The nineties saw a consolidation of South Asian activity all across the United States. The second generation (for our purpose defined as the children of immigrants) have now entered college campuses and are largely responsible for this flurry of activity. From the mid-1980s to the present, South Asian women too have been organising separately in women’s groups, mainly around the issue of domestic violence. As this activity continues, it is not surprising that it finds its expression as anthologies of writing – both fiction and nonfiction.

  • CUL Keller Archive Catalogue
    HANS KELLER ARCHIVE: working copy A1: Unpublished manuscripts, 1940-49 A1/1: Unpublished manuscripts, 1940-49: independent work This section contains all Keller’s unpublished manuscripts dating from the 1940s, apart from those connected with his collaboration with Margaret Phillips (see A1/2 below). With the exception of one pocket diary from 1938, the Archive contains no material prior to his arrival in Britain at the end of that year. After his release from internment in 1941, Keller divided himself between musical and psychoanalytical studies. As a violinist, he gained the LRAM teacher’s diploma in April 1943, and was relatively active as an orchestral and chamber-music player. As a writer, however, his principal concern in the first half of the decade was not music, but psychoanalysis. Although the majority of the musical writings listed below are undated, those which are probably from this earlier period are all concerned with the psychology of music. Similarly, the short stories, poems and aphorisms show their author’s interest in psychology. Keller’s notes and reading-lists from this period indicate an exhaustive study of Freudian literature and, from his correspondence with Margaret Phillips, it appears that he did have thoughts of becoming a professional analyst. At he beginning of 1946, however, there was a decisive change in the focus of his work, when music began to replace psychology as his principal subject. It is possible that his first (accidental) hearing of Britten’s Peter Grimes played an important part in this change, and Britten’s music is the subject of several early articles.

  • MEDIA RELEASE Legal Fraternity and Government Stakeholders Affirm
    MEDIA RELEASE Legal Fraternity and Government Stakeholders Affirm Support for Transgender Inclusion in Meghalaya Shillong, May 5, 2017: Legal service providers and other government stakeholders affirmed their commitment to come forward and support transgender community members in Meghalaya to protect their rights in line with Supreme Court’s NALSA judgement of April 2014. The discussion was made during a state-level workshop organized in Shillong by SAATHII and AMANA, in partnership with Meghalaya State Legal Services Authority (MSLSA). A total of 23 legal service providers, associated with MSLSA and District Legal Services Authority, six representatives from various departments including Social Welfare, Education, Health, Home and Law, as well transgender community members, associated with Shamakami, a local support group, were part of the workshop. Context: Transgender people in Meghalaya – and globally – are extremely vulnerable to harassment, discrimination, violence and sexual assault, resulting in violation of their human rights. In response to a petition filed by the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA) concerning transgender rights, the Honourable Supreme Court of India delivered a landmark judgement on April 15, 2014. The apex court recognized the need for granting full citizenship, regardless of gender assigned at birth, protecting rights and making provision of entitlements for transgender individuals. Following the judgement, the centre and state governments were directed by the apex court to implement recommendations within six months, that is, by October 15, 2014. Key recommendations in the judgment are as follows: 1. The term transgender includes pre-operative, post-operative and non-operative transsexual people, who strongly identify with the gender opposite to their biological sex.

  • Chapter One Introduction 1
    Notes Chapter One Introduction 1. Khush is a term used by a number of South Asian queers, diasporic and within South Asia, to refer to themselves. Khush literally means happy in Hindi. 2. Desi another Hindi word that means: native or from “desh.” Desh refers to one’s nation, nation of origin, or community. 3. I specifically focus on contemporary feminist anthropology and recognize that the essay as a genre is much used amongst feminists (both non- academic and academic) outside of the discipline of anthropology. 4. In order to increase the “growth rate” the reforms included an increase in foreign investments and incentives for exporters, a 20 percent depreciation of the rupee, reduction in protection to public sector industries, increase in foreign investor equity to 51 percent and rise in price of rice, steel, sugar, and electricity. 5. The cross-conditionality of the IMF and World Bank loans included struc- tural adjustment and stabilization measures involving trade and the econ- omy such as: cutting subsidies, increasing the prices of food and fertilizers, reduction of fiscal deficits, delicensing, increase in foreign investment, and devaluation of the rupee. Shastri, Vanita, “The Politics of Economic Liberalization in India,” Contemporary South Asia (1997), 6(1), 27–56. 6. For instance, listserves such as the khush list and LGBT India (and several other local list serves) have been extremely vital in connecting khush activists and scholars (especially between India, United States, United Kingdom, and Canada). 7. Anamika was a group formed in 1985, in the United States, for South Asian lesbians and by the early 1990s was no longer in operation.

