ABSTRACT
KHC: In your later work on race and ethnicity, diaspora seems to have become a central figure-one of the critical sites on which the question of cultural identity is articulated; bits and pieces of your own diasporic experiences have, at certain points, been narrated quite powerfully, to address both theoretical and political problematics.1 What I am interested in is how the specificities of the various historical trajectories came to shape your diasporic experiences, your own intellectual and political position.
