OMG you are so inspiring!!! I'm a 7th grader and i luv ur books!!! Yellowface was so interesting. I'm still pretty young so i don't understand that deeper meaning stuff but I fell in love with the book. 🤟
Sure the interviewer was silly and more loose but I feel like compared to many author interviews her questions went a little deeper and were much more interesting
Rebecca wins on authentic. I agree to Yellowface. --- **Cultural nationalism** is often considered more authentic as it is deeply rooted in the lived traditions, customs, and collective identity of a nation.
she kind of sucks, I don't know her personally but her work sucks. Yellows was insufferable. Babel is basically Harry Potter with a over pretentious title. The poppy war is like wheel of time, if someone just recently discovered about the Rape of Nanjing and also Harry Potter but female. She's not as good as everyone claims her to be. She's really just Mid, and looking to make a buck.
**Ponniyin Selvan** is primarily **culturally national**, as it celebrates the rich heritage, history, and traditions of the Chola dynasty in Tamil Nadu. The novel reflects the cultural pride of the region, showcasing its art, architecture, and social customs. While it contains intellectual depth in its portrayal of politics and power, its core appeal lies in its connection to the cultural and historical identity of Tamil people.
Rebecca was great, but the moderator is insufferable-- always interjecting with random personal anecdotes that nobody cared about, wasting valuable time that could be used for more questions
Yes, Theodore in *Her* is somewhat similar to Juniper Song in *Yellowface* in the sense that both write on behalf of others, blurring personal identity. Theodore ghostwrites heartfelt letters for clients, while Juniper's anonymity allows for a loss of individual identity in her writing.
True, there is generally less conflict between culture police and encyclopedias compared to dictionaries, as encyclopedias provide broader, contextual information rather than rigid definitions.
People who wrote dictionaries were sometimes viewed as "thieves" by the cultural gatekeepers, or "culture police," because they were seen as taking control over language, codifying it in a way that might strip it of its fluid, lived, and evolving nature. Like cultural appropriation, dictionary writing could be viewed as an act of taking ownership of something communal and turning it into a static, authoritative form. By creating official definitions, they were essentially claiming power over how words are understood and used, potentially erasing the nuances, dialects, or meanings unique to specific communities. Arguing from a "yellow face" perspective-where outsiders take ownership of cultural symbols or expressions-these dictionary makers could be accused of capturing a living, breathing culture in print, freezing it, and reinterpreting it to fit their version of legitimacy, often alienating or misrepresenting the people who actually lived and used the language. It wasn't just recording words; it was controlling how culture would be remembered. Drafted by AI❤🎉 Encyclopaedia is cool. ❤🎉

Replacing the dictionary with AI in Searle's Chinese Room could challenge his argument by suggesting the AI might exhibit understanding, not just symbol manipulation.

Juniper Song could consider writing in the wuxia genre, a popular Chinese genre known for its martial arts heroes and fantastical elements. This would allow her to explore Chinese history and culture without directly focusing on labor history, which might be seen as sensitive or controversial. Drafted by AI❤🎉

Not necessarily. A refugee crisis may be more about where are all these new people coming into a country going to live, how are they going to be fed, are there enough jobs, hospitals and schools for everyone etc.

What an adorable person she is, a very bright sparkling being.
Her thoughts on cultural appropriation and who gets to write what story is spot on and one I share.
Very insightful. I didn't know she was this wise.
You can tell whenever she speaks. She has so much wisdom
Mod was hard to deal with and you could see it in Rebecca's face at times.
Thank you for sharing this conversation 🙌
