SUMMARY:Displaced at Home: An American Tale
DESCRIPTION:Moderated by Joan Hilty\, editorial director at Nickelodeon. \nJoin Sophie Yanow (The Contradictions)\, Mike Hawthorne (Happiness Will Follow)\, and Kiku Hughes (Displacement) as they discuss stories that tackle the hard truths. Using the perceptive lenses of memory and time\, they focus on what’s really at the bottom of a lingering sense of displacement in what should be home – that it’s more than the sobering realization of who you are in your environment\, but the even deeper sense of reckoning experienced when you recognize who you are seen as – and how that affects who you become.
