CLICK HERE TO REGISTER FOR THE ZOOM WEBINAR

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Viet Thanh Nguyen writes incisively, acerbically, and hilariously about power, trauma, and the meanings we make out of a fractured world. As a storyteller and critic, he encourages us to contend with past and present, and to generate more liberatory futures. Join Duke History professor Adriene Lentz-Smith for a discussion with Nguyen on Struggle, Trauma, Memory, and the Power of the Fictions We Weave.
