Hello from a D.C. hotel!
This week, our guest is Ken Chen, writer, professor, and former director of the Asian American Writers' Workshop (AAWW). We discuss [6:45] Ken’s recent piece for n+1, about photojournalist and activist Corky Lee and the deep histories of class, race, and violence woven into his work, centered in Manhattan’s Chinatown. [1:03:20] We also chat about writing, publishing, and Asian American literature as a social-realist project.
In this episode, we ask:
When does a photo achieve representation?
What if we thought of Corky not as a photojournalist, but as a durational artist?
Can an identity be created through accumulation and aspiration, even through economic shifts?
Why are there so many books by Asian Americans coming out now, compared to a few decades ago?
For more, see:
* Ken on Theresa Hak Kyung Cha’s Dictée
* Repeat guest Hua Hsu on Maxine Hong Kingston, author of the classic novel, The Woman Warrior
* Ryan Lee Wong on Corky Lee’s photos of protests against police brutality
And revisit these TTSG episodes:
* Our book club with Lisa Hsiao Chen, wherein we discuss the work of performance artist Tehching Hsieh
* Working-class unity, with organizer JoAnn Lum, the director of NMASS (the National Mobilization Against Sweatshops)
* "I want you to care when people are still alive," with Yves Tong Nguyen of Red Canary Song

In the early 11th century, a group of merchants from the Amalfi Coast of Italy received permission from the Caliph of Egypt to rebuild a church and hospital in Jerusalem to care for pilgrims to the Holy Land.
They called themselves The Order of St. John of Jerusalem.
Fast forward almost one thousand years later, and this group still exist. Not only do they still exist, but they have a unique status in the world of international diplomacy.
Learn more about the Knights of Malta and their thousand-year history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
