Co-presented with Heyday Books
Join Litquake and Heyday Books at the San Francisco Public Library as we kick off Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month with a very special conversation that celebrates AAPI history while also offering hope and healing for our current moment.
Authors 
Karen Fang 
and 
Satsuki Ina
 have brought to life remarkable true stories from twentieth-century Asian American history. In her memoir 
The Poet and the Silk Girl, 
Ina pieces together secret letters, diary entries, photographs, and haiku to craft the love story of her parents, who were newlyweds when incarcerated at Tule Lake and other prison camps during WWII. In 
Background Artist
, Fang reclaims the overlooked story of Tyrus Wong, a Chinese immigrant who became an accomplished muralist, Hallmark card designer, and artist for Warner Brothers and Disney studios—despite frequent hostilities and restrictions and without receiving proper credit.
The echoes of historical injustices still reverberate today, so this conversation will also give contemporary Asian Americans and their allies powerful tools to encourage recovery, resilience, and hope for the future. In 
Louder than the Lies,
 artist and educator
 Ellie Yang Camp
 offers context, compassion, and concrete tactics for building understanding and creating coalitions to combat continued racism. And in 
The Healing Trauma Workbook for Asian Americans,
 clinical psychologist 
Helen H. Hsu
 presents culturally informed treatment methods to contend with trauma, build resilience, and forge strength in Asian American identities. Moderator 
Dora Wang
, a psychiatrist and memoirist (author of 
The Kitchen Shrink
) will guide this empowering and illuminating discussion.