Introduction The previous part of this report traced the history of the legal struggles of transgender persons for the recognition of their constitutional rights in India, the legislations that followed, the process of enumerating transgender persons and the challenges with the legislation and the enumeration process. Although the Supreme Court of India recognised their right to self-identify their gender and detailed out nine directives for the inclusion of transgender persons in 2014, the incomplete implementation of the NALSA Vs. Union of India verdict and the under-counting of transgender population by Census 2011, have had serious implications on welfare delivery to transgender persons in India.

  • Queer Spaces, Places, and Gender: the Tropologies of Rupa and Ronica
    Queer Spaces, Places, and Gender: The Tropologies of Rupa and Ronica ROKSANA BADRUDDOJA Abstract Much queer theory in America is based on white male experience and privilege, excluding people of color and severely limiting its relevance to third-world activism. Within the last decade and a half, chronicles from gay lesbian bisexual transgender intersex queer (GLBTIQ) communities within the South Asian diaspora in the United States have appeared, but the richness and contradictions that characterize these communities have been sti!ed. Too often, the limitations due to undertheorized South Asian- American lesbian, bisexual, and transsexual histories—compounded by a queer canon overwrought with the East/West and tradition/modern equations—render queer South Asian-Americans as a monolithic homog- enous category with little or no agency. In this paper, I visit paradoxes, dif- "culties, unity, and diversity by unraveling the lives of two gender-queer- identi"ed second-generation South Asian-American “women,” Rupa and Ronica. This article addresses the ways in which an often invisible and marginalized group—gender-queer second-generation South Asian-Amer- icans—accepts, manipulates, and resists hegemonic powers. I accomplish this by presenting partial data from a year-long cross-national feminist ethnographic study conducted in 2004. Keywords : South Asian-American / South Asian diaspora / second genera- tion / gay lesbian bisexual transgender intersex queer (GLBTIQ) / multicul- turalism / intersectionality / politics of location / white gaze / hegemony / American Orientalism Much queer theory in the United States is based on white male experi- ence and privilege, excluding people of color and severely limiting its rel- evance to third world activism.

  • Creating Women's Interests in the Rulemaking Process a Dissertation
    Implementing Intersectionality: Creating Women’s Interests in the Rulemaking Process A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Ashley Erin English IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Kathryn Pearson July 2016 © Ashley Erin English 2016 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned while writing a dissertation is that the idea that writing a dissertation is a completely lonely, isolating process is actually a myth. Though there were lots of times I was off writing on my own, or banging my head against the wall trying to figure things out, I was also always struck by just how many opportunities dissertation writing actually gave me to connect with others. All in all this project would not have been possible without the help of many people, and many of the connections I made or strengthened while I was working on this project were one of my favorite parts of dissertation writing. So, first and foremost, I’d like to thank my co- advisors, Kathryn Pearson and Dara Strolovitch, for their mentorship and everything they have done for me over the course of the past six years. Throughout graduate school, I always appreciated knowing that Kathryn’s door was always open and she was available to provide anything I needed – from advice on how to make my project marketable, to how to overcome any roadblocks that appeared, to simple reassurances that she believed in me, to being an excellent role model. Similarly, it was always wonderful to bounce ideas off of Dara and to learn from her own experiences conducting research on women’s organizations.
