Abstract
Based on virtual ethnography, interviews, and personal experience narratives collected in 2020–2023, this study examines the stories and resiliencies of Chinese immigrant mothers in the US during the “twin pandemics” of COVID-19 and racisms. By examining critical perspectives on the concepts of resiliencies in diverse fields, including folklore studies, ecology, psychology, ethnomusicology, and public health, and integrating individual, cultural, and political resilience frameworks, this study considers how personal narratives can offer insights into our understanding of how diverse forms of resiliencies have been cultivated and played roles in constituting Chinese immigrant mothers’ racial, ethnic, and gendered subjectivities and agencies.
