In Kith, award-winning writer Divya Victor engages Indian-American diasporic culture in the twentieth century, via an autobiographical account that explores what 'kith' might mean outside of the national boundaries of those people belonging to the Indian and Southeast Asian diasporas. Through an engagement with the effects of globalization on identity formation, cultural and linguistic exchange, and demographic difference, Kith explores questions about race and ethnic difference: How do 'brownness' and 'blackness' emerge as traded commodities in the transactions of globalization? What are the symptoms of belonging? How and why does 'kith' diverge from 'kin,' and what are the affects and politics of this divergence? Historically-placed and wellresearched, Kith is an unflinching and simultaneous account of both systemic and interpersonal forms of violence and wounding in the world today."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Race $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Immigrants $z India $v Poetry. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 651 0 $a India $v Poetry. 650 7 $a American poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807348 650 7 $a Immigrants. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00967712 650 7 $a Race. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086436 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423828 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20181116054837.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8A61C264580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
