From the dark corners of London to the busy street corners and noodle shops of modern Shanghai and New York City’s Chinatown, this panel cross-dialogue on Asian representation within pulp fiction and film noir examines the different ways in which Asians are represented within these genres at different moments in history. The panel features Henry Chang, author of Chinatown Beat and Qiu Xiaolong, author of When Red is Black and is moderated by Sukhdev Sandhu, Assistant Professor of English and Asian/Pacific/American Studies at NYU and the chief film critic for the London Daily Telegraph and author of London Calling: How Black and Asian Writers Imagined a City.
