EMPIRES IN MOTION is a 3-day conference taking place at the University of
Hawai’i at Mānoa from March 21-23rd. Through panels, screenings, poetry
readings, and workshops, the event will explore the literary and cultural
production of diasporic populations displaced across the Asia-Pacific by
the Japanese colonial empire and postcolonial Cold War structures, with
special attention to the legacies of Korea-Japan entanglements.

Please join a group of visiting scholars and artists for this series of
events, including a keynote and reading by zainichi Korean poet Zhong Zhang
(3/21), a discussion of the comfort women controversy with screening of the
documentary Shusenjo (3/22), panels on the cultures of colonial migration
and zainichi Korean fiction and film (3/21, 3/23), and a special
conversation with Soo Hugh, showrunner of the upcoming Apple TV+
series Pachinko
(3/22).

Organized in conjunction with the Zainichi Literary Studies Consortium and
the UH Mānoa-based Empire Studies Initiative, Empires in Motion is
sponsored by the Center for Japanese Studies, the Center for Korean
Studies, the Japan-U.S. Friendship Commission and the Northeast Asia
Council of the Association for Asian Studies, the Office of Student Equity,
Excellence and Diversity (SEED) IDEAS program, the Department of East Asian
Languages & Literatures, the Department of History, and the Department of
