Just below the surface of our booming region lie forgotten histories and persistent injustices. But local writers are providing fresh insights into our past and envisioning a more equitable, sustainable future.

Join UW Press authors Paula Becker, Jourdan Keith, Lynda V. Mapes, and David B. Williams for a lively discussion about how books can help us understand—and change—our world. Moderated by Florangela Davila of Crosscut.

Appetizers and refreshments will be served. A book signing with the authors will follow the program.
