Jane Komori
Provost’s Distinguished Faculty Fellow
Jane Komori’s research focuses on race, labor, and ecology. Her current book project investigates the labor history and self-organization of Asian immigrant and Indigenous workers in Western Canada’s primary resource industries from the 1850s to the mid-twentieth century. The book theorizes the way that racial forms—specifically the racialization of labor—are produced at the intersection of settler colonialism, resource extraction, and resultant environmental change.
