		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s no big secret, that I am gaga over Eduardo Galeano. Since being introduced to his work some years ago, something has opened and has continued to open in me. The things he does in his work, those are the things I need in the world, in my writing and reading life &#8212; I have [...]]]></description>

How about a reiteration that we need to push past the identity politics and past theorizing the work into abstraction. Where is the middle ground, or the place where we handle the work not just as Filipino American [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I ask this as a question, because I am finding it harder and harder to answer. I&#8217;ve come across a few editorial pieces and writerly blog posts about whether or not readers owe writers anything. I&#8217;ll extend the parameters of the question and ask whether specific communities owe &#8220;their&#8221; or &#8220;our&#8221; writers anything. Recently, a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[Of course, the conversation on this manuscript, and on breaking open the manuscript -- this is continued or extended in FB, though honestly, I wish, folks, that it was in an open space, that actually has space. Curse you, FB.] Some great questions have come up. First, about writing, approximating that horror of which humans [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve actually looked at the manuscript, and I am ambivalent about what I&#8217;ve been doing (and not doing) about it. Indeed, I&#8217;ve been busy with teaching, with all kinds of community work, stuff that end up taking precedence whether I want them to or not. Even though it&#8217;s better not [...]]]></description>
