Please join us with a reading by poets Asiya Wadud and Brandon Shimoda, whose writings offer ethical attentiveness toward the lives, afterlives, memories, landscapes, and dreamworlds of the ancestral, diasporic, and migrant.

Asiya Wadud is the author of Crosslight for Youngbird, day pulls down the sky/ a filament in gold leaf (written collaboratively with Okwui Okpokwasili), Syncope and the forthcoming No Knowledge Is Complete Until It Passes Through My Body. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, where she teaches poetry at Saint Ann’s School.

Brandon Shimoda is the author of several books of poetry and prose, most recently The Grave on the Wall (City Lights), which received the PEN Open Book Award. He's currently (maybe always) writing a book on the afterlife of Japanese American incarceration. He lives in the desert (Tucson, AZ).

Presented as part of the course ER&M 363: Ethnic Studies and the Social Imagination, with support from the Ethnicity, Race, and Migration Program at Yale University. For questions, please contact maryam.parhizkar at yale.edu<mailto:maryam.parhizkar at yale.edu>.
