This project explores the relationships of Asianness and Blackness in racialized geographies. Three onscreen spaces organize my inquiry: the Asian-owned convenience store, the college campus, and the freeway. My argument elucidates the structures-racial, carceral, and spatial-that form the possibilities for popular onscreen racial representation. In the first chapter, this project takes up the convenience store's mise-en-scene to route my exploration of Black-Korean conflict, reading Do the Right Thing (1989), the novel Native Speaker, the TV series Kim's Convenience (2016-2021), and the 2017 film Gook, as well as the documentary A Love Song for Latasha (2019). I present a theorization of Asianness that turns from binary media in/visibility discourses and centers itself on Asian American and Black feminist visions of flourishing. The second chapter analyzes the space of the college campus through the TV series Dear White People (2016-2021) and Grown-ish (2018-present), addressing the seriality of racial structures through student activism and protest. In this chapter I intervene in serial narrative studies and television studies by insisting that contemporary narrative seriality be understood as underpinned by racial logics. In my final chapter I move to the freeway through Karen Tei Yamashita's novel Tropic of Orange and the 1997 film Strawberry Fields, exploring the Asian American feminist road narrative. In this chapter I theorize Asianness as racial infrastructure capable of both transmitting and blocking the force of white supremacy and conclude by locating fugitive ways of being in racial geographies. Ultimately, my research contends that opacity, refusal, being-otherwise, and experimental form are essential to shaping an Asian American feminist politics in solidarity with Black liberation.
