After three decades unhoused and addicted in Portland, Oregon, Carole Hinojosa now serves the people she used to live among. With fearless candor, Hinojosa narrates her past, including the circumstances that led her to separate from her young daughter. Ten years after a court order that changed her life, Hinojosa walks us through her days — her tireless advocacy on behalf of people whose lives she understands intimately as well as her reunion with her beloved daughter. The second book in McSweeney’s Dispatches series, If You Don’t Want To Be Punched, Don’t Punch Somebody Else: The Lives of Carole Hinojosa (McSweeney’s) provides a vital, timely, and first-hand look into our nation’s housing and homelessness crisis. Hinojosa will be joined by Dispatches co-editor Laura Lampton Scott.Buy the book: https://www.powells.com/events/carole-hinojosa-laura-lampton-scott-8-27-25
