SUMMARY:Bigotry as a Monster: Black Heroes Beyond the Black Panther
DESCRIPTION:Racism and hatred\, grief and loss\, form actual monsters that only the Sangerye family can fight in David Walker’s Bitter Roots series. Kwanza Osajeyfo’s Black AF universe takes a macabre turn in Widows and Orphans\, as Black babies with superpowers are bartered and sold. And Brandon Thomas’ Excellence imagines a world in which magic is to be used by the oppressed as a tool to improve the lives of the “better class.” Join these three storytelling masters as they discuss how they create such chilling “fantastical” worlds. \nModerated by illustrator Khary Randolph.

SUMMARY:An Evening With Louise Erdrich & Heid E. Erdrich
DESCRIPTION:  LIVE! Event starts Friday\, November 20 @ 6 p.m. \nTwo sisters present their latest works in a conversation informed by the dynamic of the familiar. \nLouise Erdrich’s novel The Night Watchman explores themes of love and death with lightness and gravity. It’s a fictional world populated by memorable characters forced to grapple with the worst and best impulses of human nature\, that touches upon the very real tragedy of missing Native American women. \nIn her collection of poems Little Big Bully\, Heid E. Erdrich offers personal myth\, American and Native American contexts\, and allegories driven by women’s resistance to narcissists\, stalkers\, and harassers. The collective experience of Indigenous people\, from ecosystem collapse due to the near-extinction of bison to the present epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, underlie her prose. \nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:In Conversation: On Leave the World Behind
DESCRIPTION:2020 National Book Award Finalist  \nKeenly attuned to the complexities of parenthood\, race\, and class\, the critically acclaimed Leave the World Behind tells the story of two families\, strangers forced together over a long weekend gone terribly wrong. Shielding themselves in a charmingly secluded house that’s suddenly become a dubious refuge from whatever monstrous thing may be out there\, the inhabitants trapped inside Alam’s potentially apocalyptic world inexorably careen toward what the New York Times calls an “undeniably haunting” end. He is speaking with writer Bryan Washington\, author of the recently released novel Memorial\, an unconventional rom-com\, of which Entertainment Weekly said: “Wryly funny\, gently devastating … Washington’s hand is effortless – smooth dialogue\, a love for good food\, and his vibrant\, sprawling\, gradually gentrifying hometown – in inviting you into a nuanced love story that sticks to you like the Texas heat.”
