SUMMARY:This Is Now with Angie Coiro: Daisy Hernández
DESCRIPTION:Daisy Hernández joins us to discuss her provocative\, personal\, blazingly intelligent examination of who deserves American citizenship.\n\n\n\nDaisy Hernández joins us to discuss Citizenship\, her provocative\, personal\, blazingly intelligent examination of one of the most vexing questions facing the United States today: Who is\, and should be\, a citizen? \nDescribed by Jose Antonio Vargas as “the book I have always wanted to read\,” Daisy Hernández fiercely interrogates one of the most complicated subjects of contemporary life and politics: citizenship. Braiding memoir\, history\, and cultural criticism\, she exposes the truths and lies of how we define ourselves as a country and a people. Turning to her own family’s stories—her mother arrived from Colombia\, while her father was a political refugee from Castro’s Cuba—Hernández shows how the very idea of citizenship is a myth\, one of the stories we tell ourselves about the American soul and psyche. \nReframing our understanding of what it means to be an American\, Citizenship is an urgent and necessary account of the laws\, customs\, and language we use to include and exclude\, especially those who come from Latin America. With her scholar’s mind and memoirist’s gift for narrative\, Hernández weaves a story both personal and national\, while reckoning with our country’s ongoing debate about who belongs and providing fresh ways of thinking about citizenship. At once bracing\, fearless\, and tender\, Citizenship is a powerful portrait of one family’s experiences in the borderlands of citizenship and an honest illumination of the country in which we live. \nDaisy Hernández will be in conversation with journalist Angie Coiro. \nCOVID SAFETY PROTOCOLS: We strongly encourage attendees to wear masks at our events\, although they will NOT be required. We will have masks available for attendees who want them. Do NOT attend the event if you\, or any member of your family\, have any respiratory symptoms (e.g. cough\, runny nose\, and/or sore throat)\, or have had a significant exposure to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. \nACCESSIBILITY: We never want cost to be a barrier to admission for our community.
