Now Jenny Liou leads us through a critical rethinking of invasive species. This is the episode where we tell shories about identity\/politics, our entanglement with weeds, the invasive vs. native ideology and more. Jenny Liou is an English professor at Pierce College and an avid naturalist and ecological restorationist. She likes thinking and writing about bodies \u2013 bodies of thought, the mineral body of the loess-covered plains where she grew up, bodies of water \u2013 the rivers along whose banks she has explored the Pacific Northwest and her family\u2019s history in China, the body of the Pacific which divides her from that part of her family. She lives and writes near that ocean in Tacoma, Washington. \u201cAm I an Invasive Species?\u201d in Hight Country News from July 9, 2020 Washington Native Plant Society South Sound Chapter \u2013 \u201cThe Invasion that Sustains Us: Himalayan Blackberries and Invasive and National Discourses in Native Plant Conservation\u201d https:\/\/www.wnps.org\/events\/1527 Samples of Jenny\u2019s work and more on her website https:\/\/www.jennyhwayuliou.com Muscle Memory from Kaya Press https:\/\/kaya.com\/authors\/jenny-liou It takes a community to keep a podcast going.
