'The 7th Asian Australian Identities biennial conference Genealogies of Identity Politics, held at the Immigration Museum in Melbourne, 7-8 November 2019, marked the 20th vibrant year of the Asian Australian Studies Research Network, acronymically known as AASRN. Even as we celebrated and commemorated two decades of camaraderie, catch-ups, collaborations, community activism and collegial support, we also took the opportunity to reflect, reminisce and ruminate over the changing profiles, positions and perspectives of, on, and by, Asian Australian identities. Given the rich chronicles and conversations unfolding at the conference, our task was accompanied by anticipating and forecasting what Asian Australia might look like in the future and what its animating preoccupations may be.'

'I founded Peril in 2006 when there were no other Asian Australian specific publishing platforms. Nowadays fourteen years later there are five publications, Peril, Mascara Literary Review, Liminal, Djed Press and Pencilled In. Which leads to the question, are publications like Peril still necessary? This article sums up Peril’s history, reflects on where we are now and whether Peril is still necessary in the Australian cultural landscape.' (Introduction)
