Enjoyed providing comments on an excellent presentation by @jht283, who weaved together well the subfields and sources of US & the World, Chinese Diaspora, transpacific, and education histories to tell the understudied transpacific history of Nanyang University in Singapore.
Look forward to my @globalhks_UC book talk & discussion with @ShellyPSChan. Having lived in California & studied at UCSB, I'm delighted to have the chance to share my book in California, albeit virtually! Join us on Apr 5 (noon PST/*8pm UK time) on zoom! #hkhist#hkhistory
What does it mean to do China studies at this global conjuncture? What has “transnational” got to do with it? What future possibilities might the “transnational” still bring? An interdisciplinary conversation: Stephen Acabado, Michael Berry, Hsin-Chieh Chang, Nellie Chu...
Hot off the press! Angelina Chin’s new book Unsettling Exiles: Chinese Migrants in Hong Kong and the Southern Periphery @ColumbiaUP is out. Grab a copy!
If anyone is in the New York area today, I am giving a talk at noon @ WEAI on how the Nanyang was not Southeast Asia. https://t.co/Vb9wocMtGE Please come!
