  • Eaton Hotel, Beverly Snow Ballroom (Second Floor) 1201 K Street Northwest Washington, DC, 20005 United States (map)

Join William Nu'utupu Giles, Christopher James Sablan Diaz, Lee Kava, and Terisa Siagatonu for a reading and panel which shares the work of poets from across the Pacific diaspora at Asian American Literature Festival! This reading seeks to recall the time when Oceaniaʻs vast Sea of Islands was once tightly woven together with trade and tradition, and bear witness to a new culture of forced migration created by colonial seizures and economic and climate hardships. More info on the festival is available here.
