| Video Discription | Edwidge Danticat '93 MFA and Jesmyn Ward are two of the world's most important contemporary writers. In rich, moving prose, their work highlights the emotional trauma of cultural and physical dislocation, of loss in an age of danger, dislocation, and death. Writing themselves into the narrative, emphasizing the power of place, Danticat and Ward urge their readers to come face-to-face with violence, to confront the burden of decades of radicalized, systemic oppression, and to dwell on the memory of those who have been lost. This event brings together Danticat and Ward for a campus-wide discussion on race, place, memory, and writing. Introductions by B. Anthony Bogues, Director of the Center for the Study of Slavery and Justice, Professor of Africana Studies, and Asa Messer Professsor of Humanities and Critical Theory, Brown University. Moderated by Ralph Rodriguez, Associate Professor of American Studies, Associate Professor of English, Brown University.
