As part of the Migrations Summer Institute, join us for a conversation with Moon-Ho Jung (Professor and Harry Bridges Endowed Chair in Labor Studies, Department of History, University of Washington) about his most recent book, Menace to Empire: Anticolonial Solidarities and the Transpacific Origins of the U.S. Security State. The book addresses these questions:

Why was the United States so obsessed with “Asians and radicals” in the early twentieth century?How was the U.S. security state borne out of the threat of transpacific revolutionary movements?How might we research and write multi-sited anti-imperial histories?The conversation will be moderated by Mark John Sanchez (Assistant Professor, Department of Asian Studies, Vanderbilt University).
