SUMMARY:U.S. Settler Militarism and CHamoru Survival in Guåhan
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Asian American Studies Department will be hosting our second Pacific Islander Studies Research Talk by Dr. Alfred Flores:\n\n\nIn 1944 the US military began occupying privately owned land throughout Guåhan as part of its reinvasion strategy. The US government facilitated this process through the creation of the Land and Claims Commission (GLCC)\, which accelerated and legitimated the military’s condemning of these lands during World War II and the Cold War. Together\, the GLCC\, the “liberation” of Guåhan narrative\, and the Organic Act of 1950 enabled a process of US settler militarism that resulted in the US military’s occupation of approximately 50% of all land on the island in the early 1950s. Despite these draconian policies\, CHamoru land stewardship persisted through the låncho (ranch) and other forms of survival that challenged US military occupation. \nAlfred Peredo Flores is an assistant professor in the Intercollegiate Department of Asian American Studies at Harvey Mudd College. He received his Ph.D. in History from UCLA\, his M.A. and B.A. degrees in Public History and History from UCR\, and an A.A. degree in Liberal Arts from College of the Desert. His research and teaching focuses on Pacific Islander Studies with an emphasis in diaspora\, indigeneity\, labor\, militarization\, oral history\, and settler colonialism in Micronesia. Dr. Flores’ research has appeared in Amerasia Journal\, American Quarterly\, Critical Ethic Studies Journal\, Brill\, and Oxford University Press. His forthcoming book titled\, Tip of the Spear: Land\, Labor\, and US Settler Militarism in Guåhan\, 1944-1962 (Cornell University Press)\, will be released in September 2023.

SUMMARY:Never Forget: Filipinx Americans and the Anti-Martial Law Movement: A roundtable session for the 2023 Asian American Studies Conference
DESCRIPTION:Throughout Ferdinand Marcos’s 21-year reign over the Philippines\, resistance movements took shape\, continued\, and developed alongside and against the regime. While these movements formed in opposition to the brutality of Marcos’s rule (tortures\, disappearances\, and killings; political corruption and crony capitalism; censorship of the press; support for and advancement of imperialist programs)\, they also functioned as a network of political organizing that struggled against the long legacy of colonialism and racial capitalism. \nThis roundtable focuses on understanding the anti-martial law movements to discuss historical revisionism\, knowledge formation\, and Filipinx American political organizing. This session also introduces an upcoming online exhibit of rare posters from the transnational movement against Marcos’s martial law\, part of the ongoing archival process led by the Asian American Studies Center at UCLA. The collection of posters and materials were collected throughout the 1970s and 1980s as part of anti-martial law political work in Los Angeles and California and transnationally in the Philippines. \nRoundtable members include Xenia Tupas (Human rights activist and Migrante Los Angeles)\, Cathy Miraballes (Migrante Los Angeles)\, Joy Sales (Cal State LA\, Malaya Movement Los Angeles)\, Josen Diaz (University of San Diego)\, with Karen Umemoto (Asian American Studies Center\, UCLA). Moderated by Lucy Burns (UCLA).
