SUMMARY:Tatreez Workshops and Lectures by Tatreez and Tea
DESCRIPTION:Your instructor is author and scholar Wafa Ghnaim\, founder of Tatreez & Tea! \nTatreez & Tea’s mission is to preserve Palestinian embroidery and storytelling traditions in the diaspora. Tatreez & Tea is the first of it’s kind. When Wafa first founded Tatreez & Tea in 2016\, she was the only educator solely focused on Palestinian embroidery\, traveling the US and the world. Now\, new local initiatives\, culture bearers\, “tatreez circles”\, and mentors are emerging from communities around the world like never before. The tatreez revolution has gained a beautiful momentum and now is the time to join. \nWafa’s goal in her educational classes are three-fold: educate students from art history and oral history perspectives that preserve the meanings\, stories and symbolism of traditional Palestinian embroidery motifs; teach versatile skills that allow students to eventually produce large independent projects; encourage students to become creative and grow beyond simply abiding by traditional embroidery principles. \nClick here for upcoming events! \nhttps://www.tatreezandtea.com/events

SUMMARY:Laila Lalami with Viet Thanh Nguyen (livestream) Conditional Citizens
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be an American? Author Laila Lalami joins us via livestream to discuss this question in conversation with fellow author Viet Thanh Nguyen. Drawing from her book Conditional Citizen\, she recounts her unlikely journey from Moroccan immigrant to US citizen\, using it as a starting point for her exploration of the rights\, liberties\, and protections that are traditionally associated with American citizenship. Tapping into history\, politics\, and literature\, she interrogates how white supremacy survives through adaptation and legislation\, keeping the modern equivalent of white male landowners at the top of the social hierarchy. With deeply personal stories\, Lalami invites us to explore the place of nonwhites in the broader American culture.\n\n\n\nLaila Lalami was born in Rabat and educated in Morocco\, Great Britain\, and the United States. She is the author of four award-winning novels: Secret Son\, Hope and Other Dangerous Pursuits\, The Other Americans\, and The Moor’s Account. Her essays have appeared in the Los Angeles Times\, The Washington Post\, The Nation\, Harper’s\, The Guardian\, and The New York Times. Lalami is a professor of creative writing at the University of California at Riverside. You can follow her on Twitter @LailaLalami. \nViet Thanh Nguyen is a writer\, whose novel The Sympathizer won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. He has written and edited a number of other works\, and is a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times. He is an English professor at the University of Southern California. You can follow him on Twitter @viet_t_nguyen.
