"Battle for Paradise: Puerto Rico, restrictions apply*" is a photo essay by Jo Cosme that examines the tension between Puerto Rico as a marketed paradise and Puerto Rico as a lived reality.

Part of the ongoing project "Welcome to Paradise: ¡Viva Puerto Rico Libre!", the work focuses on how tourism, settler colonialism, and disaster-driven policies reshape who can remain on the archipelago and under what conditions.

Through photography and video, Cosme highlights the contrast between images designed to attract and the realities often kept out of frame - restricted access to land and beaches to the native population, rising costs of living, and the displacement of local communities. The phrase “restrictions apply” points to the fine print behind the promise of paradise, where access is uneven and shaped by power.

Rather than presenting Puerto Rico as a distant place, the work asks viewers to consider their proximity to these systems and what it means to move through them, whether as tourists, settlers, investors, or witnesses.

If you are working on a tough homework assignment or have questions about a lesson, come to the Library for Homework Help. We have volunteers who can help with math, English, social studies and science. 

We also offer Homework Help for high school students at this location: a separate, quieter high school study room will be available, with tutor support as needed. Some tutors can assist with college essays, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, biology, chemistry, or physics.

Students without homework can read and play learning enrichment games with trained tutors. 

Meals are provided by Hunger Intervention Program from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. at the Lake City Branch during Homework Help.

Thanks to the donors of The Seattle Public Library Foundation and Hunger Intervention Program for sponsoring this event.

In recognition of the 250th anniversary of the United States, our Fall 2026 Guest Curator Daniel Tam-Claiborne invites Seattle audiences to reflect on the many diasporas that shape our collective story—past, present, and still unfolding. Across three evenings aligned with significant cultural moments, writers, artists, scholars, and community leaders come together to explore the friction and fertility between heritage and assimilation: what is preserved, what is transformed, and what new forms of richness emerge when cultures meet.

Each program spotlights a distinct community—East African, Southeast Asian, and Nordic—while opening space for broader conversations about allyship, solidarity, and shared futures. Through literature, journalism, film, music, and interdisciplinary dialogue, the series celebrates contributions that are often underrecognized yet deeply woven into the civic fabric of the Pacific Northwest.

Hosted in partnership with local cultural organizations and community anchors, these gatherings are both celebratory and reflective: an invitation to listen closely, honor lived experience, and consider how stories of migration, memory, and belonging continue to redefine what America is—and who it is for.

About the Curator:

Daniel Tam-Claiborne is a multiracial author, multimedia producer, and nonprofit director. His debut novel, “Transplants,” was a finalist for the 2023 PEN/Bellwether Prize for Socially Engaged Fiction. A 2022 National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellow, he has also received fellowships and residencies from the U.S. Fulbright Program, Poets & Writers, Bread Loaf, Sewanee Writers’ Conference, the Swatch Art Peace Hotel, and others. Daniel holds degrees from Oberlin College, Yale University, and the MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College.

About the speakers:

Justin C. Key wanted to write for as long as he can remember. He blended his passions for science and writing by penning short stories in middle school and sat down to draw up his first novel while studying Biology at Stanford University. He’s been writing ever since. His short stories have appeared in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Crossed Genres, and KYSO Flash, as well as in the revolutionary children’s iPad application, FarFaria. He held a writing advice blog for several years at Scribophile.com and worked as a professional health blogger and content editor at WellnessFX while applying to medical school. Justin’s medical training richly informs his writing, and the power of story and narrative allows him to connect with patients on a deeper level. Justin lives in Los Angeles with his wonderful wife, two sons, and daughter. Even as a full-time Psychiatrist, he finds ample time to write. Just don’t ask him how he does it; he wouldn’t be able to tell you.

Lakshmi Krishnan is a physician, literary scholar, and Founding Director of Medical Humanities at Georgetown University. Lakshmi’s work spans history of medicine, literary studies, and clinical research, critically examining diagnosis, medical knowledge, and technological innovation—how doctors know, how they think they know, and what impact those stories have—including the diagnostic imagination in the age of artificial intelligence, and the pressing issues of diagnostic disparities and diagnostic error in patient care. She has also published widely on historical and contemporary pandemics. Her scholarship appears in leading journals, from JAMA to The Lancet, has been presented at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, and featured in STAT News, the History Channel, Voice of America, and Science News.
