Abstract
Abstract:This piece theorizes the classroom as a site of activist scholarship through the pedagogical intervention of keywords. Written in collaboration between the instructor and students from a 2022 course called "Meeting Asian/Arab American Studies," the contribution shows how particular keywords like "exclusion," "Orientalism," and "refugee" destabilize disciplinary boundaries and center SWANA diaspora studies within a curricular survey of Asian American Studies.
