estate of Ching Ho Cheng)\, Teresa Ferrando Kleint (Estate of Miguel Ferrando)\, and Muna Tseng (Estate of Tseng Kwong Chi) speak about caring for their brother’s legacies and how the role of identity has been navigated posthumously. \n \nIdentity looms large as a rubric for attending to artistic legacies. With dedication to more expansive cultural histories in regard to race\, diaspora\, gender\, sexuality\, and HIV status\, this approach is essential. But tensions and slippages often arise when applying identity-based analysis retroactively\, especially for artists whose work was made against autobiographical interpretation. \nDuring this event\, short presentations will introduce the work of three artists who immigrated to New York City and developed their practice in relation to distinct artistic scenes. In the conversation that follows\, the artist’s sisters – all stewards of their sibling’s legacies for over thirty years – will reflect on the often gendered labor of legacy work and their role in translating the artistic\, social\, and political concerns of a deceased artist into contemporary discourse. \nModerated by Chelsea Spengemann\, Executive Director\, Soft Network and Jayne Cole\, Co-curator of “Legacies” at 80WSE. With an introduction by Kyle Croft\, Executive Director\, Visual AIDS. \n \nAttendees are encouraged to view work by all three artists before the event. Work by Ching Ho Cheng and Tseng Kwong Chi is on view at 80WSE as part of “Legacies: Asian American Art Movements in New York City (1969-2001)\,” curated by Howie Chen and Jayne Cole. Work by Miguel Ferrando is on view at Candice Madey Gallery as part of “Darrel Ellis and Miguel Ferrando.” \n\n\nParticipants\nSybao Cheng-Wilson has worked as a model and fashion designer. In 1950\, her family immigrated to New York from Cuba\, where her father had held a diplomatic post for the Republic of China. Her brother\, Ching Ho Cheng (1946–1989)\, lived in the Chelsea Hotel in the 1970s\, where he mingled with the avant-garde of New York and produced a body of work that ranges from psychedelic paintings and airbrushed still lifes to torn paper and alchemical reactions. \nMuna Tseng is an acclaimed choreographer and the founder of Muna Tseng Dance Projects. Raised in Hong Kong\, she moved to New York in 1978 with her brother\, the photographer Tseng Kwong Chi (1950–1990). Kwong Chi was part of the downtown arts scene of the 1980s and is best known for his self-portrait series East Meets West in which he poses in front of iconic tourist sites in a Mao suit. \nTeresa Ferrando Kleint and her brother Miguel Ferrando (1957–1996) moved to New York from Santo Domingo\, Dominican Republic in the early 1960s. From the late 1970s\, Miguel was active as a painter and performer in downtown New York\, becoming close with artists Darrel Ellis and Richard Brintzenhofe. His paintings often juxtaposed art historical references with buildings and landscapes of the Dominican Republic. \n \n\n\nArtwork Images\nChing Ho Cheng\, Untitled\, 1979.

