This panel invites papers that apply approaches in indigenous studies and epistemologies to the study of study Japanophone cultural, intellectual, and aesthetic productions. Given the long history and global legacy of Japanese colonialisms and settler colonialisms, this panel considers the entangled histories of indigenous expropriation in and beyond the Asia-Pacific as not only pertinent to, but also crucial to the decolonization of Japanophone media and literary studies. We welcome especially applicants who are early career scholars, advanced graduate students, and independent scholars whose work focuses on the intersectional study of media (broadly defined) from the critical perspectives of Global Indigenous Studies, critical race studies, transpacific studies, Pacific Islander Studies, Ainu Studies, Okinawan Studies, and decolonization theory.
