Excerpt: The study of settler colonialism in Asian American, Asian Canadian, and Asian diaspora studies offers important challenges to long-standing rubrics of racial “minority” politics, immigration and citizenship rights, and conceptions of national and transnational mobility. Since the groundbreaking publication of Asian Settler Colonialism: From Local Governance to the Habits of Everyday Life in Hawai‘i in 2008 (which grew out of a special issue of Amerasia Journal in 2000) (Fujikane and Okamura 2008), there has been a decisive shift toward interrogating the role Asian communities play in extending or disrupting the structural dynamics of colonial dispossession, displacement, and disposal that are imposed on Indigenous populations in the Americas, Australasia, Africa, Asia, and the Pacific Islands.
