SUMMARY:Writing Workshop | Object Lessons: Bad Diaspora Poems
DESCRIPTION:Led by poet and researcher Momtaza Mehri\, this writing workshop traces what diaspora means as a space of both collectivity and tension. Paryicipants are invited to “write around\, and through\, objects that represent the inward facing\, closely-held relationship we have to our diaspora” and each should bring along an object that speaks to their time in the Gulf as a site of centuries-deep diasporic encounters and frissons.

SUMMARY:Dubai Bibliophiles Book Club – Toni Morrison's Beloved
DESCRIPTION:The book group discusses what is arguably Morrison’s finest literary work\, a multi-layered attempt to give voice to the collective memory of African Americans that also explores notions of family\, trauma\, the repression of memory\, and of course the restoration of the historical record. Published in 1987\, it won a Pullitzer Prize and New York Times poll of critics ranked it as the best work of American fiction between 1981 and 2006. Well worth reading\, and a rich source for discussion.