SUMMARY:La Piedra Angular: Julia Wong Kcomt and Transnational/Translational Poetry
DESCRIPTION:Join writers Fabiana Chiu\, River 瑩瑩 Dandelion\, Nilton Maa\, and Jennifer Shyue for an evening of poetry celebrating Julia Wong Kcomt.\n\n\nJoin transnational Asian American artists and writers Fabiana Chiu\, River 瑩瑩 Dandelion\, Nilton Maa\, and Jennifer Shyue for an evening of multilingual poetry celebrating Julia Wong Kcomt’s legacy and the transnational/translational life she forged in the world and on the page. In March 2024\, Asian American literature lost a vital voice when tusán (Chinese Peruvian) poet Julia Wong Kcomt passed away from cancer. Over a career spanning 30 years\, Wong Kcomt plumbed themes in her work including the body\, desert landscapes\, diaspora\, love\, madness\, mothering\, plurilinguality\, and racialized womanhood in her poetry\, fiction\, and hybrid nonfiction. \nAfter sharing poetry by both Julia Wong Kcomt and the participants in English and Spanish\, we will discuss Julia’s place in her community as a “piedra angular”—a keystone—and cultural organizer\, mentor\, and central voice in tusán and Peruvian literature. What does “Asian American poetry” mean\, and where do its borders fall? How do the cultural inheritances Julia writes about continue to echo? How does a sense of place show up in Julia’s work and our own? How do Julia’s words and her themes reverberate on? \nJulia Wong Kcomt (1965–2024) was a Peruvian writer. Born into a tusán family in Chepén\, Peru\, she traveled from an early age\, and her perceptions of country borders\, different cultures\, and diversity in ethnicity and religion became a strong motivation to write. She was the author of eighteen volumes of poetry\, including Oro muerto and 18 poemas de fake love para Keanu Reeves; seven books of fiction\, including Mongolia and Aquello que perdimos en la arena; and three collections of hybrid prose. Her books in English include Vice-royal-ties and A Blind Salmon\, translated by Jennifer Shyue. \n__ \nJennifer Shyue is a translator from Spanish. Her work has appeared most recently in The Margins\, the New York Times\, and Lit Hub\, and has received support from English PEN\, the Fulbright Program\, the Cornell Institute for Comparative Modernities\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, Princeton University\, and the University of Iowa. Her translations include Julia Wong Kcomt’s poetry collections A Blind Salmon and Vice-royal-ties and Augusto Higa Oshiro’s novel The Enlightenment of Katzuo Nakamatsu. She can be found at shyue.co. \nRiver 瑩瑩 Dandelion walks with his ancestors. He is a practitioner of ancestral medicine through writing\, teaching\, energy healing\, and creating ceremony. As a poet\, he writes to connect with the unseen and unspoken so we can feel and heal. As a shamanic healing arts practitioner\, he guides people through transformation. Winner of the 2024 Lambda Literary Award for Exceptional New LGBTQ Writers\, River is the author of remembering (y)our light\, a debut chapbook on honoring matriarchs and ancestors across generations. \nA Tin House resident\, Lambda Literary fellow\, and Kundiman fellow\, River facilitates creative writing workshops\, where participants connect with their own inner and collective power. He has taught at Rutgers University-Newark\, Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health\, Restorative Justice Initiative\, Lambda Literary\, Museum of the City of New York\, and elsewhere. His work has been thrice-nominated for Best of the Net\, and is published in award-winning journals and anthologies. River loves to swim and does this work for queer and trans ancestors and descendants to come. To connect\, visit: riverdandelion.com. (Note: River 瑩瑩 Dandelion is pronounced “River Ying Dandelion.”) \nNilton Maa is a poet whose voice captures the emotional and cultural complexities of identity\, queerness\, and heritage. As a Chinese-Peruvian\, his work reflects his tusán experience\, exploring themes of belonging and the intersections of personal and collective history. Nilton has published four books\, including the novels Cuando Muere la Niebla and ¿Qué bestia escoges hoy para morir? (May 2024). His poetry collections\, rich in imagery and depth\, have been featured in international literary magazines and anthologies. \nHis work has garnered recognition\, winning awards in contests such as ‘Concurso de Microrrelatos La cruda brevedad’ and receiving an honorific mention in ‘El Mar.’ Nilton is also an editor at Nueva York Poetry Review and previously organized the Queer poetry event at Fuerza Fest\, advocating for marginalized voices in literature.Though primarily a poet\, Nilton’s passion extends to dance\, singing\, and acting\, infusing his creative pursuits with energy and authenticity. \nFabiana Chiu- Born into a family of professional photographers\, Fabiana Chiu is an educator\, visual artist/photographer\, writer\, and arts administrator of Indigenous\, Spanish and Chinese ancestry. Raised and educated in Lima\, Peru\, she is a first-generation college graduate\, a first-generation immigrant to the US and a fourth-generation Peruvian Chinese. \nFabiana studied communications and journalism at Universidad de Lima\, Eastern Kentucky University\, and The Ohio State University. She has held key positions at museums in Massachusetts\, New York and Connecticut and has spoken nationally and internationally on the topic of museums and communities. While serving as the Museum of Chinese in America’s first deputy director\, she co-curated the core exhibition “Where Is Home: Chinese in the Americas.” \n__ \nCOMMUNITY CARE & ACCESSIBILITY \nAt AAWW\, the safety and comfort of our community is our top priority.

