Abstract

2014 marked the 100-year anniversary of the voyage of the Komagata Maru, which is memorialized today as a significant example of anti-South Asian violence in Canada. In the same year as the centennial acknowledgement of the Komagata Maru's voyage, Phinder Dulai published his poetry collection, dreams/arteries (2014). Through a reading of these points of relationality, this article examines affiliations between South Asian peoples across the Pacific.
