“I think too often writers of color and other marked or marginalized writers are expected to ‘sell’ their marked identity—i.e., ‘read this book if you want to know what it’s like to be brown/queer/poor/etc.’” @thiriimkm discusses NAMES FOR LIGHT. bit.ly/3l5HCWZ

In conversation with Anindita Ghose, academic-writer Charmaine Craig speaks about her novel ‘Miss Burma’ which intertwines the fate of a country & a family by war, revolution, desire and loss.

I'm in the @nytimes reporting on how women are remaking workplaces to suit *their* needs. If you're feeling scared and burnt out (who isn't?) heading into the fall, you'll find solidarity AND practical strategies in here for navigating the weeks ahead. nytimes.com/2021/09/10/us/…

Very honored to be able to host @brandonshimoda's Hiroshima Library at Counterpath in Denver.

After two years @jamuseum, the Hiroshima Library is traveling to @CpPress in Denver, CO. Love to Clement Hanami, Kristen Hayashi, and @Karen_Ishizuka at JANM for taking such good care of the library, for giving it a dream home. Read about the library here: bit.ly/2u8FHJE
