My favorite memory from doing this was when I projected a passage from Ann Stoler’s “Carnal Knowledge and Imperial Power.” I modeled my own sense of frustration and blockage in front of my students. I showed my practice of underlining, highlighting, marginal annotation, and dictionary lookups.

My recent work moves more directly to the contemporary to ask both about the relationship between colonial pasts and colonial presents and about what I understand by \"imperial formations.\" Carnal Knowledge asks how colonial pasts, though effaced, continue to carve out the environmental and psychic debris in which people live, long after colonial polities have been dismantled. Understanding what constitutes the colonial present calls into question both the selective geographic and analytic space within which postcolonial studies has concentrated and what it has assumed characterizes a colonial situation.”",