SUMMARY:"otherland”: healing & song w/ treya lam + Dr Elizabeth So
DESCRIPTION:Warm up with an intimate musical experience that calls on healing and wellness practices rooted in traditional Chinese medicine!\n\n\nWarm up for the cold season ahead with an intimate musical and healing experience by treya lam and Dr Elizabeth So! \nAt this communal gathering\, treya lam’s multi-instrumental and vocal performances will draw from “otherland”\, a multidisciplinary grief and regeneration ritual that utilizes song\, movement\, film and storytelling to explore loss as a catalyst for radical empathy. Dr Elizabeth So will gently ease us into the cooler season with a homemade herbal tonic and guide us through the herbs and share about where we currently are in the Lunar calendar. \nAs we hold space for ourselves and each other\, we’ll ground ourselves by centering ideas of warming and rootedness\, our relationships between personal and collective wholeness and wellness\, and our sense of place and belonging here in Chinatown. \n— \nThank you to Kamwo Meridian Herbs for sponsoring this program! \n— \ntreya lam is a multi-instrumentalist composer and multidisciplinary creator whose intersecting identities as a genderqueer\, neuroexpansive\, transnational adoptee born in Taiwan and based in Lenapehoking/New York City ignites their work. lam’s atmospheric voice\, fluency on guitar\, piano\, looped viola\, percussion and found sounds culminates in liberation oriented chamber-protest songwriting and environmental scores throughout their solo work as well as collaborations across disciplines. Smithsonian Magazine states lam’s work “perfectly captures the mixture of love\, loss and hope”. \nDr. Elizabeth So is a Licensed Acupuncturist and Doctor of Chinese Medicine in NYC. She earned her master’s and doctorate degrees in the practice of Chinese medicine from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine. She considers this profession to be her life’s vocation and is wholeheartedly dedicated to the lifelong cultivation of knowledge\, wisdom\, and experience. Through the building of sincere relationships and the sharing of knowledge\, Elizabeth is always aiming to provide a thorough and immersive healing experience. Through the use of acupuncture\, moxibustion\, Chinese herbal remedies\, nutritional advice\, and lifestyle guidance she hopes to empower all of her patients to become masters of their own physical and mental well-being. \nKamwo Meridian Herbs has been the largest herbal dispensary on the east coast since 1973.

SUMMARY:Insurgent Communities: How Protests Create a Filipino Diaspora with Sharon M. Quinsaat
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Sulo: The Philippine Studies Initiative at NYU\, in collaboration with the New York Southeast Asia Network (NYSEAN). Co-sponsored by the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU. \nREGISTER \nSociologist Sharon M. Quinsaat sheds new light on the formation of diasporic connections through transnational protests. When people migrate and settle in other countries\, do they automatically form a diaspora? In Insurgent Communities\, Sharon M. Quinsaat explains the dynamic process through which a diaspora is strategically constructed. Quinsaat looks to Filipinos in the United States and the Netherlands—examining their resistance against the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos\, their mobilization for migrants’ rights\, and the construction of a collective memory of the Marcos regime—to argue that diasporas emerge through political activism. Social movements provide an essential space for addressing migrants’ diverse experiences and relationships with their homeland and its history. A significant contribution to the interdisciplinary field of migration and social movements studies\, Insurgent Communities illuminates how people develop collective identities in times of social upheaval \nSharon M. Quinsaat is an Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology at Grinnell College\, with affiliations in American Studies\, Education Studies\, Film and Media Studies\, Global Development Studies\, and Peace and Conflict Studies\, where she was Chair in 2023-2024. Sharon studies social movements\, immigrant and diaspora politics\, race and ethnicity\, and media discourse from a global and transnational perspective. Methodologically\, she is interested in interpretive qualitative design to understand people’s meaning-making processes. \nThis event is virtual only. It is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. \nAccessibility note: Please email Dale Maglalang at dam506@nyu.edu for any access needs at least two weeks in advance. \n
