Poet’s search for grace, justice amid historic and current anti-Asian hate
May 07, 2021
Topaz and
Seize. His work considers what it is to be "othered" in America, historically and personally. The backdrops are the legacy of the Japanese internment camp era, the impact of anti-Asian bigotry, and the experience of raising a child with a disability.
Komei Dempster is the editor of
From Our Side of the Fence: Growing Up in America’s Concentration Camps and
Making Home from War: Stories of Japanese American Exile and Resettlement.
It sounds paradoxical to call Seize an epic when it focuses on the individual, the everyday, the familiar and has a central figure who was diagnosed as “retarded, abnormal, impaired,” who hardly speaks, and who is greatly dependent on others. And yet that is the scale, importance, and achievement of Brian Komei Dempster’s second collection of poetry.

Album Review: Skeleton Friend


23 hours ago
Not too far from campus is a sign that reads, “Appleton: I hear singing when I turn down our road.” I think that all students can agree that music is never too far away on the Lawrence University campus. Whether it’s jazz bands playing on Main Hall green, people jamming to music outside on their Bluetooth speakers, recitals in Somerset or even solo dance parties in dorm rooms, music is something that unites us all.  
The university’s conservatory is a huge part of the Lawrence music scene. It’s a place for classes, lessons and bringing people together to form a band. Brock and the Pescatarians are a campus band made up of Loren Kiyoshi Dempster, Brock Daumler, Gabe Lewis and Lucian Baxter. According to their album description on Bandcamp, “Loren’s Introduction to Improvisation class gathered us out of the aether in January 2021, whereupon we spent a delightful 10 weeks creating music virtually-together, responding to the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic with our creativity and the Internet; nearly every track on this album was recorded in real time from four different geographical locations.”

Monadnock Ledger-Transcript - Performance installation coming soon


Published: 1/18/2017 6:33:13 PM
The Redfern Arts Center presents 2125 Stanley Street, a performance installation exploring notions of home on Thursday and Friday, February 9 and 10 at 7 p.m. and Saturday, February 11 at 2 p.m. at the Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery at Keene State College.
Tickets are $10 for general admission, $8 for senior citizens and youths, and $5 for KSC students. Seating is limited, so buy your tickets early to this modern dance performance about how home informs who we are. For tickets, call the Redfern Box Office at 603-358-2168 or order online at keene.edu/arts/redfern.
2125 Stanley Street invites audiences into a home that unfolds though movement and sound that exists in the present moment through intimate exchange, a home that is both familiar and yet cannot exactly be located. A collaboration between dancers/co-creators Dahlia Nayar, Margaret Sunghe Paek and cellist/composer Loren Kiyoshi Dempster, the performance explores growing up in multi-lingual/multi-cultural households and investigates questions of belonging, the challenge of creating habitat in a foreign place, and the personal embodiment of culture and cultural memory as it stems from the home.
