Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Over the last three decades, migration from Asia has been increasingly feminized as women find work abroad, primarily in highly gendered labour markets such as domestic services and health care services, where they are forced to live apart from their own families. This paper examines Nanay (Mother) (2009), a testimonial play, as an example of documentary theatre. The play was written by two geographers, Geraldine Pratt and Caleb Johnston. It explores Filipina domestic workers’ experiences of maternal loss and separation, which constitute what I refer to as their “diasporic motherhood.” I focus not only on the play’s narrative but also on its multimedial and polyphonic form, and discuss how the play invites members of the Canadian public to engage actively with the migrant workers’ life stories, ethically connect with the migrant subjects, and envision an alternative future to the current exploitative condition.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
