The Homeland In My Body

Organized by the Asian American Writers’ Workshop, Reorienting Reads, and our friends and associates, we invite you to join us for a marathon reading uplifting and celebrating Palestinian voices as part of the 2024 Asian American Literature Festival. In the midst of profound sorrow, we seek spaces of joy and kinship, resistance and solidarity, and we look forward to joining in this space of listening and learning. The full lineup and schedule will be announced soon.

Light snacks and beverages will be provided, and we will conclude with a community Literaoke, so bring your best!

This event is free with RSVP and will be livestreamed, with livestream details coming soon. For more information about the festival, visit www.asianamericanliteraturefestival.org

COMMUNITY CARE & ACCESSIBILITY

The safety and comfort of AAWW's community is our top priority. We invite you to practice intentionality and care in your behavior and language when engaging with our programs and with each other. Violence of any kind, including but not limited to racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, ageism, class or casteism, bigotry or bias toward religion or faith, or any action or assault against marginalized identities, is not tolerated. Those who bring harm to our community in person or online are not welcome, and will be asked to exit the space.

The event will be live streamed on Zoom with auto captioning for those who cannot join us in person. Masks are required for audience members for all AAWW events; if you forget yours, one will be provided for you. We highly encourage all in person guests to take a COVID test at home prior to the event. If you have had COVID or have had known contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID in the 10 days prior, we ask you tune in for the live stream instead. Please reach out to [email protected] for additional accessibility requests, including ADA accessible bathrooms, chairs with added back support, and beyond. This space is for YOU!
