SUMMARY:Author Danny Ramadan: Crooked Teeth
DESCRIPTION:Danny Ramadan\, queer refugees advocate and author of The Foghorn Echoes\, The Clothesline Swing\, and Salma children’s series\, visits for his new memoir\, Crooked Teeth: A Queer Syrian Refugee Memoir\, a singular achievement in which a master storyteller learns that his greatest story is his own. \nRegistration is not required\, but helps us anticipate audience size. If you’d like to RSVP\, please do so here! \n“Writing this memoir is a betrayal.” So begins this electrifying personal account from Danny Ramadan\, a celebrated novelist who has long enjoyed the shield his fiction provides. Now\, to tell the story of his life\, he must revisit dark corners of his past he’d rather forget and unearth memories of a city he can no longer return to. \nStarting with his family’s humble beginnings in Damascus\, he takes readers on an epic\, border-crossing journey: to the city’s underground network of queer safe homes; to a clandestine party at a secluded villa in Cairo; through Arab Spring uprisings across the Middle East\, a reckless hoax that threatens the safety of Syria’s LGBTQ+ community\, and a traumatic six-week imprisonment; to beaches and sunsets with friends in Beirut; to an arrival in Vancouver that’s not as smooth as it promised to be; and ultimately to a life of hard-won comfort and love. \nWhat emerges is a powerful refutation of the oversimplified refugee narrative—a book that holds space for joy alongside sorrow\, for nuance and complicated ambivalences. \n“An engrossing account of one queer man’s journey through a life filled with danger\, yes\, but also great joy. A beautiful read that adds nuance to the stories of so many refugees.” —Garrard Conley\, author of Boy Erased \nDanny Ramadan is a Syrian-Canadian author and LGBTQ+ refugees advocate. He is the author of The Foghorn Echoes\, The Clothesline Swing\, and the award-winning Salma children’s series. His work has won the Lambda Literary Award\, the Publishing Triangle Award\, the Independent Publisher Book Award\, and was longlisted for Canada Reads. His books are translated into multiple languages and celebrated worldwide. Since arriving in Canada\, he has raised over $300\,000 to support queer and trans refugees. He lives in Vancouver\, Canada.

SUMMARY:Mahmoud Khalil: No Land to Stand On: Notes from Detention
DESCRIPTION:“Are you Mahmoud Khalil?” The question marked the start of a politically charged odyssey that took the Palestinian graduate student and legal resident from his pregnant wife and home in New York City\, transported him across the country\, and locked him up in a Louisiana detention camp under threat of deportation. His “crime”: exercising his right to free speech at Columbia University\, where he emerged as a leading voice against the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza. No Land to Stand On is his indelible account\, the story of a man confronting the reality that he had become target number one for a lawless regime shredding basic rights. \nDrawing on his prison diary and writing in vivid\, page-turning detail\, Mahmoud Khalil conjures the despair and cruelty of ICE detention\, where prisoners can vanish overnight and visiting families risk their own deportation. There is humanity\, too\, in the men’s acts of care — their mutual help with documents\, the prison cake they make after Mahmoud can only follow the birth of his son on the public payphone. In tandem\, he tells the multi-generational story of a family expelled from Palestine to a Syrian refugee camp\, of flight from Assad’s regime to Lebanon\, of arrival in an America that promised permanence and protection\, and of the enduring struggle for Palestine.

SUMMARY:Layli Long Soldier w/ Lena Khalaf Tuffaha at Seattle Public Library
DESCRIPTION:Layli Long Soldier\,author of WHEREAS\, visits Seattle Public Library Central to discuss We\, her extraordinary work of poetry\, essay\, and art\, longlisted for the 2026 National Book Award. She is joined by National Book Award winning poet Lena Khalaf Tuffaha.\n\n\nRegister here! \nRegistration is required. This event is held in the Microsoft Auditorium on Level 1 of SPL Central Branch. \nIn We\, Layli Long Soldier examines what it means to be in community\, to be in relation with family\, nation\, history\, and language. We is the first-person plural\, the pronoun of inclusion in English. It is also Wé\, the Lakota word meaning “blood”—what is shared and what is shed. \nIn this ingenious and insightful arrangement of poems\, lyric essays\, and her own visual artworks presented in full color\, Long Soldier creates unique spaces of collaboration\, mentorship\, and shared knowledge. The 184 X’s signed to a broken treaty\, the fringes of a winged dress braided in honor of children lost to Indian boarding schools\, and intricate Lakota star quilts become shapes and patterns that convey collective kinship\, memory\, and grievance. “From this day forward\,” Long Soldier writes\, “I declare a war of language.” \nWe is a visionary new collection by a writer and artist whose unfolding works are among the most groundbreaking of our time. \nLayli Long Soldier is a poet\, artist\, and citizen of the Oglala Lakota Nation. She is the author of WHEREAS\, a finalist for the 2017 National Book Award and winner of the 2018 PEN/Jean Stein Book Award and the 2018 National Book Critics Circle Award. Long Soldier has also received a 2016 Whiting Award\, a 2021 Academy of Arts and Letters Award for Literature\, the 2021 Michael Murphy Memorial Poetry Prize in the UK\, and the 2025 C.D. Wright Award for Poetry from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts. In 2024\, she received an Emmy Award for her poetry in the documentary film Lakota Nation vs. United States. She teaches in the MFA Creative Writing Program at the Institute of American Indian Arts and resides in Santa Fe\, New Mexico. \nLena Khalaf Tuffaha is the author of three award-winning books of poetry\, Water & Salt (Red Hen\, 2017)\, Kaan and Her Sisters (Trio House\, 2023)\, and Something About Living (University of Akron\, 2024). Something About Living won the 2024 National Book Award\, an Arab American Book Award\, a Washington State Book Award\, and an American Library Association’s Notable Book. Tuffaha is also an essayist and translator. Her work has been published in journals including Michigan Quarterly Review\, Mizna\, the Nation\, Prairie Schooner\, and Poets.org. In 2022\, she was the curator of the poetry translation series Poetry from Palestine at the Baffler magazine. She won the John Fredrick Nims Memorial Prize for Translation from the Poetry Foundation for her translations of the late Zakaria Mohammed’s poems in that series. She is currently translating a manuscript of his selected works. \n\nTuesday Oct 13th\, 2026\n\n\n\n7:00 PM\n\n\n–\n\n\n8:30 PM\n\n\n SPL Central Branch
