Summary
"Dear elia explores the many different kinds of unwellness that reside and proliferate among Asian Americans (and others) in the university, including pressures from immigrant families, the devaluing of critical ethnic studies and exploitation of contingent faculty, and the kinds of access and care demanded (and foreclosed) by approaches to COVID-19. Mimi Khúc offers a pedagogy of unwellness: the understanding that we are all unwell in different ways at different times, in relation to differentially disabling and enabling structures, and so we need differential care. Khúc & shows in no uncertain terms how unwellness is structural, and that being unwell is not a failure"-- Provided by publisher
