SUMMARY:2024 NEA Big Read Keynote: Madeline Miller in conversation with George O’Connor
DESCRIPTION:Author MADELINE MILLER will deliver the 2024 NEA Big Read Miami keynote address\, followed by a conversation with author and illustrator GEORGE O’CONNOR on the themes found in the book\, including the retelling of myths and the persistence of thousand-year old tales. \n \nMiller has been a force in bringing mythology to the masses with her bestselling novels Song of Achilles and Circe. O’Connor has created what is essentially a modern-day D’Aulaires with his bestselling middle-grade graphic novel series\, Olympians. Together\, they possess the Midas touch when it comes to retelling Greek mythology for a modern age. These stories persist after thousands of years because their themes are universal and still as true as ever. However\, most of the stories we have come to know have alternate versions as recorded by various historians. In this keynote talk\, Miller and O’Connor will discuss various themes found in Circe\, with a focus on the persistence of mythology and how perspective changes a story. \n  \nPresented in partnership with Pennington Library as part of the 2024 NEA Big Read Miami.

SUMMARY:Honoring the Orishas: An Exploration of Afro-Caribbean Mythologies and How They Still Influence Spiritual Practices
DESCRIPTION:Afro-Caribbean spiritual traditions are rich in lore and include a cast of deities with complicated backstories and personalities – as well as rituals to honor and curry their favor – that rival the Greco-Roman pantheon of gods and demigods we’re most familiar with in the United States. In Miami\, where the migration patterns of many Caribbean peoples have intersected and settled throughout history\, these spiritual traditions are known by various names: Santeria or Regla de Osha (Cuba); Voudoun (Haiti); Obeah (Jamaica); and Candomble (Brazil). These traditions\, though they vary from country to country\, are all descended from Yoruba (Western Africa/Nigeria)\, Kongo (South-Central Africa)\, Fon (West Africa)\, and Ashanti (West Africa) spiritual practices\, brought to the region by enslaved people and sustained in the “New World\,” often by cloaking them with Catholic iconography and worldviews. From generation to generation\, these ritual observances have flourished and adapted in ways unique to shifting geographies\, cultures\, and the passage of time. Now\, there is a return to recognizably West-Central African roots as modern practitioners no longer feel the need to hide these observances. In this engaging conversation\, experts in various traditions will share the stories of the Orishas and the lwa deities – who they are and what they do – to introduce\, or deepen\, our understanding of rituals practiced widely throughout the Caribbean and diaspora. Moderated by Florida International University’s Jeff Gonzalez\, assistant teaching professor of religious studies and associate dean\, Steven J. Green School of International and Public Affairs. \n  \nPresented as part of the 2024 NEA Big Read Miami.

SUMMARY:An Evening With Don Lemon on I Once Was Lost: My Search for God in America
DESCRIPTION:Renowned journalist Don Lemon always had a complicated relationship with God. He cherished the Southern Black church he was raised in but struggled with the fundamentalist rejection of his right to exist as a gay man – one who wanted to marry his longtime love in a church wedding with all the traditional trimmings. In his work as a reporter\, moreover\, he saw his fellow Americans losing faith in a higher power\, in institutions\, and in each other. Setting out to understand the place that religion has in our lives today\, Lemon turned a journalistic eye on ancient stories and found connections that sparked memories\, conversations\, and chance encounters. Then\, suddenly\, his world unraveled: In a blaze of inglorious headlines\, he was ousted from his high-profile network news job and tasked with redefining his role in the shifting media landscape. But through a year of personal changes and professional whiplash\, he kept his “eyes on the prize” and ultimately found what he was seeking: grace\, within himself and in this nation we call home. Rich with humor and Louisiana realness\, I Once Was Lost is a prayer for a country that reflects the multifaceted image of God and a clarion call to those who believe in our common humanity enough to fight for it. Moderated by author JULIO CAPÓ JR.\, history professor at Florida International University; special introduction by DAVID JOBIN\, CEO and president of Our Fund. \n  \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:An Evening With Amir Tibon on The Gates of Gaza: A Story of Betrayal\, Survival\, and Hope in Israel’s Borderlands
DESCRIPTION:On the morning of October 7\, 2023\, Amir Tibon and his wife were awakened by mortar rounds exploding near their home in Kibbutz Nahal Oz\, a progressive Israeli community less than a mile from Gaza City. Soon\, they were holding their two young daughters in the family’s reinforced safe room\, urging them not to cry as gunfire echoed just outside the door. With his cell phone battery running low\, Tibon texted his father: “The girls are behaving really well\, but I’m worried they’ll lose patience soon and Hamas will hear us.” Some 45 miles north\, Amir’s parents had just cut short an early morning swim along the shores of Tel Aviv. Now\, they jumped in their Jeep and sped toward Nahal Oz\, armed only with a pistol but intent on saving their family at all costs. In The Gates of Gaza: A Story of Betrayal\, Survival\, and Hope in Israel’s Borderlands (Little\, Brown and Company)\, Tibon tells this harrowing story in full for the first time. He describes his family’s ordeal and the bravery that ultimately led to their rescue alongside the histories of the place they call home and the systems of power that have kept them and their neighbors in Gaza in harm’s way for decades. More than one family’s odyssey\, The Gates of Gaza is the intimate story of a tight-knit community and the broader saga of war\, occupation\, and hostility between two national movements – a conflict that has not yet extinguished the enduring hope for peace. \n  \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:An Evening With Alice McDermott on Absolution
DESCRIPTION:American women have been mostly minor characters in the literature of the Vietnam War\, but in Alice McDermott’s Absolution they take center stage. Tricia is a shy newlywed\, married to a rising attorney on loan to navy intelligence; Charlene is a practiced corporate spouse and mother of three\, a beauty and a bully. In 1963 Saigon\, the two form a wary alliance as they balance the era’s mandate to be “helpmeets” to their ambitious husbands with their own inchoate impulse to “do good” for the people of Vietnam. Sixty years later\, Charlene’s daughter reaches out to Tricia and together they look back at their time in Saigon\, revisiting that pivotal time and discovering how their own lives as women on the periphery – of politics\, of history\, of war\, of their husbands’ convictions – have been shaped and burdened by the same sort of unintended consequences that followed America’s tragic interference in Southeast Asia. Moderated by VIRGINIA HARTMAN\, author of The Marsh Queen: A Novel.

