What does it mean when our understandings of ā€˜Border’ and ā€˜Citizen’ continuously shift? These terms have guided United States politics for decades, their instability reliant on their performance upholding the empire. How does the page function as a border? What can writers and artists offer to dismantle imperial tools everywhere? In sharing my experiences creating my project, this presentation explores anti-border and anti-deportation work through hybrid literary forms.
