Abstract
This article considers both the material and the psychic impact of the militarization of the Pacific, focusing primarily on Marshallese poet-activist Kathy Jetnˉil-Kijiner’s first print collection, Iep Jāltok (2017). Interrogating the spatial mythologies that have made the Pacific Islands a key site for the US to test weapons and launch foreign wars, Jetnˉil-Kijiner exposes the racist and gendered logic that justifies colonial violence in the Pacific.
