Research Interests

I am interested in the history of childhood and youth in 20th-century China. My research employs Children’s Day as a lens to investigate how war, nationalism, communism, and gender systems shaped childhood experiences and how children, in turn, influenced and shaped Chinese history. Additionally, I am keen to explore how examining children’s perspectives can enrich and potentially reshape our understanding of family dynamics, wartime conditions, and political activities in 20th-century China.

*Though the History Department uses the name Pauli Murray Hall for our building, on official maps you will find it as Hamilton Hall. Joseph Grégoire de Roulhac Hamilton’s intellectually dishonest historical and archival work promoted white supremacy. In contrast, Pauli Murray marshaled unassailable evidence and analysis in the service of racial and gender equality. In July 2020, all of the departments housed in the building agreed to adopt the name Pauli Murray Hall in place of Hamilton Hall. An official request with the Chancellor is pending. For more information, please see here.
