SUMMARY:Exploring Home\, Exile and What We Carry: Writing Memoirs
DESCRIPTION:How can writing help you reclaim life\, forge new languages and build a brighter future after experiencing exile or separation from one’s home? How can self-awareness expand our writing and self in increasingly stressful sociopolitical contexts? In this workshop\, we will answer these questions and examine the ordinary events of our lives – our location\, language\, movements\, dreams\, memories\, desires and more – and purposefully use writing as a tool to resist being a passive onlooker in our life and the world. Led by Beaudelaine Pierre. Funded by Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. \nRegister for this event on the Hennepin County Library website here. \nThe link to the live online event will be emailed to registrants in advance. Learn more about participating in virtual library events. \nBeaudelaine Pierre is a journalist\, scholar and novelist who writes about her native Haiti and her adopted Youwès (U.S.). She is the author of the award-winning collection of essays and stories “You May Have the Suitcase Now” (New Rivers Press\, 2021)\, the co-editor of the trilingual anthology “How to Write an Earthquake / Comment écrire et quoi écrire / Mou pou 12 Janvye” (AHB\, 2011) and author of the debut novel “Testaman” (Bon Nouvèl\, 2002). Pierre is currently researching and exploring the ethical\, scientific and humanist representations of the situation of Temporary Protected Status holders in the Youwès.
