SUMMARY:Solito\, Solita Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 4\, 7:30pm\nPegasus Books Downtown \nJoin the editors and two narrators of Solito\, Solita for a discussion of this powerful new book from Voice of Witness and Haymarket Books. Solito\, Solita tells the stories of youth refugees fleeing their home countries and traveling for hundreds of miles seeking safety and protection in the United States.

She recently graduated from SFSU. \nEditors:\nSteven Mayers is a writer\, oral historian\, and professor of English at the City College of San Francisco. \nJonathan Freedman is a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist\, author\, and writing mentor at the City College of San Francisco. \n  \n\n\n\n\nEvent date:\n\nThursday\, April 4\, 2019 – 7:30pm\n\n\n\nEvent address:\n\n\n\nPegasus Books Downtown\n2349 Shattuck Avenue\n\nBerkeley\, CA 94704
