Abstract

[I speak as a south Asian Indian, living, writing, and teaching in middle America. I speak as a woman intellectual who desires organic and sensual theories—the kind invoked by Gloria Anzaldúa when she speaks of her borderlands—theories of flesh, where mind and body emerge from one another. I speak as a teacher who is compelled to explain to students that our colors, our histories, our subjectivities, and are passions will always mismatch because all categories invariably leak (Trinh, 1989).]
