Explores feminine dispossession and the brown diaspora through a reflection on the life of her mother, recovering otherwise silenced modes of brown mothers’ survival, disobedience and meaning-making that are often only lived out in invisible, intimate spaces. Charania conceptualizes her mother’s tongue as an object of theory and an archive of brown intimate life.
