The Ruptures of Leaving: Women Writers on Migration

Gabriela Garcia, Masha Rumer, Shugri Said Salh, Susie Meserve How do immigrant mothers navigate the world, and what do they leave their daughters when they go? Join Susie Meserve in conversation with three writers focusing on matrilineal lineages: Gabriela Garcia ("Of Women and Salt"); journalist Masha Rumer ("Parenting with an Accent"); and Shugri Said Salh ("The Last Nomad: Coming of Age in the Somali Desert"). We'll discuss the power of storytelling to connect grandmothers to mothers to daughters even when they no longer share a nationality.
