Reviews
" Queering the Global Filipina Body makes a significant contribution to Asian American Studies." -- QED, "An epistemological interruption of Filipinx and queer studies' approaches to nationalism and diasporic belonging, Queering the Global Filipina Body calls for new modes of political organizing for those indebted to migrant and queer of color life." -- Feminist Formations, "In this important book, Velasco critically assembles and analyzes an eclectic queer Filipinx American diasporic archive that includes films, video-art, performances, websites, and a heritage language program. She develops smart and well-written close readings of these materials, and in doing so, she reveals how Filipinx American cultural producers critique the heteropatriarchal nation in the Philippines and US. Velasco's Queering the Global Filipina Body is a must read in Filipinx Studies, Asian American Studies, feminist studies, LGBTQ Studies and migration studies."--Kale Bantigue Fajardo, author of Filipino Crosscurrents: Oceanographies of Seafaring, Masculinities, and Globalization, "A rich analysis of the transnational circuits of culture, labor, goods, and ideology circulating around the material and symbolic body of the Filipina. With its uniquely nuanced documentation and theorization of multiple, competing nationalisms, this book clear-sightedly accounts, on the one hand, for heteropatriarchy within the Filipino diaspora and, on the other hand, the limits of queer white definitions of desire and liberation."--Sarita See, author of The Decolonized Eye: Filipino American Art and Performance
