I am a PhD student in Anthropology at the CUNY Graduate Center. I’m interested in the entanglement of labor migration and forms of colonialism in history and the present. Regarding the study of China, I’m interested in teaching topics related to rural-urban migration, development and poverty relief, contemporary life of red archives, and ideas of land and home. I expect the CACI fellowship will allow me to ground the teaching of social topics on China in the interest and need of CUNY students and rank and file New Yorkers.
