Genealogy of Thought
I am what I am because
You are what you are, and
You are what you are because
Your mother is what she is, and
Your mother is what she is because
Her mother was what she was, and
Her mother was what she was because
A seamstress in Antwerp caught the boat over to Maine, and
That, of course, is why
Your grandmother was what she was, and
Your mother is what she is, and
You are what you are, and
I am what I am
And here we all are,
Reading this poem together!

We shouldn't have gone ... The parents ought to have packed us off home. They should have, you know. Lots of people did that. Maybe that would have been best. For them at least, because now they're stuck with hybrids for children. And they don't like it. They don't like it at all. It offends them. They think we do it on purpose, so it offends them. And I don't know what to do about it, Tambu, really I don't. I can't help having been there and grown into the me that has been there. But it offends them - I offend them.

Nervous Conditions
'Magic, prophecy, the help of herbalists and the desire to radically refashion bodies all become means of both eking a living in this topsy-turvy world and, for the marginalised, of finding a way to make a place for themselves under conditions that seem to defy reason and logic.'
Usually I’m angry for good reason, reasons I’ll only bother to clarify if I love you. Sometimes I’m resentful not because people are disrespecting my culture, but because I’m bitter about what I don’t know. This face and this name give rise to assumptions about access to culture I haven’t always had. At other times, I stubbornly refused to learn: speaking Chinese is only cool or impressive when you’re not Chinese. As a child I was dismissive – why bother when I already have the name and the face? For years I was embarrassed to speak Chinese in public. It might be urbane for Kevin Rudd, but people might think I couldn’t speak English. Like many non-Indigenous people of colour, I used language to legitimise my presence in this country. I offered my Australian accent like an excuse for my face. The accent is crucial; more important than any other measure of linguistic competence, it offers immediate protection. But this is only for the bearer, the soon-to-be-disillusioned offspring of adult migrants whose voices were stuck in another country. My generation was promised equality after assimilation; mostly, we sold our parents out.
