Envisioning and Enacting a Pan-Asian Political Identity: The Cultural Politics of the First ‘Stop Asian Hate UK’ Protests

Bao, Hongwei

Abstract

This article focuses on the opportunities and challenges of the newly emerged pan-Asian political identity following the recent transnational ‘Stop Asian Hate’ movement. Using the recent ‘Stop Asian Hate’ Birmingham rally as a case study, this article contends that the pan-Asian identity enacted in the ‘Stop Asian Hate’ movement has the potential to forge new forms of racial and ethnic solidarities.