SUMMARY:An Evening With Erik Larson on The Demon of Unrest: A Saga of Hubris\, Heartbreak\, and Heroism at the Dawn of the Civil War
DESCRIPTION:Master storyteller Erik Larson offers a gripping account of the chaotic months between Abraham Lincoln’s November 6\, 1860\, election and the Confederacy’s shelling of Sumter – a period marked by tragic errors and miscommunications\, enflamed egos and craven ambitions\, personal tragedies and betrayals. Lincoln himself wrote that the trials of these five months were “so great that\, could I have anticipated them\, I would not have believed it possible to survive them.” At the heart of this suspense-filled narrative are Maj. Robert Anderson\, Sumter’s commander and a former slave owner sympathetic to the South but loyal to the Union; Edmund Ruffin\, a vain and bloodthirsty radical who stirs secessionist ardor at every opportunity; and Mary Boykin Chesnut\, wife of a prominent planter\, conflicted over both marriage and slavery and seeing parallels between them. In the middle of it all is the overwhelmed Lincoln\, battling with his duplicitous secretary of state\, William Seward\, as he tries desperately to avert a war that he fears is inevitable\, one that will eventually kill 750\,000 Americans. Drawing on diaries\, secret communiques\, slave ledgers\, and plantation records\, Larson gives us a political horror story that captures the forces that led America to the brink – a dark reminder that we often don’t see a cataclysm coming until it’s too late. Moderated by DAVID LERNER SCHWARTZ\, award-winning author and professor of English in the MFA program at the University of Central Florida. \n  \nSponsored by

SUMMARY:An Evening With Clarissa Ward on On All Fronts: The Education of a Journalist
DESCRIPTION:In this strange age of crisis where there really is no front line\, conflict journalist Clarissa Ward has moved from one hot zone to the next. With multiple assignments in Syria\, Gaza\, Ukraine\, and Afghanistan\, Ward – who speaks seven languages – has been based in Baghdad\, Beirut\, Beijing\, and Moscow. She has seen and documented the violent remaking of the world at close range\, and with deep empathy finds a way to tell the hardest stories. On All Fronts: The Education of a Journalist is the riveting account of her singular career and of journalism in this age of extremism. Following a privileged but lonely childhood\, Ward found her calling as an international war correspondent in the aftermath of 9/11. From her early days in the field\, she was embedded with marines at the height of the Iraq War and reporting from the center of Israel’s war with Hezbollah. Soon she was on assignment all over the globe\, and from her multiple stints entrenched with Syrian rebels to her deep investigations into the Western extremists who are drawn to ISIS\, Ward covered Bashar al-Assad’s reign of terror without fear and with courage and compassion. Hers is an unforgettable story of one extraordinary journalist – and of a changing world. \n  \nSponsored by

As we commemorate 50 years of creative freedom in Portuguese literature\, we’ll explore the impact of these historical milestones on the art of writing. \n  \nJoining us are JOSÉ LUÍS PEIXOTO\, distinguished Portuguese writer\, poet\, and recipient of the 2001 José Saramago Award\, whose work has been published and translated into 30 languages\, and JUDITE CANHA FERNANDES\, Portuguese poet\, novelist\, dramatist\, and recipient of the 2020 Best Narrative Fiction Book award from the Portuguese Society of Authors. She is currently working on an essay about the Carnation Revolution. Moderated by San Diego State University professor RICARDO VASCONCELOS\, PH.D.\, we’ll delve into the unique contributions of these two remarkable voices in Portuguese literature. A performance by Arte Total including contemporary dance and a spoken-word poem\, Musa\, by SOPHIA DE MELLO BREYNER\, will open the evening;  “A Taste of Portugal” networking session with Portuguese wine and delicacies will follow. \nPresented in partnership with Susana Cerqueira\, founder of Sete Luas Books\, and Carolina Rendeiro\, CEO of Connect2Global. This event is sponsored by the Luso-American Foundation for Development (FLAD)\, the Embassy of Portugal to the United States of America\, Ministry of Foreign Affairs\, and Republica Portuguesa – Cultura/ Direcção-Geral das Artes. \nSPONSORED BY
