Canadian poet, scholar, editor, and activist
Roy Akira Miki , CM OBC FRSC (born 10 October 1942) is a Canadian poet, scholar, editor, and activist most known for his social and literary work.
Born in Ste. Agathe, Manitoba to second generation Japanese-Canadian parents, Miki grew up on a sugar beet farm before moving to Winnipeg .[1] [2] [3] His family was forcibly relocated West to Manitoba where he was born in 1942 on said sugar beet farm, and interned during the Second World War .[1] He earned his B.A. from the University of Manitoba , M.A. from the Simon Fraser University , and Ph.D. from the University of British Columbia .[1] [4] Miki taught contemporary literature at Simon Fraser University before retiring and holds the title of professor emeritus.[1] He lives in Vancouver . In the 1980s, Miki was a "instrumental" in fighting for redress from the federal government for the internment of Japanese-Canadians during the Second World War.[2] [4]
In 2002, Miki's book of poetry, Surrender , won the Governor General's Literary Award for poetry .[4] His poetry focuses on questions about identity, citizenship, race, and place.[4] He is the author of the critical study, Broken Entries: Race, Subjectivity, Writing (1998), In Flux: Transnational Shifts in Asian Canadian Writing (2011), The Prepoetics of William Carlos Williams (1983), and an annotated bibliography of the poet and novelist George Bowering (1990).[4]
In 2006, Miki was made a Member of the Order of Canada and received the 20th annual Gandhi Peace Award for the truth, justice, human rights, and non-violence exemplified in his redress work.[2] [5] The same year, he also received the Thakore Visiting Scholar award and the Sterling Prize in Support of Controversy.[6] In 2007, he was made a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada .[4] In 2009, he was made a Member of the Order of British Columbia .[4]
